Translation (Seng Pan) Once upon a time, there lived a quail in a big ocean. He lived there by catching and having the fish from the ocean. He enjoyed his peaceful life there. One day there was a wildfire on the ocean. Since he was afraid of it, he flew to a mountain. He settled there and didn't go back to the ocean. He lived there for a long time. Although he decided to live on the mountain, he always got hungry and craved fish when he went to sleep at night. Therefore, he always sounded, "Nga baw, Nga baw" (it means fish head) before he slept. The quail's sound, "Nga baw, Nga baw", was started from that day.
