Description:Translation (Gun Mai) Once upon a time, there was a married man who had many children. After his wife had passed away, his children got married so he had many daughters-in-law and grandchildren as well. In the past, there were many rooms in a Jinghpaw house. Even though there were many families, the man's Jinghpaw house was very long with many rooms, so there were like the first son's room, the second son's room, and the third son's room. They lived together in one house and ate together from one pot. And also worked together. Even though the siblings were living together in the house like that, no one loved their father. No one cared about their father. Whatever they got, no one even said "Dad, eat this". Wherever they wanted to go, they just went out without telling their father, so the father felt lonely because the children didn't show love to him. And, he was also getting older. The father thought himself that "There is no one who cares me. If I am getting older and none of my children loves me, how will I survive myself? It is getting more difficult to wash and change clothes. How I should do?" So one day, he went to one of his best friends. "Hi friend, I feel lonely and depressed because none of my children loves me. I am getting older' said the man. So, the man's friend gave him advice. The friend suggested that "When you return from here, buy a big box". "After you buy a box, lock it with a very good lock and bring it to me. And, put heavy stones inside the box". "After you put the stones, call your children and tell them that your box is very heavy and ask them to carry. And, tell them that because your properties are a lot now and you will send the box to me to prevent from your children" suggested the man's friend. The man did as his friend suggested and he also said that "My dear children, just after I die, you all go to my friend and take this box and share among you all". Then, the man asked his children to send the box to his friend. From that day, the children of the man actively showed their love to their father. They keenly showed who love more and who care more about their father. Whatever their father wanted, they just actively gave. Whatever their father wanted to eat, they just bought for him. They competed with each other to show love to their father. So, their father happily lived with them and passed away under the care and love of his children. After the man died, the children went to the man's friend and said that "Hi gentleman, now our father has passed away. So, please give us our father's box that asked you to keep". So, the man gave them the box and when they opened it, there were only full of stones. The children were amazed because of that. Then, the man's friend said that "It was what I suggested your father to do so because you all didn't love and care your father before". "But, since you all are very good and took care well your father before he died, you all will live unitedly and happily and going to achieve prosperous lives". As the man's friend told, the children also lived happily and worked unitedly in everything. It is the end. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi da la langai mi gaw dinghku de nna kasha grai law lu sai da.
