The crow was cawing with pain.
The tree consoled him.
"It's life, friend. There's pain and then
there's happiness. Do you see my branch?
Its dry and leafless
The crow felt better and said:
"We share our pain.
If Im not disturbing you, allow me
to build a nest on this branch."
The tree said:
"Its my pleasure.You have wings
to fly and bring me back
news of the mountains.
My biggest wish is to know what
goes on behind the mountain.
Im certain there are cool springs.
Trees there arent thirsty like me. I yearn
for a river that can quench my thirst."
Who knows the meaning of that word?
Zamani, do you know
To pour.
To sprinkle.
Keep reading!
The raven said "if I make a nest here,
you won't be so lonely and hopeless."
And I'll do everything
in my power for you.
Now that you've rested, I'll go beyond
the mountain to bring you the news.
He said it and flew off to the skies.
When he reached beyond the
mountain, he saw a valley
with pleasant weather
and flowing rivers.

he reached the fountain...
with crystal clear water.

bears the marks of our men's heroics.

brave and bold and pious,
Died with their souls in peace,
and left this land to us with honour.
