Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The story I am going to tell is about a butterfly. Many years ago, a butterfly laid an egg on a leaf. The egg hatched out since it got the sunlight and fresh air day by day. There came out a caterpillar from the eggshell. That caterpillar moved and moved, and ate every leaf that it could eat. One day, the caterpillar felt so full and wanted to take a rest. Then it made a cocoon with its phlegm and stayed inside there. It became a pupa. Soon, its cocoon was broken out, and a butterfly came out. It had got wings too. The caterpillar turned into a beautiful butterfly. Transcription (Lu Awng) Ya tsun na gaw palam la na lam re.
