Poor Mr. Lebai
A long time ago, a man called Mr Lebai lived on a
river bank in a village in West Sumatera. One day, he
received two party invitations, one from a villager
upstream and another one downstream. The two
parties’ locations were far from each other. However,
the parties were taking place exactly at the same time.
Not wanting to miss both parties, he started rowing
his boat downstream for he knew that the food there
was very delicious. In the middle of his journey, he
stopped. He remembered that the host of the
upstream usually gave more food to the guests, so he
turned his boat back and started to row upstream.
After rowing for several minutes, he stopped
again. He remembered that the downstream host was
a generous man. Mr Lebai thought that if he got there
early, he would get a delicious buffalo head. He turned
back to go to the downstream village.
However, when he got there, the party in the
downstream village was over. He saw people walking
home, bringing bags of food. Mr Lebai was
disappointed. He quickly turned his boat again heading
for the upstream village. He rowed as fast as he could.
However, in the middle of the journey, he saw people
walking home bringing their bags of food, too. It meant
the party was over, also.
In the end, Mr Lebai went home empty-
handed, disappointed, and exhausted. He was so
unfortunate. Thereafter, he was nicknamed "pak lebai
malang" or "poor Mr Lebai".
