ፍየል፣ ዉሻና ላም ጥሩ ጓደኛሞች ነበሩ። አንድ ቀን በታክሲ ጉዞ ለማድረግ ተነሱ።
Goat, Dog, and Cow
were great friends. One
day they went on a
journey in a taxi.
ከጉዟቸው መጨረሻ ሲደርሱም ታክሲ ነጂው መሳፈሪያቸውን እንዲከፍሉ ጠየቃቸው። ላም የራሷን ሒሳብ ከፈለች።
When they reached the
end of their journey, the
driver asked them to
pay their fares. Cow
paid her fare.
ዉሻ ትንሽ ተጨማሪ ከፈለች፤ ምክንያቱም ትክክለኛው ዓይነት ገንዘብ ስላልነበራት ነው።
Dog paid a bit extra,
because he did not
have the correct money.
ሹፌሩ ለዉሻው መልስ ሊሰጣት ሲል ፍየል ምንም ሳትከፍል ሮጠች።
The driver was about to
give Dog his change
when Goat ran away
without paying
anything.
ሹፌሩ በጣም ስለተናደደ ለዉሻ ምንም መልስ ሳይሰጣት ሄደ።
The driver was very
annoyed. He drove
away without giving
Dog his change.
ለዚያ ነው ዛሬ ድረስ ዉሻ መኪና በመጣ ቁጥር እየሮጠች መልሷን ያልሰጣትን ሹፌር ፍለጋ ወደ መኪናው ውስጥ ለማየት የምትሞክረው።
That is why, even
today, Dog runs
towards a car to peep
inside and find the
driver who owes him his
change.
ፍየል የመኪና ድምጽ ስትሰማ ትሮጣለች። ምክንያቱም ሂሳብ ስላልከፈለች እንዳትታሰር ስለምትፈራ ነው።
Goat runs away from
the sound of a car. She
is afraid she will be
arrested for not paying
her fare.
ላም ግን መኪና ሲመጣ ምንም አትጨናነቅም። መንገድም ስታቋርጥ ተረጋግታ ነው፤ ምክንያቱም ሂሳብ የለባትማ።
And Cow is not
bothered when a car is
coming. Cow takes her
time crossing the road
because she knows she
paid her fare in full.
