LESSON -3 THE PIGEON AND THE BEE (AL HAMAAMATU WA NAHLA)


TRANSLATION:

1 1) On a hot day the bee flew to the pond to drink water, and fell into the water. The bee tried to get out of the water but could not do so, it tried the second time and the third time but it could not.
 

2. There was a pigeon (standing) on the branch of the tree. The tree was close to the pond. The pigeon heard the calls..... Save me........ Save me.... I am drowning........I am drowning!!!

3) The pigeon looked down below it and saw the bee drowning in the water. The pigeon said: “This small bee is in danger. How can I help it?


4) The pigeon thought very quickly. It said: “I have a great idea. I will throw a branch of the tree in the water. The branch will swim like a boat, then the bee can ride in it."

5) The pigeon got hold of a branch with it's break, and threw it into the pond. The branch was now close to the bee now. The bee helped itself to reach the branch and stood on it.

6) The bee looked at the pigeon and said “Thank you, O pigeon. Insha Allah,
   I will help you on a day soon. “The bee happily flew away.

7) The next day a hunter came to the forest. With him was a large gun. He saw the pigeon on the tree. The hunter raised the gun to shoot the bullet at the pigeon.

8) The bee saw the hunter. The bee flew fast and sting the hunter on his arm. The hunter's hand shook, and the bullet strayed far away from the pigeon.

9) The pigeon flew and between the trees the hunter searched for the pigeon. The hunter never found the pigeon. Searching desperately for the pigeon the hunter went very far away.

10) The pigeon meet the bee. The pigeon said: “Thank you my friend. You rescued my life. “The bee replied, “You rescued my life before that."
