Μηα θνξά θη έλαλ θαηξό, δνύζε έλαο ςαξάο θησρόο,

ςάξηα πήγε λα ςαξέςεη, όπσο θάζε πξσηλό.

Once upon a time there was a fisherman. He used to go fishing every

morning.

Μα, λα! Τα θύκαηα εθεί αλαηαξάδνληαη πνιύ!

Oh, God! There is a turbulence.

Αθνύεη θη έλα βνγθεηό... βνπηάεη επζύο κεο ην λεξό.

Ξάθλνπ, ζηα κάηηα ηνπ αληηθξίδεη παλάξραηα ζηάκλα ζην βπζό!

Suddenly he saw a jug in the sea. He dived in the water and took the jug.

Τελ παίξλεη αλάπνδα αγθαιηά

θαη ηε ρηππάεη δπλαηά.

He put it in the boat and he sailed

at the beach. He started emptying

the jug.

Γίγαληαο βγαίλεη ηξνκεξόο,

πεηλαζκέλνο, λεζηηθόο!

Then a giant came out of the

jug.

- Παλαγηά κνπ, ηη ’ζαη ζπ, πώο ρώξεζεο εθεί;

- Ο κεδέο κνπ είζαη ‘ζπ, ζα ζε θάσ ζηε ζηηγκή!

Δπν πξνζπάζεηεο λα ηνλ πηάζεη ν γίγαληαο θάλεη ζην

ιεπηό, κα απνηπγράλνπλ θαη νη δπν θη απνκέλεη

λεζηηθόο.

- Σηάζνπ, ζηάζνπ, κε κε θαο, ηε δσή ζνπ κνπ ρξσζηάο!

The giant was very hungry and he wanted to

eat the fisherman. The fisherman begged the giant

not to eat him. He believed that it was not fair to eat

him since he had set him free from the jug.

Τπραία έλαο γατδαξάθνο πεξλάεη απ’ εθεί, άξξσζηνο πνιύ.

Ζεηάεη ν ςαξάο ακέζσο ηε γλώκε ηνπ λα πεη.

- Νένο ζαλ ήκνπλα εγώ, θνπβαινύζα βάξε έλα ζσξό,

κα ηώξα πνπ κεγάισζα, όινη κε παξάηεζαλ.

Δίθην δελ έρεη ζηε δσή, ηη δεηάο ηώξα θη εζύ;

Δπζηπρηζκέλνο ν ςαξάο, πνύ λα ζηξαθεί ην δίθην ηνπ λα

βξεη;

A donkey was passing and they asked its opinion.

Was it fair the giant to eat the fisherman?

The donkey said that when it was

young, it used to be treated well, since it could

carry a lot of things. But when it got old, it

couldn’t work and his boss forced it to leave the

stable. Therefore, there isn’t justice in this life.

Τξεηο πξνζπάζεηεο λα ηνλ πηάζεη

ν γίγαληαο θάλεη ζην ιεπηό,

κα απνηπγράλνπλ θαη νη ηξεηο θαη

κέλεη πάιη λεζηηθόο.

The giant started chasing the

fisherman in order to eat him.

Τπραία πεξλάεη απ’ εθεί έλαο ζθύινο ζηε ζησπή.

Ζεηάεη ν ςαξάο ακέζσο θη απηόο ηε γλώκε ηνπ λα πεη.

- Νένο ζαλ ήκνπλα εγώ, θύιαθαο ήκνπλ θνβεξόο,

κα ηώξα πνπ κεγάισζα απ’ ηηο θινηζηέο καξάδσζα!

Δίθην δελ έρεη ζηε δσή, ηη δεηάο ηώξα θη εζύ;

Δπζηπρηζκέλνο ν ςαξάο, πνύ λα ζηξαθεί ην δίθην

ηνπ λα βξεη;

A dog was passing by and the fisherman asked

it to tell them if it was fair the giant to eat him.

The old dog told them its story. When it was young

and strong it used to be a great guard in a farm with

sheep. Now it is old and cannot bark so loudly. So its

boss forced him to leave the farm. Therefore, there

isn’t justice in this life.

Τέζζεξηο πξνζπάζεηεο λα ηνλ πηάζεη

ν γίγαληαο θάλεη ζην ιεπηό,

κα πάιη... κέλεη λεζηηθόο.

The giant tried again to eat the

fisherman.

Τελ πξνζεπρή ηνπ θάλεη κ’ ειπίδα ζησπειά,

κηα ηειεπηαία ράξε ν ςαξάο δεηά,

ηελ αιεπνύ ζαλ βιέπεη λα πεξλά θακαξσηά.

Ζεηάεη, ινηπόλ, ακέζσο ηε γλώκε ηεο λα πεη.

- Θα ζνπ ζώζσ ηε δσή, θνηόπνπια αλ κνπ δίλεηο

απ’ ηε δηθή ζνπ ηελ απιή.

Then a fox passed by and whistled to the fisherman

that she would help him save

his life, if he provided her food for her whole life.

Τν ιόγν ηνπ δίλεη ν ςαξάο θαη ε αιεπνύ αξρηλά...

- Μεγάινο γίγαληαο εζύ, πώο ρώξεζεο ζ’ έλα ζηακλί;

- Μάγηα έθαλα εγώ ζε μσηηθό λα κεηακνξθσζώ.

Σηε ζηάκλα κπήθα λα δείμσ πσο ρσξώ

θη ν μάδειθνο απ’ ηε δήιηα ηνπ κ’ έξημε ζην λεξό.

The clever fox asked the giant to tell the story of his

life. The giant said that, when he was young, he used

to play with his cousin. One day, they were discussing

whether they could become spirits and go into the jug.

The giant was the first who had succeeded it, but when

he went into the jug his cousin threw the jug into the sea.

Η αιεπνύ ε πνλεξή

ηάρα δελ πίζηεςε πνιύ,

ζηα κάηηα ηεο κπξνζηά

ζέιεη λα ην δεη!

Ο γίγαληαο κπαίλεη ζην

ζηακλί, γέιηα πνπ έξημαλ

εθεί…

The clever fox told him

that she couldn’t believe

that he was able to

become a spirit and get

into a small jug. The

silly giant became a

spirit again and got into

the jug.

… θη απηή ε πνλεξή ηνλ ξίρλεηπάιη ζηελ παιηά ηνπ θπιαθή!

- Σ’ επραξηζηώ, θπξά Μαξηώ

θη απηό πνπ είπα δελ μερλώ,

απνθξίζεθε ν ςαξάο

θη έθπγε κεκηάο.

The fisherman quickly threw the

jug into the sea. The giant was in

prison again…

The fisherman thanked the fox and

went away.

Σαλ πέξαζε πνιύο θαηξόο, πάεη ε αιεπνύ καο ζηνλ ςαξά

θαη θνηόπνπια δεηά, όπσο ηεο είπε κηα θνξά.

Some years after, the fox was very hungry. She went to the fisherman and asked some chickens from him.

Μα απηόο ην ρξένο ηνπ μερλά θη αξρίδεη λα ηελ θπλεγά...

But he got so angry and tried to kill her, forgetting his promise.

Ο κύζνο καο εδώ ηειεηώλεη,

κα ε αιήζεηα αξρηλά...

Όηαλ ν εγσηζκόο θνπληώλεη,

ην δίθην δε ληθά.

The fox left quickly,

but she was certain that

there is no justice

in this life.
