KK1-1231 - Kanu a ga n madat ai brangtai yen nu ni (The rabbit that did not listen to his mother) with English translation

Translation (Rita) Once upon a time, there was a rabbit which lived in a burrow. The story I am going to tell is about 'a rabbit family'. The mother rabbit put her babies in the burrow. She said to her babies, "Don't go anywhere! Just stay here." But they wanted to go outside and visit around. The eldest rabbit said, "Let one be a leader among three of us. Let's choose one who can be a leader." The second rabbit said, "The eldest one will be a leader!" The youngest rabbit didn't agree with him. He said, "Our mom said not to go out. No one is leader. We are just brothers. So, let's just stay here by eating food mom finds for us." The eldest one deceived his two younger brothers and visited around that place secretly. He took his younger brothers too. They visited many places day by day. They reached a really far place. Then, they arrived at a cave where a tiger lived. When they reached there, the tiger talked sweetly to them. He said, "Little rabbits, come and play here. It's sunny outside. Come and take a rest here." The eldest rabbit said to his brothers, "I am your eldest brother. Listen to me! Let's go and play there." The youngest rabbit didn't agree with him. He wanted to go back home. The eldest rabbit said to the youngest one to go in. But the youngest one said, "Look! There are many footprints which show animals going in. But there is no footprint which show coming out! Let's not go in. It's too dangerous." But the eldest one said, "No! I will go there no matter what. Let's go." The youngest rabbit didn't want to go in, so they went back home. The two elder brothers went into the cave. As soon as they came into the cave, the tiger ate both of them. When the mother rabbit came back after finding some food at night, she saw only the youngest son. So, she asked him, "Where are your brothers?" He said, "This afternoon, we went outside and visited some places. There, we saw a tiger cave. The tiger called us to come in. I told them not to go there. But they didn't listen to me and went inside it. Only I went back home, mom." After hearing what her son said, she told him, "I told you all not to go far away, to stay here and play here. You didn't listen to what I said. Now, your brothers got eaten by a tiger because they didn't listen to me."

译版（丽塔）：很久很久以前，有一只兔子栖息于洞穴之中。今日本欲讲述的是"兔子一家"的故事。兔妈妈将幼崽安置在洞穴内，对其叮嘱道："切勿外出乱跑，只需在此等候即可。"然而幼崽们却渴望外出游玩。长子提议："我们兄弟三人当推选一位首领，选出能担当领袖的伙伴。"次子说道："由长子来担任首领！"但幼子并不同意，它言道："妈妈曾告诫我们不可出门，根本无需什么首领，我们本就是兄弟，只需待在此处，食用妈妈寻来的食物便可。"可长子却欺骗了两位弟弟，偷偷带着它们外出游玩。它们日复一日地游历了诸多处所，抵达了一处极为遥远的所在。随后，它们来到了一处老虎栖息的洞穴。当它们抵达此处时，老虎柔声对它们说道："小兔子们，前来此处玩耍吧。外面阳光和煦，来此歇息片刻。"长子对兄弟们说道："我是你们的大哥，听我的号令！我们去那里游玩。"幼子并不赞同，它想要回家。长子催促幼子进入洞穴，但幼子说道："看！此处只有进入的动物脚印，却没有任何返回的脚印！我们绝不能进去，此处太过危险。"可长子却言道："不行！无论如何我都要进去，我们走吧。"幼子不愿进入，于是独自返回家中。而两位兄长则走进了洞穴。它们刚一进入洞穴，老虎便将它们吞噬。当晚兔妈妈外出觅食归来，只见到了幼子。于是它问道："你的兄弟们身在何处？"幼子答道："今日午后，我们外出游历了一些地方，在那里见到了一处虎穴。老虎邀我们进入，我劝它们不要前往，但它们不听我的劝告，径自进入了洞内，唯有我返回家中，妈妈。"听罢儿子的话语，兔妈妈说道："我早已告诫你们切勿走远，待在此处玩耍便好，你们却不听我的告诫。如今你们的兄弟被老虎吃掉，正是因为它们没有听从我的劝诫。"
