Source text - English The Lion and The Hare :
Once in a forest there lived a lion who was very proud of his strength. He would kill any animal which came in his way just for fun. All the animals in the forest were worried about their survival.
“If the lion keeps this up, none of us will be left in the forest," said the bear.
“He kills much more than he really needs to," squeaked the little hare.
“We have to come up with something to stop this massacre," said the monkey. So they all joined together and went to meet the lion.
“O king of the forest, we have come to make a small request," they all said to the lion.
“Now what would that be?" asked the amused lion.
“You are the king of the forest, but soon there will be no animals to rule over. So we beg you to stop this unreasonable killing and we promise that one of us will come to you everyday for your food," pleaded all the animals with the lion.
So from that day, the animals drew lots to decide on who was to go to the lion as his prey.
One day, the lots fell on the hare to visit the lion. All the animals consoled him and sent him on his way to meet his doom. But the hare was a clever animal. He did not want to die at the hands of the cruel lion. He saw an old well on the way. It was very deep and was a danger for all the animals. He thought of a plan.
The little hare went to sleep near the well all day. In the evening, he made his way to the lion's den. The lion was terribly hungry by then and when he saw a tiny hare coming towards him, he became furious.
“You little thing, how dare you come so late? How dare they send such a small animal? I will kill them all," the angry lion roared.
“It is not my fault, O mighty lion. There were three other hares with me. But on the way here, another lion attacked us. I just managed to escape. The other three hares were eaten by that lion,"said the hare.
“What? Another lion in my jungle? Take me to him immediately," said the lion in a fit of rage.
The hare took the lion to the well and pointed it out to him from a distance. The other lion jumped out at us from inside the well when we tried to drink some water from the well. The lion rushed angrily to the well and peeped in.
There inside the well he could see another lion glaring at him. What the foolish lion did not realise in his anger was that he was looking at his reflection. He roared angrily at the other lion. He heard an answering roar.
It was only the echo of his own roar. But the lion thought that the other lion was challenging him. He jumped in and landed inside with a loud splash. And that was the end of the wicked lion.
Translation - Indonesian The Lion and The Hare : Singa dan Kelinci :
Suatu ketika di dalam hutan, hiduplah seekor singa yang sangat sombong dengan kekuatannya. Dia akan membunuh hewan apa pun yang dilihatnya semata untuk bersenang-senang. Semua hewan di hutan khawatir dengan kelangsungan hidup mereka.
"Jika singa terus begini, tak satupun dari kita yang akan tersisa di hutan ini," kata beruang.
"Dia membunuh lebih banyak dari yang sebenarnya dia butuhkan," cicit kelinci kecil.
"Kita harus mencari cara untuk menghentikan pembantaian ini," kata monyet.
Maka, mereka semua berkumpul dan pergi menemui singa.
“Wahai, raja hutan, kami datang untuk mengajukan sedikit permohonan ,” kata mereka semua kepada singa.
"Apa itu?" tanya singa itu dengan geli.
“Engkau adalah raja hutan, tapi sebentar lagi takkan ada hewan yang bisa engkau kuasai lagi. Maka, kami memohon kepadamu untuk menghentikan pembunuhan yang tidak beralasan ini dan kami berjanji salah satu dari kami akan datang kepadamu setiap hari sebagai makananmu," pinta semua binatang kepada singa.
Maka, sejak hari itu, hewan-hewan itu membuat undian untuk memutuskan siapa yang akan menemui singa untuk dimangsa.
Suatu hari, undian jatuh kepada kelinci untuk menemui singa. Semua hewan menghibur dan mengirimnya untuk menemui ajalnya. Tapi kelinci hewan yang pintar. Dia tak ingin mati di tangan singa yang kejam itu. Ketika dia melihat sebuah sumur tua di perjalanan, dia memikirkan sebuah rencana. Sumur tua itu sangat dalam dan berbahaya bagi semua hewan.
Kemudian, kelinci kecil itu pergi beristirahat di dekat sumur tersebut seharian. Malamnya, dia pergi ke sarang singa. Singa itu sangat lapar pada saat itu dan ketika dia melihat seekor kelinci kecil datang menghampirinya, dia menjadi marah.
“Kau hewan kecil, beraninya kau datang terlambat? Beraninya mereka mengirim hewan sekecil ini? Aku akan membunuh mereka semua," raung singa dengan marah.
“Ini bukan salahku, wahai singa yang perkasa. Sebenarnya, ada tiga kelinci lain bersamaku. Tapi dalam perjalanan ke sini, singa lain menyerang kami. Aku berhasil melarikan diri, tapi Tiga kelinci lainnya dimakan oleh singa itu," kata kelinci.
"Apa? Singa lain di hutanku? Bawa aku kepadanya sekarang," kata singa dengan marah.
Kelinci pun membawa singa ke sumur dan menunjukkannya dari kejauhan. Singa lain menerkam kami dari dalam sumur waktu kami mencoba minum air dari sumur itu. Singa itu bergegas dengan marah menuju sumur dan mengintip ke dalam.
Di sana, di dalam sumur, singa itu melihat singa lain memelototinya. Apa yang tak disadari oleh singa bodoh itu dalam kemarahannya adalah bahwa dia sedang melihat bayangannya sendiri. Dia meraung marah pada singa tersebut. Dia mendengar raungan yang menjawab.
Padahal Itu hanya gema dari aumannya sendiri. Tetapi singa itu mengira bahwa singa tersebut sedang menantangnya. Dia melompat dan jatuh ke dalam sumur dengan ceburan keras. Dan itulah akhir dari seekor singa yang jahat.
