The son bought an egg but dropped it on the path, but inside the egg were cows and goats in plenty. So he sang a song saying, "We went to the lake but got no fish, but when I bought this egg I had no idea what was in it." Now the father became jealous of his son. He took some glue and glued his son to a tree, but all the cattle and goats stayed with the son and the father still got none. So he left his son in the bush. When he was asked by is wife where his son was, he said, "Oh! he was ahead of me." The woman replied, "You walk too much with my son and now you have lost him." The listeners often call out the typical Yao response og 'Go'. Story song.
