The singing donkey
There once was an old merchant that had an old donkey who carried heavy loads on his back everyday. Because he was not satisfied with the food that he received from his owner, the donkey used to go to a nearby field and eat people's crops.
One night the donkey met a dog. They became friends and went together on a field where they found a lot of cucumbers. They were so happy with what they found that they decided to come everyday and quench their hunger.
One time, after a nice meal, the donkey decided to sing a song, but the dog warned him not to do so. The donkey did not listen to him and started singing. The dog ran away and dissapeared.
The guard heard the donkey roar in the middle of the field, so he woke up immediately and went to beat the animal.
The donkey immediately ran away to save his life, and then he realized his mistake and was sorry for not listening to the good advice that the dog gave him.
It is better to always think before you act.
