Minor Husband
The door bursts open with a BANG!
Lover is caught in shock.
Cops and civilians
Enter the room.
Lover is dazed.
Lover quickly slips back into his jeans.
Why the hell are you here? Lover asks.
Lover has no idea
The door bursts open with a BANG!
Lover is caught in shock.
Cops and civilians
Enter the room.
Lover is dazed.
Lover quickly slips back into his jeans.
Why the hell are you here? Lover asks.
Lover has no idea
You slut!
An elderly man who came in with the cops slaps
Lover’s woman, who is draped in a white towel.
Lover is speechless.
Lover realizes the situation
at that very moment.
Lover is terrified.
Lover is frightened.
Lover didn’t know
His girlfriend was married.
She is another man’s wife.
Now Lover is being lectured.
The elderly man and the young man.
The major husband and the minor husband.
Two husbands for one woman?
No, no!
I …, I am not her minor husband.
Lover denies.
You’ve been caught on top of her.
You still want to plead innocent?
They harass Lover.
I … I … let me explain.
Lover stammers. Apologies in profusion.
Lover woefully insists he is guiltless.
Shut up!
You can talk as much as you want at the police station.
Lover is being handcuffed.
Ten minutes ago
Lover was a hero in bed.
Now he is a wife thief,
A minor husband.

လင္ငယ္
၀ုန္းခနဲ တံခါးပြင့္သြားလို႔
လင္ငယ္ လန္႔သြားတယ္
ရဲေတြ အရပ္၀တ္ေတြ
အခန္းထဲ၀င္လာတယ္
လင္ငယ္ ေၾကာင္သြားတယ္
ဂ်င္းေဘာင္းဘီကို အျမန္ယူ၀တ္
ေဒါသတၾကီး ေအာ္ဟစ္တယ္
ခင္ဗ်ားတို႔ဒါဘာလုပ္တာလဲ
သူ႔ကိုယ္သူ လင္ငယ္မွန္းမသိတဲ့ လင္ငယ္
ကိုယ္မွာတဘက္အျဖဴပတ္ထားတဲ့မိန္းမကို
အသက္ၾကီးၾကီး အဘိုးၾကီးတစ္ေယာက္က
လင္ငယ္ေနတဲ့ဟာမ
ပါးစပ္ကေျပာျပီး ပါးပိတ္ရိုက္ပစ္တယ္
လင္ငယ္ အ သြားတယ္
ခ်က္ခ်င္းဆိုသလို အေျခအေနကို
လင္ငယ္ သေဘာေပါက္သြားတယ္
လင္ငယ္ တအား တုန္လႈပ္သြားတယ္
လင္ငယ္ တအား ေျခာက္ျခားသြားတယ္
လင္ရွိမယားကို လင္ရွိမယားမွန္း
မသိခဲ့တဲ့ လင္ငယ္
လင္ရွိမယားကို လင္ရွိမယားမွန္း
သိသြားတဲ့ လင္ငယ္
လူၾကီး နဲ႔ လူငယ္
လင္ၾကီး နဲ႔ လင္ငယ္
ႏွစ္လင္ တစ္မယား
မဟုတ္ဘူး မဟုတ္ဘူး
ကၽြန္ေတာ္ လင္ငယ္မဟုတ္ဘူး
အေၾကာက္အကန္
လင္ငယ္ ျငင္းဆန္တယ္
လက္ပူးလက္ၾကပ္မိေနတာေတာင္မွ
မင္းကျငင္းခ်င္ေသးလို႔လား
လင္ငယ္ကို ၀ိုင္းေဟာက္တယ္
က်...ကၽြန္ေတာ္ရွင္းျပပါရေစဦး
အထစ္ထစ္ အေငါ့ေငါ့
ညိွဳးညိွဳးငယ္ငယ္
လင္ငယ္ ေတာင္းပန္တယ္
ေသခ်င္လို႔လား
စခန္းေရာက္မွရွင္း
လင္ငယ္ကို လက္ထိပ္ခတ္လိုက္တယ္
လြန္ခဲ့တဲ့ ဆယ္မိနစ္က
ကာမသူရဲေကာင္းၾကီး
အခု
လင္ငယ္ ။ ။
