Once a cunning jackal jumped into a big tub of blue dye “I am your king,” he said All the animals, big and small believed him and bowed before him The clever jackal smiled Now he was the most powerful animal in the forest He was proud to be a king
Once, the jackal woke up in the middle of the night The jackals in the forest were howling at the full moon in the sky The blue jackal forgot he was a king He, too, began to howl “Hu…aah! Hu…aah!” he cried The animals ran out to see “He is not a king He is just a jackal!” they shouted They rushed to attack him “Stop, stop!
