KK1-1568 - Manang kaja tsap (The good bear) with English translation

Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there were a bear and a rabbit in a forest. They were good friends. They two ate and slept together. One day, they two went to the forest to play. After playing for some time, they were a bit hungry. Then the rabbit told, "My friend bear, let's go and find some food for us." The rabbit saw something while they were playing, then it told its good friend 'bear', "Over there, there is a carrot. Could you go and get a big and delicious one, please? I want to play more." The bear told, "OK, I will go and get it for you. You play there." Then it went there to get a carrot. And it saw a rope and thought to itself, "Umm, why is the carrot tied by a rope?" There was a wolf which was waiting for a prey to get trapped. When the rope was moved, the wolf thought "It will definitely be a rabbit!" Then it jumped out from somewhere to catch the prey. When it jumped out, it saw the bear instead of the rabbit. It was totally different from its thought. Then it tried to run away quickly. But the bear grabbed the wolf and punched it strongly. So, we need a good friend in our lives. Transcription (Lu Hkawng) Moi shawng ye da manang kaja shang lahkawng gaw da brangtai rau tsap wa gaw da brangtai hte tsap wa gaw da manang rai ai da.
