Hikaye İngilizce "THE POOR FISHERMAN"

Once there was a man and his wife.

They had no house.

They lived in the fields.

And they slept at the foot of a tree.

The man caught fish.

He was a fisherman.

The man was  happy.

He said " why do men live in houses".

"This tree is my house".

"We have no house".

"We have no bed".

The fields are my bed.

But his wife was not happy.

She said  "why did I marry a poor fisherman".

We have no house.

We have no bed.

One day .

The fisherman went to the sea to catch the fish.

He put his net to  the water.

Then he sat on  a stone.

The sun was hot.

And he fell asleep.

When he awoke

He took his net.

There was one fish in the net.

It was large and golden.

"a beatiful fish".

He was very happy

He said"my wife will be glad".

"When she sees this beatiful fish".

Then the fish spoke.

He said "good man ".

Do not kill me.

Put me back to the sea.

The fisherman said "Can you speak?".

I didn't see a fish that  could speak.

The fish said " Good Man".

"Put me back to  the sea".

"I do not eat a fish that can speak".

Then he threw the fish  into the sea.

The fisherman went back to his wife that night.

He had no fish.

So they had no food.

He said to his wife.

" I caught one fish".

But the fish spoke.

So I threw him back into the water.

I can   not kill  a fish .

Because it  can  speak.

The Fisherman's wife said.

It is a wizard.

It was not a fish.

But some wizard can become a fish.

The fisherman said.

"I do not know".

"if it was a wizard".

"The fish did not tell" said the fisherman.

 The fisherman's wife said.

"Did you ask him for anything".

 "I did not ask him for anything"  said the man.

"Why do we live in the fields".

"You must  want  a hut".

 next day.

the fisherman went back to the sea.

He stood on the stone .

and he called.

"Man of the sea".

"Come to me".

Then the fish put his head out of the water.

and it asked.

"What do you want?".

The fisherman said"I do not want anything".

But  my wife wants to live in a hut.

"Go back to your wife " said the fish.

You will find her in a hut.
