KK1-0217 - Lagawn ai wa u ni kaw na manau sharin la ai lam (Lazy man who learnt Manau from birds) with English translation

Translation (Seng Pan) I will talk about how Kachin people started Manau dance. Ocne, there was a very lazy man. He was not helpful not only at home but also at anywhere. Therefore, the villagers put him in a basket and hung it from a tree. Even though he was a lazy man, he was intelligent. He just didn't want to work hard. However, while he was kept in a basket which was hung from a tree, he was looking carefully at how the flocks of birds flew in different shapes and ate the fruits on the trees. On the other hand, he, La Dinyau, longed for someone to free him. While he was watching the flocks of birds, he had got an idea that if the people in his village would dance like how the birds flied in different shapes, it would be amazing. As he was kept in the basket, he couldn't get out from it by himself. At that time, a man who looked sick, was passing by. The man saw him and asked, "Man, why are you being hung there?" Since he was a good liar, he replied, "Hanging here made me relieve from sickness and stress. This is a peaceful place. That's why I am staying here." "I am stressed and my body is also painful. Please hang me there too!" the man requested. However, he said, "No. Only one person can be hung. Even me, as I repeatedly begged to stay here to the one who was hung here before me, I could stay here. I haven't recovered fully yet. I still need to be hung here." "No. Please let me stay! I feel so hurt," the man said. "Ok. I will give this place. It's only because you are eagerly praying for it. Untie me now! After that I will tie you well and hang here," he replied. After he was free, he hung the man there. And he went back to where his relatives were. And he led them dancing like the way the flocks of birds flew sinuously and made different shapes. So, till today Kachin people perform different curves and shapes in Manau dance which were learnt from birds.

### 译文（森潘译）
本文将讲述景颇族（Kachin）目瑙纵歌（Manau dance）的起源故事。从前有一名极度懒惰之人，他无论在家中还是在外皆不愿劳作，村民们不堪其扰，遂将其装入竹筐，悬挂于树梢。尽管此人懒惰，却天资聪颖，只是不愿付出辛劳罢了。

一日，他被悬于树上时，细致观察到群鸟以各异姿态翱翔，啄食枝头果实。与此同时，名为拉迪尧（La Dinyau）的他渴望有人能将自己解救。在观察群鸟的过程中，他萌生奇想：若村中众人能模仿群鸟蜿蜒飞舞、变换形态的姿态起舞，定能妙趣横生。但他被困筐中，无法自行脱身。

恰在此时，一名看似身患疾病的男子路过，见他被悬挂于此，便问道："老兄，你为何被挂在这里？"拉迪尧素来善辩，便答道："在此悬挂休憩，能让我远离病痛与压力，此地宁静祥和，正因如此我才留在这里。"路人闻言说道："我正因压力缠身而痛苦不堪，请将我也挂在这里吧！"拉迪尧却拒绝道："不行，只能悬挂一人。此前我也曾反复恳求挂在此处的前辈，才得以留在这里，如今我尚未完全康复，仍需在此悬挂。"路人执意恳求："不行，求你让我留下，我实在太过痛苦。"拉迪尧便说："好吧，我将此位置让与你——只因你如此恳切地祈求。现在解开我！之后我会将你好好绑好悬挂于此。"

待路人被解开后，拉迪尧随即将他挂于树上，随后返回村中，带领族人模仿群鸟飞舞的姿态起舞。时至今日，景颇族的目瑙纵歌仍保留着源自群鸟的各式曲线与造型。
