The Brave Gorkhali Boy
बहादुर गोर्खाली केटो
A young boy shows courage by protecting his village from a forest fire.
गोर्खाको एउटा सानो गाउँमा विवश नामको केटो बस्थ्यो। ऊ ठूलो भएर बहादुर सिपाही बन्न चाहन्थ्यो।
In a small village in Gorkha lived a boy named Bibas. He wanted to grow up to be a brave soldier.
एक दिन, जंगलमा डढेलो लाग्यो। आगो गाउँतिर बढ्दै थियो। सबैजना डराएर भाग्न थाले।
One day, a forest fire broke out. The fire was moving towards the village. Everyone started running in fear.
विवशले हिम्मत हारेन। उसले साथीहरूलाई बटुल्यो र पानी हालेर आगो निभाउने कोसिस गर्यो।
Bibas did not lose heart. He gathered his friends and tried to put out the fire with water.
उसको साहस देखेर गाउँलेहरू पनि फर्किए। सबै मिलेर आगो निभाए र गाउँ जोगाए।
Seeing his courage, the villagers also returned. Together, they extinguished the fire and saved the village.
