The Dancing Peacock
नाच्ने मयुर
A proud peacock in Chitwan learns the value of friendship over beauty.
चितवनको जंगलमा, मयुर नामको एउटा घमण्डी मयुर बस्थ्यो। उसले आफूलाई सबैभन्दा सुन्दर चरा ठान्थ्यो।
In the jungles of Chitwan, there lived a proud peacock named Mayur. He thought he was the most beautiful bird.
'मेरा प्वाँखहरू हेर!' ऊ भन्थ्यो, एक्लै नाच्दै। ऊ अरू चराहरूसँग बोल्दैन थियो।
'Look at my feathers!' he would say, dancing alone. He did not talk to the other birds.
एक दिन, ठूलो पानी पर्यो। मयुर चिप्लिएर हिलोमा फस्यो। उसका गह्रौं प्वाँखहरूले गर्दा उसलाई चल्न गाह्रो भयो।
One day, it rained heavily. Mayur slipped and got stuck in the mud. His heavy feathers made it hard to move.
कुरूप कागहरू र भँगेराहरूले उसलाई बाहिर निकाले। मयुरले महसुस गर्यो कि सुन्दरता भन्दा साथीहरू महत्त्वपूर्ण हुन्छन्।
The ugly crows and sparrows helped him out. Mayur realized that friends are more important than beauty.
