The Washerman's Donkey and Horse | Moral Children Story | English Narration - Popcorn Videos

Описание: Once upon a time, in a village far far away, a washerman lived by the river. He owned a donkey and a horse. The washerman washed clothes so clean that no matter how bad a stain is, the villagers believed that he could vanish away every stain and dirt from their clothes. The washerman went door to door to every house in the village to collect the dirty clothes, and his donkey used to carry them back to his home. The donkey also carried a load of clothes when the washerman went to return the clothes to the villagers’ houses. The donkey used to get very tired after carrying such heavy loads to and fro.

The horse that belonged to the washerman was very pretty. It was very proud of its beautiful mane and never had to carry any load. The washerman used to visit the market and the other faraway places riding on the back of his horse. One sunny morning, the washerman was to go to the village to return the washed clothes to the villagers. He had put all the bundles of clothes on the back of his donkey, while he did not put any load on the back of his horse. The heavy load of clothes seemed to be unbearable for the donkey, but it did not say a word. It kept walking with the load.

The washerman, his donkey, and horse were halfway through when the donkey decided to ask the horse for help.

“Oh dear friend, can you carry some of the load on my back? The pain is unbearable for me” said the donkey.

The horse replied, “Huh! No brother, horses do not carry loads like donkeys. I carry our master to the market. Why should I carry your load?”

The donkey was disappointed. However, he did not stop walking. “Umph! Umph!” came the noise from the stumbling horse. No later than a few minutes, the donkey collapsed on the ground. The clean clothes fell down on the clay and became dirty.
The washerman thought to himself that he should have split a load of clothes equally on the donkey and the horse. After realising his mistake, the washerman took all the bundles of clothes and put them on the horse’s back.

The donkey was then relaxed and could walk without any load on its back. The horse thought to himself, “I wouldn’t have to carry all the clothes if I would have agreed to share some of it when the donkey had asked.” The horse had to carry all the clothes to the market. The horse then decided to always help people in need. So, the donkey and the horse shared every burden and became best friends for the rest of their days.
