English Original
A Dog, looking for a place to take its afternoon nap, jumped into the Manger of an Ox and settled comfortably on the straw. Soon after, the Ox returned from its work and approached the Manger to eat some straw. Awakened from its slumber, the Dog flew into a rage. It stood up, barked at the Ox, and tried to bite it whenever it came near. Finally, the Ox had to give up hope of reaching the straw and went away muttering:
"Ah, people often grudge others what they cannot enjoy themselves."

一只狗想找个地方睡午觉,便跳进了牛的马槽里,舒舒服服地躺在稻草上。不久,牛干完活回来,走到马槽边想吃些稻草。狗被从睡梦中惊醒,勃然大怒。它站起来对着牛狂吠,每当牛靠近时就试图咬它。最终,牛不得不放弃了吃到稻草的希望,一边走开一边低声抱怨:
“唉,人们常常自己无法享用某物,却也不愿让别人得到。”
