Translation (Htoi Awng) Once upon a time, there was an evil wealthy man in a village. And there was an orphan boy in that village too. He was poor, so he worked for the rich man. He had to look after the buffaloes and cows. The rich man was narrow-minded. Since he had many servants, he didn't work a bit. He was a sybarite. But he didn't support clothes for his servants and didn't treat them well. He let six seventeen-year-old girls stay with him. He treated them as his mistresses. But he couldn't sexually attack the youngest girl. So, he beat and bullied her. Then, that girl and the orphan boy, who had to look after the rich man's buffaloes, fell in love since they had seen each other very often. Unfortunately, the rich man got to know their love story. He was mad and tried many ways to break them. But the love between the girl and the orphan boy was so strong that he couldn't break them. So, the rich man fired the boy. Then, the boy had to go hunting in a forest. One day, he saw a tiger chasing a deer while he was hunting. The deer was running at his fastest speed. The tiger kept chasing him too. Then, the hunter followed them and shot the tiger with his gun. The tiger was dead, and the deer could escape from the danger. He saved the life of the deer. One day, the girls went to the forest to collect woods. The girl knew that her lover usually went hunting in this forest. She longed for her boyfriend. So, she sang a pleasant song while she was collecting wood. At that time, the hunter heard the girl's singing. So, he followed the sound. There, he met his girlfriend. When they met, the girl didn't want to go back to her house. She said, "I miss you so much. Now, I'm with you. I will not go home. I will be with you." Then, they lived together in the forest by hunting some animals. One year later, they thought to farm. They farmed beside the main road. One day, the rich man went to his parents-in-law's house with his wife, children and some guards. On the way, they walked past the couple's farm. The rich man saw the orphan boy and ordered his guards to arrest him. They tied his hands from the back. When the orphan boy's wife saw that they were beating up her husband, she quickly ran towards them. At that time, the rich man pulled his knife from the sheath to kill the orphan boy. Unfortunately, she was cut by the knife when the rich man raised his hands to kill the orphan. At that moment, the deer that the orphan boy saved before walked past them. It saw that the orphan boy was bullied, and his wife was dead. So, it ran towards the rich man and gored him with its horns. The orphan boy was beaten unconscious. After attacking the rich man, the deer quickly ran into the forest. Then, the rich man and his guards chased it. It deceived them and ran back to the orphan boy and his wife. It plucked some medicinal herbs. It crushed herbs and put them into the girl's mouth. Surprisingly, it could bring her back to life. And then, the deer fed the medicinal herbs to the orphan boy too. The boy came to his consciousness. On the other hand, the rich man and his guards didn't know the deer ran back to the orphan boy. They kept chasing it. At that time, one of the guards was holding his gun while he was chasing the deer. Unfortunately, the trigger was accidentally pulled and hit right at the rich man's neck. The rich man was dead in the end. Transcription (Lu Awng) Moi da ndai sahte langai mi gaw grai nhkru ai sahte langai mi nga ai da.
