Æslet drager til Bremen
The donkey leaves for Bremen
Danish
I mange år bar et æsel sække med korn til møllen for sin ejer. Men nu var æslet gammelt og havde ikke længere kræfter til det tunge arbejde. Ejeren begyndte at tænke på, hvordan han kunne slippe for at give æslet mad. Æslet mærkede, at han var i fare, og løb sin vej.
English translation
For many years, a donkey carried sacks of grain to the mill for his owner. But now the donkey was old and no longer had the strength for the heavy work. His owner began to think about how he could get out of feeding the donkey. The donkey sensed that he was in danger and ran away.
Danish
Han gik mod Bremen, for der regnede han med at få arbejde som stadsmusikant, altså som musiker i byen.
English translation
He headed toward Bremen because he expected to find work there as a town musician, meaning a musician in the town.
