Wasting your precious
And valuable time,
You will lose a lot.
OH! ant I am starving,
I am hungry,
Could you give me
some food?
Yes, you can have it to-day.
But I have to feed my family
with what I have in store.
Make arrangements for
Hereafter.
I want to be lazy,
I want to enjoy my life
In singing and dancing.
I go from place to place,
I am the grasshopper.
Where shall I go now
for food and shelter?
Today the ant gave me,
Who will give me
tomorrow?
The ant has saved
food for winter,
I did nothing.
I have to suffer.
OH! what a fate!
