The fox flatters the crow

Greek

Μια μέρα, ένας αλεπούδος είδε ένα κοράκι με ένα κομμάτι τυρί στο ράμφος του. Το κοράκι πέταξε και κάθισε σε ένα κλαδί. Ο αλεπούδος ήθελε το τυρί και πήγε κάτω από το δέντρο.

English translation

One day, a fox saw a crow with a piece of cheese in her beak. The crow flew up and perched on a branch. The fox wanted the cheese and went beneath the tree.

Greek

«Καλημέρα, κυρά Κοράκι!» φώναξε. «Τι όμορφη που είσαι σήμερα! Τα φτερά σου είναι όμορφα και το μάτι σου λάμπει. Σίγουρα θα έχεις και πολύ όμορφη φωνή. Θέλω να ακούσω ένα τραγούδι σου. Τότε θα σε πω βασίλισσα των πουλιών».
