Description:Translation (Rita Seng Mai) I want to tell you that if someone lied and committed terrible things to others, the truth will appear one day no matter how hard one tries to hide it for years. Once upon a time, there was a king in a country. He had one son and one daughter. When he got older, he wanted to pass over his throne to his two children. But he didn't know whom to give. So, he decided to see their knowledge and skills. He said, "My children, I am getting older day by day. Go and find burans at the top of the mountain. I want to pass my throne to the one who could find that flower." Then, both of them started their journey to the mountain to find that flower. When they reached the top of the mountain, the prince couldn't find the flowers. But the princess did. He felt jealous of her. And he killed her and took that flower. Then, he went back to the palace. He said, "Your Majesty, the princess couldn't find the flower, but I did." And he gave the burans to his father. The king totally believed him and gave him the throne. The prince succeeded the throne and became a new king. One day, a shepherd was looking after his sheep on the mountain where the princess died. He saw the forearm bones of the dead princess. The bones were lovely. He picked up that bone and played like a guitar. Surprisingly, a song came out when he played it. The melody was like, 'Oh dear shepherd, you are playing my bones like a guitar. Pass this message to my mom.' The shepherd was surprised to hear a song from those bones. He took those bones and gave them to the king, the late princess's brother. When the king touched those bones, a melody came out again. It was like, 'Oh my dearest brother, you are playing with my bones. Tell mom about this.' The king was upset to hear that. But he gave them to their mom. When the king's mother touched them, a nice melody came out, 'Oh my beloved mom, these are my bones. Feel at ease now, please.' In the end, the king couldn't deny the fact that he killed his sister. No matter how great one is, the truth always comes out if he committed crimes or something terrible.
