KK1-1044 - Shu chyit a lam (The toad) with English translation

Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The title of the story I will tell is 'A toad'. Once upon a time, a female toad gave birth to many tadpoles. Even when the tadpoles grew in size, the mother toad did not let them leave water. They only stayed in the water. The mother toad took the responsibility to find food for all. Also, she taught her children, "No one is bigger than me. I, your mother, is the biggest animal on Earth." The toadlets believed what their mother said. They had never seen other animals, so they believed that their mother was the biggest. One day, the mother toad left the water to search for food for them. They tried to go on the land while their mother was away as they were curious. They were fascinated since they had never been on the land. At that moment, a big buffalo was walking over them. The buffalo was walking over them along the way. He did not see the toadlets. He accidentally stepped on them. Some toadlets were dead due to his steps. The alive toadlets were scared and shaking. At that time, the mother toad came back and saw them on the land. She asked them, "What are you guys doing there?" They answered in a shaking voice, "Mom, the huge animal walked past us. He stepped on some of our brothers and sisters to death. Some of us are dead." She was upset to hear it. She asked them, "Who killed my children? What kind of animal is he? How big is he?" They said, "He is really big. We have never seen that kind of animal before." She asked them while expanding her belly, "How big is he? Is he this big?" They said, "No, Mom. He is bigger than that." She expanded her belly bigger than the first time and asked them again. They said, "No, Mom. He is much bigger than that." Then she tried her best to expand her belly again and asked them, "Is he this big?" They shook their heads and said, "He is much, much bigger, Mom." At last, her belly exploded, and she died. Then, their mother's death separated them from her. The toadlets always live wherever they want till today. They live in the lake or stream. This is the end of the story.

翻译（丽塔·森·迈）：我所要讲述的故事题为《一只蟾蜍》。往昔，一只雌蟾蜍产下诸多蝌蚪。即便蝌蚪逐渐长大，母蟾蜍亦不许它们离开水域，它们始终栖息于水中。母蟾蜍承担着为所有幼崽觅食的职责，同时还教导它们：“无人能比我更为强大，我——你们的母亲，乃是地球上体型最大的动物。”幼蟾们深信母亲所言。它们从未见过其他动物，故而认定母亲便是世间最大的生物。
一日，母蟾蜍离开水域为孩子们觅食。幼蟾们因好奇心驱使，趁母亲不在之际偷偷登上陆地。它们从未踏足过陆地，眼前的景象令它们倍感新奇。恰在此时，一头庞大的水牛正从它们身旁经过。水牛并未留意到幼蟾，不慎踩中了它们。不少幼蟾死于蹄下，幸存的幼蟾吓得浑身颤抖。
此时母蟾蜍返回，见孩子们在陆地上，便问道：“你们在此做什么？”幼蟾们带着颤抖的声音答道：“妈妈，有一头巨大的动物从我们身边走过，它踩死了我们的一些兄弟姐妹，部分同伴已不幸离世。”母蟾蜍听闻后极为难过，问道：“是谁害死了我的孩子？那是什么动物？它有多大？”幼蟾们回答：“它确实很大，我们从未见过此种动物。”母蟾蜍一边鼓起肚皮，一边问道：“它有这么大吗？”幼蟾们摇头道：“不，妈妈，它比这还要大。”母蟾蜍再次将肚皮鼓得更大，再次询问。幼蟾们依旧摇头：“不，妈妈，它比这大得多。”随后母蟾蜍拼尽全力鼓起肚皮，问道：“那它有这么大吗？”幼蟾们连连摇头：“妈妈，它比这还要大得多，大得多。”最终，母蟾蜍的肚皮撑裂，就此殒命。
母亲的离世让幼蟾们与她永别。此后，幼蟾们便随心所欲地栖息于各处，直至今日。它们生活在湖泊或溪流之中。本故事至此结束。
