Title U tsip hpe n mai jahten ai lam (Why it is not good to destroy bird nests) with English translation
Description 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.
