Ta ter mai yahk yoo gub chun jing jing
If you really don't want to be with me

Yin yom took sing hai ter ting pbai
I'll accept everything and let you go

Chun kor kae pieng hai wela noy dai mai
I just ask that you give me a little of your time

Yahk lao nitahn hai fung
I'd like to tell you a story

Chao na kon neung mee chee wid lumpung
There was a farmer who lived a very lonely life

Pbai jer ngoo hao gumlung glai thaai
He found a snake who was dying

Song sarn jeung geb ao ma liang doy mai roo
He felt sorry for it so he took it with him without knowing

Sood taai ja pben yang rai
What the final consequence would be

Koy doo lae duay kwam jing jai, huang yai lae koy hai kwam ruk
He took care of it with an honest heart, he was concerned about it and he gave it love

Pben gungwon wah mun ja thaai fao koy ao jai took yang
He worried about whether it will die, he did everything to please it

Thae sood taai chao na poo chai jai dee duay kwam tee kao wai jai
But in the end the farmer, the man with a good, trusting heart

Na sia daai glub thong thaai duay pid ngoo
So pitiful, he ended up dying of the snake's venom

Nitarn mun bohk hai yom rub kwam jing
The story teaches you to accept the truth

Wah mee bang sing mai kuan wai jai
That there are some things we can't trust

Arai bang yang hai tum dee suk kae nai
Those things, no matter how nice we are to them

Mai chuang mai ruk mai jing
They will never be tame, they will never love or be true
