The Ant and the Bird

داستان کوتاه انگلیسی – مورچه و کبوتر – The Ant and the Bird

The Ant and  the Bird

On a hot summer day,

a little ant went down

to the river for some water.

As the little ant walked

to the tip of the leaf

to get a drink of water,

a sudden gust of wind

blew him into the river.

“Help! Help!

Someone please help!”

Nearby, resting bird in a tree

heard the ant screaming for help.

and went to see

what was going on.

“Oh no, little ant!

I’m going to throw you a leaf.

Get on top of it, okay?”

Thanks to the leaf.

the ant was saved.

And, he was able to

make it back into the land again.

“Phew! I’m saved!”

“Thank you so much!

I will never forget

what you did for me!”

When the little ant looked up

to look at the bird,

he saw a hunter aiming his bow

and arrow at his new bird friend.

“It’s a hunter!

Friend! Watch out!

There’s a hunter!

Quick! Fly away, friend!

Fly away!”

Even after the ant’s cries,

the bird still had on clue

as to what was going on.

The little ant didn’t know

what to do

except bite the hunter’s foot.

“Ouch!”

The hunter threw down

his bow and arrows

and hopped in pain.

“Ouch. Ouch.”

The screaming startled the bird.

He saw the hunter

and quickly flew away.

“Thank you, ant.

you saved my life.”

“And, you saved mine!

Thank you so much!”
