The Rabbit And The Bear

Once upon a time, there lived as neighbors, a bear and a rabbit. The rabbit was a good shot. In
contrary, the bear was always clumsy and could not use the arrow to good advantage.
One day, the bear called over the rabbit and asked the rabbit to take his bow and arrows and
came with bear to the other side of the hill. The rabbit was preventing to arouse the bear’s anger
so he could not refuse it. He consented and went with the bear and shot enough buffalo to satisfy
the hungry family. Indeed he shot and killed so many that there was lots of meat left after the
bear and his family had loaded themselves and packed all they could carry home.
The bear was very gluttonous and did not want the rabbit to get any of the meat. The rabbit could
not even taste the blood from the butchering as the bear would throw earth on the blood and dry
it up. The poor rabbit would have to go home hungry after his hard day’s work.
The bear was the father of five children. The youngest child was very kind to the rabbit. He was
very hearty eater. The mother bear always gave him an extra large piece of meat but the youngest
child did not eat it. He would take it outside with him and pretended to play ball with the meat.
He kicked toward the rabbit’s house and when he got close to the door he would give the meat
with such a great kick. The meat would fly into the rabbit’s house. In this way, the poor rabbit
would get his meal unknown to the papa bear.

The Fairy Tulips
Once upon a time there was a good old woman who lived in a little house. She had in her garden
a bed of beautiful striped tulips.
One night she was wakened by the sounds of sweet singing and of babies laughing. She looked
out at the window. The sounds seemed to come from the tulip bed, but she could see nothing.
The next morning she walked among her flowers, but there were no signs of any one having been
there the night before.
On the following night she was again wakened by sweet singing and babies laughing. She rose
and stole softly through her garden. The moon was shining brightly on the tulip bed, and the
flowers were swaying to and fro. The old woman looked closely and she saw, standing by each
tulip, a little Fairy mother who was crooning and rocking the flower like a cradle, while in each
tulip-cup lay a little Fairy baby laughing and playing.
The good old woman stole quietly back to her house, and from that time on she never picked a
tulip, nor did she allow her neighbors to touch the flowers.
The tulips grew daily brighter in color and larger in size, and they gave out a delicious perfume
like that of roses. They began, too, to bloom all the year round. And every night the little Fairy
mothers caressed their babies and rocked them to sleep in the flower-cups.
The day came when the good old woman died, and the tulip-bed was torn up by folks who did
not know about the Fairies, and parsley was planted there instead of the flowers. But the parsley
withered, and so did all the other plants in the garden, and from that time nothing would grow
there.
But the good old woman’s grave grew beautiful, for the Fairies sang above it, and kept it green;
while on the grave and all around it there sprang up tulips, daffodils, and violets, and other lovely
flowers of spring.
Terjemahannya
Peri peri

Dahulu kala ada seorang wanita tua yang baik yang tinggal di sebuah rumah kecil. Dia pernah
berada di kebunnya tempat tidur tulip bergaris-garis.

Suatu malam dia terbangun oleh suara nyanyian dan bayi yang manis sambil tertawa. Dia
melihat ke luar jendela. Suara itu sepertinya berasal dari ranjang tulip, tapi dia tidak bisa melihat
apa-apa.

Keesokan paginya dia berjalan di antara bunga-bunganya, tapi tidak ada tanda-tanda ada
seseorang yang pernah ada di sana tadi malam.

Pada malam berikutnya dia kembali terbangun oleh nyanyian dan bayi yang manis sambil
tertawa. Dia bangkit dan mencuri dengan lembut melalui kebunnya. Bulan bersinar terang di atas
tempat tidur tulip, dan bunganya bergoyang-goyang. Wanita tua itu melihat dari dekat dan dia
melihat, berdiri di samping masing-masing tulip, seorang ibu Peri kecil yang sedang menyentak
dan mengayunkan bunga itu seperti buaian, sementara di setiap cangkir tulip ada bayi Peri kecil
yang tertawa dan bermain.

Wanita tua yang baik itu mencuri dengan tenang ke rumahnya, dan sejak saat itu dia tidak pernah
memilih tulip, juga tidak membiarkan tetangganya menyentuh bunga.

Bunga tulip tumbuh lebih cerah setiap hari dan ukurannya lebih besar, dan mereka mengeluarkan
parfum lezat seperti mawar. Mereka mulai juga mekar sepanjang tahun. Dan setiap malam ibu
Peri kecil membelai bayi mereka dan mengayunkan mereka untuk tidur di cangkir bunga.

Hari itu tiba ketika wanita tua yang baik meninggal, dan tempat tidur tulip dirobek oleh orang-
orang yang tidak tahu tentang Peri, dan peterseli ditanam di sana dan bukan di bunganya. Tapi
peterseli layu, begitu juga tanaman lain di kebun, dan sejak saat itu tidak ada yang tumbuh di
sana.

Tapi kuburan wanita tua yang baik itu tumbuh cantik, karena Peri menyanyikannya di atasnya,
dan membuatnya tetap hijau; Sementara di atas kuburan dan di sekelilingnya, muncul bunga
tulip, bunga daffodil, dan bunga violet, dan bunga musim semi lainnya yang indah.
