English Original
A kid climbed onto the roof of an outhouse, attracted by the grass and other plants growing in the thatch. As he stood there browsing, he spotted a wolf passing below and jeered at him because the wolf couldn't reach him.
The wolf merely looked up and said, "I hear you, my young friend. But it is not you who mocks me, but the roof on which you are standing."

一只小山羊被茅草屋顶上生长的青草和其他植物所吸引,爬上了一间外屋的屋顶。正当他站在那儿吃草时,瞥见一只狼从下面经过。因为狼够不着他,小山羊便嘲笑起狼来。
狼只是抬起头说道:“我听见了,年轻的朋友。但嘲弄我的并不是你,而是你所站立的屋顶。”
