Answer:
All that glitters is not gold
Once a red deer went to a river to quench his thirst. As he was drinking, he saw his reflection in the clear water. He looked at his horns and thought how beautiful they are. Then he saw his legs. He felt very sad on seeing his thin ugly legs.
Suddenly the red deer heard the howls of hounds. He started running to save his life. He was running so fast that the hounds were left far behind. But as he was running through the forest, his horns were caught in the bush. He tried to set himself free but could not. The hungry hounds reached him and killed him.
The thin ugly legs helped the red deer to escape. But his beautiful horns got entangled in the bush leading to his death.
The proverb "all that glitters is not gold" expresses the wisdom that the attractive external appearance of something or someone is not a reliable indication of its true nature. Appearance can be greatly misleading and we must be careful not trust everything we see. To assume something as precious or valuable on the basis of mere appearance is unwise.
