Long ago, there were nine boys living in a village. Those nine boys were always oppressing and beating people, living in such a manner. In that village, there was also one orphan. Thus, the nine boys always oppressed him. It was always like that. Then, one day when time had passed, when the banyan tree fruits ripened, the nine boys told the orphan, "Hey, we are going to set traps by the banyan tree." "Orphan boy, aren't you coming with us?" The orphan said, "Yes, I want to come too." Truly, the nine boys took him with them. In this way, they set traps. The nine boys set traps only on banyan trees. Then, the orphan had no place left to set a trap on the banyan tree. So, he only set his trap on the ground below. The next morning, when they went to check the traps again, a deer was caught in the traps of the nine boys on top of the banyan tree. On the ground below, in the orphan's trap, there was a hornbill caught. The nice boys said, "Yes, this is how it is." The nine boys faced humiliation. Then, they called the elders of the village and said, "Now, teachers, please judge this." "The orphan's trap caught a hornbill." "A deer was caught." "Our trap, right up there on the tree, caught a deer." "He took his deer and hung it on the tree." They let them judge this matter. The wise elders of the village were called again to judge this matter. People gathered once more. At that time, the wise adults of the village, fearing the nine boys, all sided with them. Thus, the orphan became unable to call any adults. At that time, he called a person named Mang Bya. Then it was decided that the matter would be judged the next day. Then the nine boys and the adults they called said "What the nine boys did was right." They argued, "What the orphan did was not right." Since the orphan could not call anyone, he called Mang Bya, but Mang Bya did not come early in the morning. Finally, at dusk, when even the sun had set, the person named Mang Bya arrived. At that time, the adults and the nine boys said, "Hey, Mang Bya, the teacher of the orphan, you have not come to judge this trial until now." "You and this orphan have lost! Lost! Lost!" "You are not right!" "The two of you can never win this trial!" Then Mang Bya said, "Yes, I left home early this morning." "But the sandy area of the Irrawaddy River is burning in a wildfire. Oh no!" "I scooped water with a basket and poured it." "It was only in the afternoon that the water finally filled up." "The sandy area was completely burned." "Yes, only then did I manage to come here!" Mang Bya apologized. At that time, all the nine boys and adults laughed. "How the sandy area caught fire?" "If you say you watered with a basket, doesn't the basket have holes?" "How can you scoop water with it?" At that time, Mang Bya said, "Yes, boys and teachers, deer never climb trees." "U gaw only eats fruits and never comes down to the ground." "How could the deer up there be caught in the banyan tree?" "And How could U gaw bird be dead in the trap below?" "This is something that could never happen." "It goes against the laws of nature." At the same time, in this trial, the orphan led by Mang Bya won the case. |
