- A long time ago there was a poor farmer and aged mother who lived at the foot of the mountain, in a country called “Shinano”. They owned a bit of land which supplied them with food, and they were humble, peaceful, and happy. However, they were governed by a despotic leader who ordered to put death to all aged people.

- He then began trekking towards the summit of Obatsayuma, the mountain of the "abandoning of the aged.” During their way to the summit, the mother noticed the dangerous path, so she reached for twigs and snapped them to pieces and quietly dropped them until they reached the summit.
- This is a dangerous path. I will leave pieces of snap twigs so he will not get lost on his way home.

- They reach the summit. The heartsick farmer gently released his old mother. His mother speaked before bidding farewell.
- The road is full of dangers so I left a trace of broken twigs to guide you on your way home. They will guide you to the familiar path farther down.
- I’m not leaving you here anymore mother. I love you and I don’t want you to die here alone. Let’s go home.
