Description: Translation (Htoi Awng) I will tell an old story. I am going to tell how humans had started existing on this world. When there was no human on this earth, Hpung Gam Roi Shun and Ning Gawn Chyanu were the first human beings. They were siblings. They lived together, and then gave birth to N-gawn Wa Magam. When N-gawn Wa Magam grew up, he needed to get married too. His parents went to a man called Mahtum Mahta and asked for his daughter to tie the knot with their son. But the man refused to give his daughter by saying that they were just cousins. N-gawn Wa Magam was very disappointed and walked alone by the river. While he was walking near the river, he saw a beautiful female dragon whose scales were sparkling as water. He wondered and went near to look at that. Then he saw that it was a very beautiful girl. He was happy to see her. And he wanted to get her love. So, he told her, "I love you." The girl said, "I will ask my parents first." She went back to her house to ask her parents' permission. Later, he asked the girl to get married with him. After that, they got married and started a family. They gave birth to Janga and Janyi. Many humans have been descended from them. Ethnic groups such as Jinghpaw, Maru, Azi, Lashi, Lisu, Rawang and Hkanu have been descended too. At that time, Kachin people had stayed in Majoi Shingra mount. They did farming for their living and had been descended. Since then, Kachin people are united and become the one. Kachin people had been spreading and developed then. Our ancestors used to tell this story. We, Kachin people, are being descended this much and it's all because of Janyi and Janga. (We are the generations of Janyi and Janga.) Today, we argue that you are Jinghpaw, you are Maru and you are Azi. Actually, there shouldn't be that kind of argument. It's not good to hear. We are descended from one place, from the same ancestors and we shared everything together. We ate from the same pot and drunk water from the same river. Today, you all are educated and matured. It would be great if you listen and remember this kind of story. That's why I'm sharing this story to you.
