The Ants and the Grasshopper
While a grasshopper spent the summer singing songs, the ants kept
gathering grain for the long winter.
On a fine winter day, when the ants were busy drying the grain, the hungry
grasshopper came to beg for some food.
"Give me some food, please."
"If you spent summer being foolish, you should dance all day without food
in winter," the ant said to the grasshopper.
"I was so foolish!" The grasshopper burst into tears.
