KK1-1478 - Grai n kaja ai manang (The bad friend) with English translation

Translation (Rita Seng Mai) Once upon a time, there were two childhood friends. They knew each other since they were young. One friend was well-behaved and kind. She shared everything with her friend. The other friend was mean and greedy. She never shared what she had. They remained best friends. Soon, they reached the age to get married. The well-behaved woman was pure and kind. The mean lady was greedy. She wanted to be rich too. After getting married, the kind woman worked as a farmer. One day, she fell asleep while she was resting at her hut. (When she woke up) She saw an egret and followed it. She saw that the egret was eating a heap of gold. Then she picked up some gold and became rich. Her best friend asked her about how she became wealthy. She was pure and didn't think a lot. She told her everything. Her friend was actually jealous of her. The mean lady did exactly as her friend did. While the egret was eating gold, she tried to take more and more gold as she was greedy. At that time, the egret flew away. Then the cave she was inside closed down. The evil nat spirits killed her. This is the end of the story.

### 译版（丽塔·森·迈（Rita Seng Mai））
从前有两位自幼相识的挚友，二人从孩童时期便彼此相知。其中一位温婉善良，乐于与友人分享所有事物；另一位则刻薄贪婪，从不肯分享自己拥有的一切，但二人仍是至交好友。
不久后，二人到了谈婚论嫁的年纪。那位心性纯粹善良的女子婚后以务农为生。一日，她在小屋休憩时睡去，醒来后遇见一只白鹭，便跟随其前行。她目睹白鹭正啄食一堆黄金，便捡拾了些许黄金，就此变得富有。
她的挚友得知她发家的缘由后，因心性纯粹未曾多虑，便将细节全盘告知。殊不知这位友人早已心生嫉妒，刻薄女子便依样行事。当白鹭啄食黄金时，她因贪婪试图攫取更多黄金，此时白鹭径直飞走，她所在的洞穴随即闭合，邪恶的精灵将她杀害。故事至此终结。
