THE STRAW, CHARCOAL AND THE PEA
A long time ago there lived a poor grandmother. “Today, I will make a dish out of peas.” Grandmother prepared to light the oven furnace with firewood and straw. “Ouch, Ouch” “Oh my goodness.” As soon as the peas were poured into the pot, each one cried out.
Just then, when the grandmother wasn’t looking one pea jumped out of the pot and rolled in front the straw. “Whew! I made it. But where am I?” The pea whispered to himself.
Right about then, a lump of charcoal that was burning in the furnace made a small cry and flew out. “Gosh! This is hard” The charcoal squinted his eyes and wiped his sweat away.
The straw first questioned the pea. “Pea, how did you get here?” “From grandmother’s pot, just as the fire was being lite up to cook me and my friends, I ran away” The pea proudly boasted.
Next, the straw asked the charcoal. “How did you get here?” “With all my strength from the pot, I just barely got out.” Charcoal replied weakly.
When the straw heard this, he poured out his heart too. “My fate is similar to yours too. All my brothers went into the fire, but luckily I slipped out through the fingers.” “Oh I see!” “Really?” The pea and the charcoal each said a word and nodded.
Charcoal said in a worried voice. “What should we do now?” “Since, we all escaped luckily let us live together in this strange land.”
In hearing pea, charcoal and straw thought for a moment. “What should we do?” “I think we should do what the pea said.” So, the pea, charcoal and the straw decided to leave that place.
It hadn’t been long since they left when they came across a stream. “How can we cross the stream?” “There’s no stepping stone, if only there were some logs.? “We can’t go back, can’t there be a better way?” They stared at one another and worried.
A little while later, the straw thought of a good idea. “Since my body is light and long, if I lie down and stretch myself across the stream you guys can cross.” “Will it be alright?” “We will have to see.” On the one hand, pea and charcoal couldn’t help in worrying.
The straw laid across the stream. “Hurry! You must cross quickly. If you stay in one place too long, I could catch on fire.” Charcoal quickly began crossing over the straw.
But, as charcoal was crossing, he looked down. “I'm scared! Oh what should I doΑ” Charcoal could no longer move. “Hurry up and cross!” Straw said with all his might.
However, just at that moment, from the charcoal the straw caught on fire. “Oh no!” The straw broke in two and fell into the stream. “Ahh!” At the same time, charcoal fell into the water.
Pea, who was watching this scene, couldn’t help laughing. “Ha Ha Ha” “Ha Ha Ha” The pea laughed so hard that he broke in two. “Oh no, I’m dying”
Luckily just then, a tailor was crossing the bridge. “I will rest here for a while.” “Help me” the tailor heard a faint voice and found the split pea.
The sympathetic tailor sewed the split pea back together, “You are lucky that I’m a tailor.” “I’m really fortunate.” As the tailor was finishing up sewing the pea, the pea said gratefully.
The pea thanked the tailor. “Thank you very much.” “But, because the thread is black there will be a mark.” Just like the tailor said, since then there was a black mark down the middle of the pea.
参考翻译
很久以前，有一个贫穷的祖母。“今天，我要用豌豆做一道菜。”祖母准备用柴火和稻草点燃炉子。“哎哟，哎哟”“哦我的上帝。“只要豌豆倒进锅里，每一个哭了。
就在这时，当祖母没有看的时候，一只豌豆从锅里跳了出来，滚到了稻草前面。“唷!我成功了。但我在哪里?豌豆对自己耳语道。
就在这时，一块木炭在炉子里燃烧，发出一声小小的哭声就飞走了。“天啊!这是艰难的“炭眯着眼睛，擦了擦汗水带走。
稻草先问豌豆。“豌豆，你怎么到这儿来的?“从奶奶的锅，就像火被精简了做饭我和我的朋友，我跑了”豌豆骄傲。
下一步，稻草问木炭。“你怎么到这儿来的?“我从锅里拿出全部力气，我几乎没法出来。”。
当稻草听到这个，他也倾吐了他的心。“我的命运和你的一样。我所有的兄弟都进了火，幸好我从指缝里滑了出来!“真的吗?豌豆和木炭各自说了一句话，点了点头。
炭用焦急的声音说。“我们现在该怎么办?“既然，我们都侥幸逃脱了，让我们一起住在这个陌生的地方。”
听到豌豆，木炭和稻草想了一会儿。“我们该怎么办?“我想我们应该照豌豆说的去做，”豌豆、木炭和稻草决定离开那个地方。
他们走了一段小溪后不久就离开了。“我们怎么过这条小溪?“如果有一些圆木，就没有踏脚石.?“我们不能回去，难道没有更好的办法吗?他们互相凝视着，担心。
过了一会儿，稻草想到了一个好主意。“因为我的身体又轻又长，如果我躺下来伸懒腰，你们可以越过。”“我们必须看到。”一方面，豌豆和木炭不能帮助担心。
稻草铺在小溪上。“快点!你必须快速穿越。如果你呆在一个地方太久，我会着火的.“木炭很快就越过了稻草。
但是，当炭横过时，他往下看。“我害怕!哦，我该怎么办Α“木炭不再动弹。“快点和十字架!Straw尽其所能说
然而就在那一刻，从炭火上冒出的稻草。“哦不!稻草打破了两条，掉进了小溪里。“啊!同时，木炭落入水中。
豌豆，谁看这一幕，忍不住笑。哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈大笑。“哦不，我要死了”
幸运的是，就在这时，一个裁缝正在过桥。“我在这儿休息一会儿。”“帮帮我。”裁缝听到一个微弱的声音，发现了裂开的豌豆。
交感神经的裁缝师缝制的豌豆一起回来，“你是幸运的，我是一个裁缝。”“我真的很幸运。”裁缝完成缝纫的豌豆，豌豆感激地说。
豌豆感谢裁缝。“非常谢谢你”，“但是，因为线是黑色的，会有一个记号。”就像裁缝说的那样，从那以后，豌豆中间有一个黑色的记号。
