treasury of stories riddles for kids and
0:13
scripts there once was a poor farmer in
0:16
Afghanistan who found it a great
0:18
struggle to get ahead in the
0:21
world though he worked very hard and
0:23
lived carefully it was impossible for
0:25
him to save money year after year after
0:29
an entire lifetime time of Labor he was
0:30
no better off it seemed than he had been
0:33
on the day he was born one morning he
0:36
seized on the notion that if ever he was
0:38
to own anything at all in this hard
0:41
world it would have to Simply appear
0:43
before him he wished and wished that one
0:47
morning he would wake up and discover
0:49
Riches of Plenty heaped upon his own
0:52
Hearth that way he would have no doubt
0:54
that the good fortune was intended for
0:57
him he thought of this as he went about
1:00
his daily tasks in the fields It
1:02
Happened One day while he was working
1:04
that some brambles in the field caught
1:08
clothes so that this wouldn't happen
1:10
again the man dug a little around the
1:12
roots and pulled the brambles out of the
1:16
ground as he did so he uncovered the top
1:19
of a large earn jar in great excitement
1:22
he dug a little more and then removed
1:26
jar he found that the jar was filled to
1:29
the brim with silver coins at first he
1:33
delighted but after a few minutes of
1:37
said oh I wish for riches upon my own
1:41
Hearth but instead I have found this
1:43
money out here in the Open
1:46
Fields therefore I shall not take it for
1:49
if it were intended for me it would
1:51
surely have appeared on my own Hearth as
1:55
wished so the man left the treasure
1:57
where he had found it and went home when
2:00
he arrived he told his wife about his
2:02
Discovery the woman was angry at her
2:04
husband's foolishness and leaving the
2:08
field when her husband lay down to sleep
2:10
she went out to the house of a neighbor
2:12
and told him all about it saying my
2:16
stupid husband found a hord of money in
2:18
the fields but the blockhead refuses to
2:21
bring it home go and get it for yourself
2:24
and share it with me the neighbor was
2:27
very pleased with the suggestion and he
2:30
went out to find the treasure where the
2:31
woman had described it there where the
2:34
Bramble Bush had been uprooted indeed
2:38
jar he took it from the ground and
2:41
opened it but when he lifted the lid he
2:44
saw not silver coins but a Jar full of
2:49
snakes into the neighbor's mind rushed
2:52
the thought ah that woman must be my
2:54
enemy she hoped I would put my hand in
2:57
the jar to be bitten and poison poisoned
3:01
so he replaced the lid and carried the
3:04
jar back home with him just as he had
3:06
found it when night came he went to the
3:08
house of the poor farmer climbed on the
3:11
roof and emptied the jar of poisonous
3:15
chimney when Dawn came the poor farmer
3:18
who had first discovered the jar got up
3:22
day as the morning rays of the sun fell
3:26
upon the Hearth his eyes opened wide
3:31
for the Hearth was covered with silver
3:33
coins his heart swelled with
3:37
gratitude he said oh finally I can
3:41
accept these riches knowing that they
3:44
are surely intended for me as they
3:47
appeared upon my own hear as I wished
