Translation (Mike Tu Awng)
Once upon a time, there was a deer. One day that deer was chased by hunters. While the deer was running with hunters chasing after it, the deer got to a village. When the deer got to a village, it saw a cattle house. The deer wanted to get in there so it asked permission from a cow. The cow replied by saying, "There will be people coming to feed us soon." "Because of that, if you hide here, it will not be safe for you." said the cow. But, while the deer was saying that it was ok, the servant of the cattle owner was coming to feed them. When they saw that the servant was coming to the cattle house to feed them, the deer hid under a manger. While it was hiding there, the servant didn't look around anywhere. He just dropped the food in the manger and went back. When the servant had gone, the cow said, "I told you they would come. That was just the servant. When the master comes, he checks everywhere. he usually checks how many cows there are." "Because of that, it is not safe for you to hide here." While they were still talking, the master was coming. The deer just looked for a place there and hid again. The owner was coming while the deer was hiding under the manger. The owner was checking everywhere. And, finally, he found the deer hiding there. When he found the deer, the master was calling his servants to catch the deer. At that moment, the deer ran out from the cattle house. The deer was getting tired as it was running. It had to cross a stream too on its way. Then, as the deer was running, there was a river in front of it. The deer couldn't do anything so it just stopped there. While the deer was standing there, the servants caught it and they slaughtered it for meat. That's the end.
