The Thirsty Crow
तिर्खाएको काग
A clever crow finds an ingenious way to drink water from a narrow pitcher.
एक दिन एउटा काग धेरै तिर्खायो। उसले पानी खोज्दै धेरै टाढा उड्यो।
One day, a crow was very thirsty. He flew far and wide searching for water.
अन्तमा उसले एउटा गाग्रो देख्यो। गाग्रोमा अलिकति पानी थियो तर उसको चुच्चो पुग्दैनथ्यो।
At last, he found a pitcher. There was a little water at the bottom, but his beak could not reach it.
कागले सोच्यो र एउटा उपाय निकाल्यो। उसले सानासाना ढुंगा बटुल्यो र एउटा एउटा गरेर गाग्रोमा हाल्यो।
The crow thought and came up with a plan. He picked up small pebbles one by one and dropped them into the pitcher.
बिस्तारै पानी माथि आयो। कागले खुसीसाथ पानी खायो।
Slowly, the water rose up. The crow happily drank the water.
