KK1-0589 - Hpun pawt kaw n mai yup ai lam (Why it is not good to sleep at the root system of a tree) with English translation

Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The story I'm going to tell you is about why we can't sleep on the tree stump under the tree. Once upon a time, there was a traveller. He traded hats. One day, it was already getting dark while he was travelling. He thought to sleep on the tree stump. While he was sleeping there, a group of monkeys stole his hats. They stole all of his hats. There were red, green and different colours of hats. When he noticed there was no hat, he couldn't sleep anymore. He was worried and thought, "Where are all of my hats?" He was depressed and sitting under the tree. He was searching for his hats in the vicinity. However, he couldn't find any hats. Then he continued his journey. Soon, he reached another tree. He saw the monkeys playing with his hats. Those monkeys stole his hats. He shouted, "Hey! Why did you steal my hats? Give it back to me. If I don't have my hats, I can't live anymore." The monkeys didn't pay attention to him and just laughed at him. They didn't give his hats back to him. He was getting angry and said, "Give it back to me. I can't live if I don't have my hat." The monkeys were just laughing at him. Then he angrily shouted his lungs out. Then the monkeys were shocked and dropped all of his hats. He collected all of his hats and went back home.

【译文（丽塔·森·迈）】
我要讲述的这个故事，阐释了我们为何不可在树下的树桩上休憩。从前有一位以售卖帽子为生的旅行者。一日，他行至天色将暮，便打算在树桩上歇息片刻。正当他熟睡之时，一群猴子窃走了他全部的帽子——这些帽子有着红、绿等各色样式。当他察觉帽子尽数不见时，再也无法安睡，满心焦灼地暗自思忖："我的帽子都去了哪里？"他沮丧地坐在树下，在周遭四处搜寻，却一无所获。随后他继续踏上旅途，不久便来到另一棵树下，竟撞见猴子们正把玩着他的帽子。原来正是这群猴子偷了他的帽子！他高声呵斥："喂！你们为何偷我的帽子？速速还给我！若是没有了帽子，我根本无法生计！"可猴子们全然不予理会，只顾嘲笑他，不肯归还帽子。他愈发愤怒，再次喊道："把帽子还给我！没有帽子我活不下去！"猴子们依旧大笑不止。随后他声嘶力竭地怒吼，猴子们这才惊惶失措，将所有帽子尽数抛下。他捡回全部帽子后，便返回家中。
