[Music] once upon a time while the summer was still blooming the animals living in the forest the birds and the insects were making the most of the summer and of course they had no trouble finding food it was an ordinary day for the lazy grasshopper he was eating the roots of the herbs he had picked whilst playing the violin and singing under a tree oh what a lovely day la la la la play and sing along with my violin and i don't know the rest of the words to this song but it's okay when he
finished his ear bleeding song he heard a noise and listened carefully in order to understand where and who the noise was coming from he quickly jumped up high onto the branches of the tree and right there he saw from a distance an ants trail they were marching like soldiers with great difficulty the ants were carrying seeds and dry fruits that had fallen off from the trees the grasshopper jumped to the ground and as confused as he was he watched the trail of ants disappear i never seem to get these ants they're always working right at
that moment he noticed an ant coming his way the ant was trying to carry a seed much bigger than himself [Music] just as he was passing the grasshopper the ant dropped the seed he was carrying in fact he needed to rest the grasshopper stared at him with meaningless eyes are you moving somewhere now don't tell me there's a big disaster approaching is that why you're running away now well then may i ask what you're doing we are carrying fruit to our nests rightio you must be expecting a lot of visitors tonight then we are selling
food for winter you're storing food for the winter what for and besides why the rush there's still a long time for winter have fun just make the most out of the summer is that so so what do you suggest we do for winter i'm sure we'll find something fun to do don't worry all you ever think about is fun what will we eat i'm asking you i'll think about that when winter starts now it's summer and there's plenty to eat everywhere the ant had enough listening to the lazy grasshoppers nonsense and tried to put the
seed on his back once again i must keep up with my friends will they help me to put the seat on my back a singer and an artist like me shouldn't carry such heavy things after hearing such an answer from the grasshopper the ant gave the grasshopper a rather interesting look and continued to try and put the seed on his back i suppose i could give you a little help the grasshopper picked up the rather small seed off the ground and placed it on the anne's pack the ant thanked him and continued on his way
water uses an empty effort the grasshopper continued to lay under the tree after having something small to eat he continued to play his violin oh what a lovely day la la la play and sing along with my violin and so i couldn't make up the rest [Music] right at that moment a squirrel took [Music] the instant the grasshopper stopped his singing he took a glance at the squirrel grabbed his violin and he took off they don't know how to appreciate an artist in this forest as the hot summer days continued the ants continued on carrying
food to their nests while the grasshopper continued to eat walk around have fun playing his violin and sing finally the cold winter had arrived one morning when the ants woke up they had a look outside from their nests and saw that everything was covered in white snow all the little ant could think of was the other animals living in the cold freezing and hungry on the other hand due to all the plants being covered with snow the grasshopper hadn't eaten a single thing for days he was shivering had lost all his strength and wasn't able
to play the violin or sing with great strength he was trying to walk on the snow suddenly he thought about the hot summer days how nice were those days everywhere was covered in food i had a full stomach i was always happy at that moment he thought about the ant he carried food to his nest all summer long later he realized he didn't like this idea he had made fun out of him during the summer would he help him now he wondered and now it was way too cold for the grasshopper to walk it's now
time to be proud i have to find the ants nest and ask for help he heads straight to the ant's nest he stood in front of the door and yelled is anybody there please help how is it from the nest he heard a noise the grasshopper with his last strength answered my dear friend and it's me grasshopper please take me by this time hearing all that was being said the queen and approached the little ant what's going on who wants help just a lazy grasshopper that sits around sings all day my queen i think he
is hungry and seeks help anyone who ends up at our doorstep and seeks help should not be rejected the queen and all the other ants approached the front door of the nest and opened it the grasshopper was there lying down on the snow because he had no strength anymore the ants immediately picked the grasshopper up and carried him into the nest the grasshopper came to himself thanks to the warmth of their nest they gave him water and food now he was feeling much better the grasshopper thanked the queen and walked next to the little end
i have been very unfair to you while you were working all summer long i sat down and just sang and actually you warned me but i did not take you seriously i regret that this should be a big lesson for you we also would like to have fun all summer long but we do have to think about the future too if we did not get a food during summer we might have been in the same position as you the grasshopper stayed in their nest for a while he was now much better and healthier when it
was time to go the ants gave the grasshopper some food thank you for everything you saved my life and i will never forget that and i will never be lazy from now on can i ask for a favor sure tell me what do you like um when it's summer you can take music lessons learn to play the violin and make all the other animals happy ha ha ha maybe ha ha ha ha ha
