🦚🕊 The Peacock and the Crane

📜 The Peacock and the Crane
Aesop’s Fable – Easy English Version

NARRATOR:
One warm morning, a proud peacock was walking near a quiet lake.
He saw his reflection in the water and admired his colorful feathers.
Bright blues, greens, and gold shimmered in the sunlight.

Just then, a quiet gray crane landed nearby.

🦚 PEACOCK:
“Look at me! Aren’t I the most beautiful bird you’ve ever seen?
My tail shines like jewels. You are so plain and gray!”

NARRATOR:
The crane looked at the peacock and smiled gently.
He was not angry or jealous.

🦤 CRANE:
“Yes, your feathers are very pretty.
You shine like a rainbow. But tell me—can you fly high into the sky?”

NARRATOR:
The peacock flapped his wings proudly and took off from the ground…
but only for a few seconds. He could not go far.
Peacocks can fly, but not high or long.

NARRATOR:
Then the crane opened his wide wings.
With strong, steady beats, he soared into the sky.
He flew above the trees, over the lake, and up past the clouds.

The peacock watched from below, silent now.

NARRATOR (ending):
Beauty can be admired, but it does not last forever.
What truly matters is what you can do—your abilities, your character, and your heart.
The crane had no bright colors, but he could fly freely where the peacock could only dream.

THE END.
