KK1-1680 - Tsa byin wa ai lam (The origin of liquor) with English translation

Translation (Rita Seng Mai) In the past, there were no wicked or mean people. They lived happily together. They were not arrogant. People always treated each other well and shared what they had. The king saw that his citizens were happy, so he also ruled the country happily and peacefully. One day, the king said, "I live here peacefully and happily. But what about the lives of animals in the forest?" He wanted to check them. His servants said, "Sure thing, my king. Let's go there." Then they went into the forest. On the first day, they didn't encounter any serious issues; they only noticed that the animals were living there happily. Then they went back. After a week, they went into the forest again. They discovered several birds lying unconscious beneath the tree. The birds looked as if they were dead or unconscious. The king felt upset to see them. The king said, "What happened to the birds? Let's take them to the palace." They took the birds and put them in the cage. The king called the physician and said, "Look at these birds. Treat them. What's happening to them?" The physician said, "They ate something that made them dizzy, so they are unconscious. They are not dead. They didn't eat something that made them die." He treated them to stop the dizziness and then set them free. After releasing the birds, they investigated what had caused them to be like that. One day, the birds were drinking water. After drinking the water, they collapsed to the ground. The king and his servants wondered why that was happening. Then the king told his servants, "Go try it. What might it be?" After drinking it, they felt dizzy and started mumbling. The king thought, "Something is happening here," and they went back. The king's servants secretly took some of the water because they thought, "It tastes really good. When we drink it, we feel happy and talk cheerfully." They secretly took some and drank it in the palace. One day, they went back to search for the source of how this happened. While they were watching the area, the birds arrived carrying some leaves. They dropped the leaves into the small lake beneath the tree. After two or three days, they drank the water. The servants witnessed everything and reported it to the king. Then they picked every leaf from that tree. When they returned to the palace, they did exactly as the birds had done and drank the water. Then they became dizzy. Some were high, some were crying and some were dizzy. Ever since alcohol was created, the whole country became addicted. The situation in the country worsened, and people became unhappy.

### 翻译（丽塔·森·迈（Rita Seng Mai））
往昔世间并无奸邪卑劣之徒，众人和睦共处，无骄矜傲慢之气。世人彼此善待，共享所有之物。国王见国民安居乐业，亦以平和安乐之姿治理家国。

一日，国王言道：“朕在此国泰民安，然林中生灵又当如何？”遂决意前往探查。侍从应声：“陛下所愿，臣等即刻启程。”众人遂步入森林。首日并无大碍，仅见群兽悠然栖息，便折返王宫。

逾一周，众人再入森林，竟发现数只飞鸟倒伏树下，不省人事，状若濒死或昏厥。国王见此状忧心忡忡，言道：“此鸟究竟遭遇何事？速将它们带回王宫。”侍从依言将飞鸟置入笼中，国王召来御医，道：“速查看这些飞鸟，施以救治，查明病因。”御医诊察后回禀：“此鸟误食致晕之物，故陷入昏迷，尚未毙命。”国王遂命御医为其解晕，待飞鸟康复后将其放生。

放生飞鸟后，众人着手调查此事缘由。一日，群鸟前来饮水，饮毕便倒地不起。国王与侍从百思不得其解，国王遂令侍从：“前去一试，便知究竟。”侍从饮下湖水后顿感眩晕，言语含糊不清。国王暗道：“此处必有蹊跷。”众人遂返回王宫。

国王的侍从暗中取了些湖水，只因觉其滋味甘美，饮后令人心神舒畅、谈笑风生。他们偷偷带回宫中饮用。

此后众人再次前往事发地探寻源头。正当众人观察之际，群鸟衔来几片树叶，将其投入树下的小湖。两三日后，群鸟前来饮水，侍从将一切尽收眼底，遂回报国王。众人遂将该树的叶片尽数采摘，带回王宫，效仿飞鸟之举投入湖中饮水，旋即纷纷眩晕：有人亢奋异常，有人痛哭流涕，有人头晕目眩。

自酒（酒精）问世以来，举国上下沉溺其中，国运渐衰，百姓不复往昔安乐。

昔日此境中，众人无恶念恶行，彼此和睦共处，无傲慢骄矜之态，人人相互善待、共享所有。国王见国民安居乐业，亦以平和之心治理家国，国泰民安。

一日，国王言道：“朕在此安宁度日，然林间生灵又当如何？”遂决意前往探查。侍从应声：“陛下所愿，臣等即刻启程。”众人遂步入森林。首日并无大碍，仅见群兽悠然栖息，便折返王宫。
