The Young Crab & His Mother

Kepiting muda dan Ibunya

“Why in the world do you walk sideways like that?” said a Mother Crab to her son.

Kenapa kamu berjalan menyamping seperti itu? ”Kata Ibu Kepiting kepada putranya.

“You should always walk straight forward with your toes turned out.”

“Kamu harus selalu berjalan lurus ke depan dengan jari-jari kaki terbuka.”

“Show me how to walk, mother dear,” answered the little Crab obediently, “I want to learn.”

“Tunjukkan padaku bagaimana caranya berjalan, ibu sayang,” jawab Kepiting kecil dengan patuh, “Aku ingin belajar.”

So the mother Crab tried and tried to walk straight forward. But she could walk sideways only, like her son.

Maka ibu kepiting mencoba dan mencoba berjalan lurus ke depan. Tapi dia hanya bisa berjalan ke samping, seperti putranya.

And when she wanted to turn her toes out she tripped and fell on her nose.

Dan ketika dia ingin membalikkan jari kakinya dia tersandung dan jatuh di hidungnya.
