The Lion and the Mouse
सिंह र मुसो

A tiny mouse proves that even the smallest friend can be a great help.
एक दिन एउटा सिंह सुतिरहेको थियो। एउटा सानो मुसो उसको शरीरमाथि खेल्दै थियो।
One day, a lion was sleeping. A little mouse was playing on his body.
सिंह बिउँझ्यो र मुसोलाई समात्यो। मुसोले भन्यो, 'मलाई छाडिदिनुहोस्, कुनै दिन म तपाईंलाई सहयोग गर्छु।'
The lion woke up and caught the mouse. The mouse said, 'Please let me go, someday I will help you.'
सिंह हाँस्दै मुसोलाई छाडिदियो। केही दिनपछि सिंह शिकारीको जालमा फस्यो।
The lion laughed and let the mouse go. A few days later, the lion got trapped in a hunter's net.
मुसोले सिंहको जाल काटिदियो। सिंह मुक्त भयो र मुसोलाई धन्यवाद दियो।
The mouse chewed through the net and freed the lion. The lion thanked the mouse.
