English Original
A greedy dog stole a big, juicy bone from a butcher's shop and ran into the fields to enjoy it alone. He came to a stream with a narrow bridge. As he crossed, he looked down and saw another dog in the water, holding what seemed to be an even bigger bone.
Thinking the other dog's bone was larger, the greedy dog dropped his own bone into the water to snatch the bigger one. He jumped in with a splash, but the other dog—his own reflection—vanished.
In the end, the silly dog went home hungry. He lost everything because of his greed.
中文翻译
一只贪婪的狗从肉店偷了一块又大又多汁的骨头，跑到田野里想独自享用。他来到一条小溪边，溪上有一座窄桥。过桥时，他低头看向水中，看见另一只狗叼着一块看起来更大的骨头。
贪婪的狗以为水中狗的骨头更大，便丢下自己的骨头，跳进水里想去抢夺那块更大的。他扑通一声跳入水中，但那只狗——他自己的倒影——消失了。
最终，这只愚蠢的狗饿着肚子回家了。因为贪婪，他失去了一切。
