The Ungrateful Lion

In a dense forest, lived a fierce lion. He was very cruel. One day the lion was caught in a hunter’s
trap. One by one many animals passed by. “Please helped me!” pleaded the lion. But none of the
animals listened to his plea.

After a while, a man happened to come into the forest. He saw the lion. The lion said, “I will die
of hunger and suffocation. Please help me out, O! kind man.” The man was thoughtful. “I assure
you I will never harm you. Please help me now. The hunter will be anytime now,” said the lion.

The man felt sorry for the lion and set the beast free. As soon as the lion was free, he let out a
fierce roar. “I have been trapped in the cage for a long time. I am hungry. I will have to eat you,”
said the lion, looking at the man. “But you promised that you would not harm me,” said the man,
in a meek tone. “Yes, I said that. But only to convince you to free me. Now, I am terribly hungry,”
said the lion.

The terrified man thought quickly. He said, “Alright, you can eat me. But let a judge decide if
you are right in eating the person who has rescued you.”

The lion agreed. He was sure that no animal would speak against him. Just then a jackal came
that way and the lion asked the jackal to be the judge. He addressed the lion, “Sir, would you
please show me how it all happened?” The lion was only too willing. He entered the cage and
closed the cage door. The jackal immediately bolted the cage from outside.

“Now the lion is trapped again. Run away, you foolish man! And never offer help to anyone
without thinking,” said the jackal. The frightened man ran for his life. And the ungrateful lion
was trapped in the cage again. The hunter came and took the lion away to his circus.

Moral value:

- Must think before acting, not to harm your self.

- So people have to know thank you, don't harm people who have helped us.

Singa Yang tak bersyukur
Di sebuah hutan lebat, hidup singa. Dia sangat kejam. Suatu hari singa itu tertangkap dalam
perangkap pemburu. Satu per satu hewan lewat. “Tolong bantu aku!” Pinta singa. Tapi tak satu
pun dari hewan mendengarkan permintaannya.

Setelah beberapa saat, seorang pria kebetulan datang ke hutan. Dia melihat singa. Singa itu
berkata, “Aku akan mati kelaparan dan mati lemas. Tolong bantu Aku keluar, !.” Aku jamin saya
tidak akan pernah menyakiti mu. Tolong bantu aku sekarang. Pemburu akan segera datang, “kata
singa.

Pria itu merasa kasihan pada singa dan membebaskan binatang itu. Begitu singa itu bebas, ia
mengeluarkan raungan sengit. “Aku telah terperangkap dalam kandang untuk waktu yang lama.
Aku lapar. Aku akan makan kamu, “kata singa, melihat pria itu.” Tapi kamu berjanji bahwa
kamu tidak akan menyakiti ku, “kata pria, dengan nada lemah lembut. “Ya, aku mengatakan itu.
Tapi hanya untuk meyakinkan mu untuk membebaskan ku. Sekarang, aku sangat lapar, “kata
singa.

Pria ketakutan berpikir cepat. Ia mengatakan, “Baiklah, kamu bisa makan aku. Tapi biar hakim
memutuskan apakah kamu boleh di makan orang yang telah menyelamatkanmu".

singa setuju. Dia yakin bahwa tidak ada hewan akan berbicara melawan nya. Saat itu seekor
serigala datang dan singa meminta serigala untuk menjadi hakim. Dia berkata pada singa, “Tuan
singa, tolong tunjukkan pada saya bagaimana semua itu terjadi?” Singa itu bersedia. Dia masuk
kandang dan menutup pintu kandang. Serigala segera melesat menutup kandang dari luar.

“Sekarang singa terperangkap lagi. Segeralah lari, kamu orang bodoh! Dan jangan pernah
menawarkan bantuan kepada siapa pun tanpa berpikir, “kata serigala. Orang itu berlari. Dan
singa yang tak tahu bersyukur terjebak di kandang lagi. Pemburu datang dan mengambil singa
dan membawanya ke sirkus.

Pesan Moral:

-Harus berfikir sebelum bertindak, jangan sampai mencelakakan diri.

-Jadi orang harus tahu terima kasih, jangan mencelakai orang yang sudah membantu kita.
