In a tall tree in a jungle lived a little black bird. Every morning, it
sang sweetly. Down on the ground fell a few grains of gold from its beak as it sang.
One morning a fowler saw the grains of gold dropping down from its beak. He said to himself, "What good luck! I must catch this bird and carry it home. Everyday it will give me grains of gold and soon I will be a very rich man."
The fowler then spread a net on the ground and sprinkled
some grains of rice there. The black bird saw the grains of rice
and swooped down into the net. The fowler caught the bird
and brought it home..
From that day on, the fowler got a few grains of gold everyday and soon he became a very rich man. Then he thought that he must get some fame and honour. So, he made a beautiful cage of gold and put the bird in it. Then he went to see the king in the palace and gave the cage of gold and the bird to the King and said, "Your majesty, this bird will sing sweet songs in your palace and give you grains of gold everyday". The King was very pleased with this exceptional gift and so, he gave the fowler a seat of honour in the Royal Court. Soon, the King also had a lot a lot of gold. He gave away the
cage of gold and the bird to his very beautiful but vain wife, the Queen. The Queen was not impressed with the black bird in the golden cage for she was not told of its gold producing talent. She thought that such a beautiful cage was a waste on such an ordinary looking bird. So, she set the bird free and gave the golden cage to the royal goldsmith. Said the Queen to the goldsmith, "Make for the most beautiful ornaments from this cage of gold."
The little black bird flew away back into the jungle. Every morning it sang, "The Song of Four Fools". It sang, "I flew into the fowler's net. I was the first fool. The fowler gave me to the King. The fowler was the second fool. The King gave me to the Queen. The King was the third fool. The Queen did not appreciate me and set me free. The Queen was the fourth fool."
