The Clever Mouse
बाठो मुसो
A tiny mouse outsmarts a hungry cat using a bell.
एउटा घरमा 'सुरी' नामको बिरालोले मुसाहरूलाई धेरै सताउँथ्यो। मुसाहरू डराएका थिए।
In a house, a cat named 'Suri' troubled the mice a lot. The mice were afraid.
सबैभन्दा सानो मुसो, 'चिची', ले एउटा जुक्ति निकाल्यो। 'हामीले बिरालोको घाँटीमा घण्टी बाँध्नुपर्छ,' उसले भन्यो।
The smallest mouse, 'Chichi', came up with a plan. 'We must tie a bell around the cat's neck,' he said.
जब बिरालो सुतेको थियो, चिचीले बिस्तारै घण्टी बाँधिदियो।
When the cat was sleeping, Chichi quietly tied the bell.
अब बिरालो आउँदा 'टिङ-टिङ' बज्थ्यो, र मुसाहरू भाग्थे। बुद्धिले शक्तिलाई जित्यो।
Now when the cat came, it went 'Ting-Ting', and the mice ran away. Intelligence won over strength.
