The mighty ocean did not hear the plea of the little bird, and continued smashing the see shore, coming closer and closer to the bird nest. Unable to do something, the sparrow could only see how slowly the ocean drag away his babies along with the entire nest, finally a great wave took away everything. The sparrow mother screamed: "My babies! Oh, please give them back to me!" Laughing the ocean answered: "Never, your eggs are now deep in my waters." Crying and crying, the sparrow looked upon the sky and said: "Oh Supreme Lord, master of the universe and creator of everything, please help me!" In her despair, she said to the ocean: "If you do not give me back my babies, I will take all your waters with my beak! I will dry you up. And then she started taking some drops of water away while the great ocean, proud of being so huge, was laughing. |
