Translation (Htoi San) This story is about a woodpecker and a crow. The woodpecker sounded, "Tawk Hkan, Tawk Hkan." One day, both birds went to a festival. The woodpecker invited the crow to go to the event. The woodpecker asked the crow to do makeup for her. The crow drew the woodpecker beautifully. Nowadays, we can only see woodpeckers a little. The woodpecker sounds, "Tawk Hkan! Tawk Hkan!" Only a few people see them well these days. The crow painted the woodpecker nicely and meaningfully. After the crow painted him, the woodpecker was ready to go to the Manau party. After the woodpecker's turn, the crow rushed for his turn and said, "Do it faster for me! Do it quickly!" IAs the crow was rushing, the woodpecker was impatient, "Oh! You are such a rushing!" and pushed him into a stagnant water pool where Indigo plants grew. Therefore, the crow became black, and the woodpecker was pretty. The crow was angry, "You pushed me into the Indigo stagnant water pool." After pushing the crow, the woodpecker ran away and hid in a thorny shrub. The crow chased the woodpecker and tried to thrust him. However, he was pricked by thorns, and he walked in a limping manner as he was in a hurry so much. He was dashing to go to the event, so the woodpecker pushed him. Moreover, he tried to thrust the woodpecker into the thorny shrub, and he was the one who became limping. As a result, the woodpecker did not go out much and he went out only at night time. The woodpecker hid in a dark place. Therefore, we barely see them.
