Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there were a mouse and a lion in a forest. And there was a wise man there too. "I don't want to be a mouse anymore. I want to be the King of animals," the mouse thought to itself and went to the wise man. It told him, "Mister, I just want to be the King of animals." Then he said, "Lion!" The mouse turned into the lion when he said that. Then the mouse was so happy since he turned into the lion. It was so haughty and arrogant. It was arrogant with the thought of becoming a lion. It thought, "I am the King of animals." Then the wise man saw that and told it, "You can't be so arrogant like that. Don't act like that." But the mouse didn't listen to him. "I will be a King for a long time," it said. "You are so arrogant and proud. You ate small animals as you like. You don't protect the animals which are in the same groups. You don't know how to lead them. So from now on, you turn into a mouse again. Live as a mouse!" told the wise man. Then it turned into the mouse again.
