KK1-2038 - U tsip hpe n mai jahten ai lam (Why it is not good to destroy bird nests) with English translation

Translation (Seng Pan) The story I am going to tell you now is that you should not destroy a bird's nest. Once upon a time, when a family moved to another place, they found a bird's nest on their way. They took a rest there. Then the kids played with the hatchlings. And they took them out from the nest. After that, they continued their travel. However, the family was faced with many difficulties as the mother hen swore at them. However, the family could put hatchlings back to their nest since they were not dead. Only after that, all the bad things which happened to them disappeared.

译述（译者：Seng Pan）：
此为一则劝诫世人切勿损毁鸟巢的寓言故事。往昔，一户人家迁居途中于一处歇脚时，发现了一枚鸟巢。孩童们对巢中的幼鸟颇感好奇，遂将其从巢中取出把玩。之后这家人便继续踏上旅程。不料此后这户人家接连遭遇诸多厄难，原来是鸟妈妈因幼鸟被取走而衔怨降下灾厄。所幸孩童们并未伤及幼鸟性命，这家人得以将幼鸟重新放回巢中。自此之后，所有降临在他们身上的厄运皆烟消云散。
