A surricate fell in love with a girl. He asked his relatives to go and ask the girl for him. At first the relatives of the girl refused to give the girl to him but in the end they agreed. They arrange a feast with dances and meat. When the people threw the bones away for the dogs, the surricates ran after them together with the dogs. Then the people realized: "Oh these are no people. They eat together with the dogs." Then they chased the surricates away. Lesson to be learned according to translator: You have to take care that you give your daugther to the right people. Don't give them to people who are after the food. You have to look for people with good hearts who are going to take care for you as well.
