Wild boar and Squirrel

Оглавление

In the oak grove, wild Boar argued with Squirrel

About that, who in this world brings more benefits?

The instigator of dispute, wild Boar, exclaimed, that it was he!!!

And brought the reasons over: “What benefit from me to all

are this grove? Time after time I swarm the roots, you see, it’s not

so easy look, everything I’ve burrowed around! And you?

What profits do you have? You jump on trees all days long,

There is no use in wood from you! Only my head is swimming

Go down and begin to work! Wild boar shoot a look on Squirrel, he

was dissatisfied, and he continued to dig up in the roots of trees

And Squirrel suddenly began to speak:

“Just wait, my friend, I do not understand, what do you talk about?

What blessing have you done? Just dug up all around

You bared roots; from them, all trees are feeding!

Your digging ruin trees, you know, that dig is for your pleasure

You search delicious roots and sprouts, don’t look at me, I ask you

The reasons for my hop and bustle it’s none of your concern

You like to dig up in the earth, go on in the same spirit!

I’ll think about the benefit, which I bring in an oak grove.

I want to say you, do not judge others by yourself

Then your head will not be swimming!”

And Squirrel bridled up the tail and jumped up on the barrel,

She disappeared in the leaves, only a rustle was heard.

Wild boar tried to heave up and gazed after the Squirrel

He pushed in earth his dirty nose, thinking about Squirrel…


Sometimes we like to judge each other,

We search for defects and evils.

We praise ourselves and think that all around must look like us

And we forget that all of us are different,

And we’re only able to act the role, That was given to us by fate.
