00:00
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a small but dense forest.
00:08
The trees whispered to one another, and the flowers pollinated each other,
00:13
and all the plants enjoyed being together as a forest.
00:18
One day, one of the beautiful days of spring,
00:23
between a cactus and a sunflower, a glowing seed started to grow.
00:29
Oh, this growing flower was a gorgeous rose with crimson petals.
00:36
Hello, my name is Rosie.
00:40
I'm Cactus, nice to meet you.
00:44
Your petals are so beautiful, Rosie.
00:48
I wish I had petals like yours.
00:52
Thanks, but not everyone can be smart and beautiful and fragrant, right?
00:59
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:02
Rosie's haughty response surprised everyone.
01:06
She was such an arrogant flower, even though she had just bloomed.
01:11
I am obviously the most beautiful flower here.
01:15
Look at my shiny petals.
01:17
Ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:18
There are lots of beautiful plants here, Rosie.
01:21
You are just one of them.
01:23
What? How dare you compare me with the prickly cactus?
01:28
I am much more beautiful than he.
01:32
Cactus was very upset about what he heard, and he could not say anything.
01:39
It's not nice what you said to the cactus, Rosie.
01:43
And you have thorns, too.
01:47
Actually, it's not nice to compare a cactus with a beautiful rose like me.
01:53
What would you know about beauty? You don't even bloom.
01:57
Neither the cactus nor the sunflower or the trees could get used to Rosie's attitude
02:05
because she was a flower that constantly praised herself.
02:10
Days passed, and summer finally came.
02:14
The sunflower was so happy.
02:17
With her bright yellow face, she followed the sun's rays all day long.
02:23
Cactus, on the other hand, drank the water he had stored throughout the winter
02:28
and kept himself vigorous and healthy all summer long.
02:33
Even some tiny birds visited the cactus to drink water.
02:36
Other plants were not able to store water like cactus for this hot weather.
02:41
And Rosie even began to wilt because of thirst.
02:47
Will it ever rain here?
02:51
Winter has to come for it to rain, Rosie.
02:54
But I am about to wither from this thirst.
02:59
All my beauty is gone.
03:02
You can ask cactus for help if you want.
03:06
Rosie saw that the cactus was happy to help other flowers,
03:10
but she was too proud to speak up because she always said bad words to him.
03:16
However, when another petal withered and fell from her head,
03:20
she put her pride aside and was willing to be embarrassed.
03:24
She asked the cactus for help.
03:26
Hey, cactus, I'm sorry for the cruel words I said to you and Pine Tree.
03:32
Rosie, you are both beautiful and very useful plants for this forest.
03:37
Can you help me too?
03:40
Cactus saw that Rosie was choosing to be humble and had put her arrogance aside.
03:46
So he shared his water with her.
03:48
She could feel life spring up inside her once again
03:51
and her bright petals spread out in the rays of the sun.
03:56
From that day on, Rosie learned not to judge her friends by their looks
04:03
because no matter how different we look from each other,
04:07
each one of us is designed with beauty and helpfulness.
04:17
On a little farm lived a cute duck family.
04:21
Mummy duck was sitting on her eggs waiting for her new ducklings to hatch.
04:27
There were exactly seven eggs that were waiting to hatch.
04:33
One sunny morning, the eggs began to hatch.
04:39
Soon after, with great joy, the six little ducklings began to hatch.
04:46
The ducklings were trying to adapt to the new world.
04:51
They were quacking and walking around Mother Duck.
04:55
However, the largest egg of them all was still trying to hatch
04:59
and Mother Duck began to worry.
05:02
She thought that there might be something wrong.
05:04
She decided to wait a little while longer.
05:08
And at last, the seventh and the largest egg hatched.
05:13
With great confusion, the poor ducklings began to look around.
05:17
Little did he know his mother and siblings were a bit more confused than he was.
05:24
Because this duck, in particular, did not look like his siblings.
05:30
He was built much more broader and had grey and white feathers.
05:34
The other ducklings began to laugh at him.
05:39
What an ugly duckling you are.
05:41
You look nothing like us.
05:43
I don't get it.
05:44
How come you look nothing like your siblings?
05:47
Ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly, ugly.
05:52
Some time later, the ducklings all grew older.
06:01
But the ugly duckling was much bigger than the others,
06:05
even the colour of his feathers.
06:07
You grew up so fast.
06:09
How did you turn out to be so different?
06:13
Time was passing by and the ugly duckling was growing up to be a different and sad duck.
06:19
None of his siblings wanted to play with him.
06:22
We won't play with you because you're ugly.
06:27
All the other animals on the farm were making fun of him.
06:30
Grr, grr, ugly duckling, ugly duckling.
06:36
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, ugly duckling, ugly duckling.
06:40
Mother duck, on the other hand, was doing her best in protecting him.
06:45
My poor duckling, why are you so different than the others?
06:52
As the days passed, the poor, ugly duckling was feeling horrible.
06:58
All night long, he would silently cry and think to himself that no one would ever want him.
07:03
Why am I so ugly?
07:11
Why couldn't I turn out to be like my siblings?
07:18
One day, some hunters approached the lake near where they lived.
07:24
The hunters began to hunt the ducks they had seen.
07:34
Whilst Mother Duck was looking for food for the ducklings, she was caught by the hunters.
07:42
The poor duckling, not knowing what had been happening, he waited till morning for his mother to return.
07:48
Poor duckling, didn't know what to do.
07:59
First, he went next to the dog, and the dog told him to go.
08:04
Go away.
08:05
No one should see me talking to an ugly duck like you.
08:10
A while later, he went next to the chicken, but the chicken also made fun of him.
08:15
Even I'm better looking than you.
08:20
Ugly duckling was very sad.
08:23
No one wants me here.
08:24
If my mother isn't coming back, there's absolutely no reason for me to stay on this farm.
08:38
That morning, the ugly duckling left the farm.
08:42
He swam to the other side of the lake.
08:45
He asked the same question to all the animals he bumped into along the way.
08:50
Do you know any duck that looks like me?
08:54
Do you know any ducks that look like me?
08:58
Do you know any ducks that look like me?
09:01
He received the same answer from all of them.
09:04
They had never seen such ugly duck before.
09:08
Poor duckling began his journey and reached another lake once he was there.
09:13
He asked the same question to the geese.
09:16
You mustn't stay here like this.
09:18
There are hunters around.
09:20
Quickly get away from here.
09:22
Go on.
09:23
Now go.
09:24
The ugly duckling began to move along.
09:27
Soon after another lake appeared, this time he was all alone.
09:35
There was no one to be seen.
09:39
Well then, if nobody wants me, I will hide here forever.
09:44
Even though he was all alone, he was very happy.
09:55
One day, he saw a horde of white long-necked birds migrating to the south.
10:05
He looked at them with admiration.
10:08
How beautiful they are.
10:11
I wish I could be like them.
10:14
Winter had come, and snow had began to fall.
10:19
The ugly duckling fell in love with the sight of his first ever snow.
10:24
Playing around, he was covered in white snow.
10:28
Due to the heavy snow, the ugly duckling was finding it hard to find food.
10:35
So off he went walking around, trying to find food.
10:39
He was cold and tired.
10:42
Meanwhile, he came across a farmer.
10:47
The farmer felt sorry for him and gave his jacket.
10:52
You poor thing, how cold you are.
10:55
I will take you home and look after you until you grow.
10:59
The farmer did as he said and took good care of him.
11:10
When spring had arrived, the ugly duckling had grown.
11:14
So that he would have free space to move around, the farmer decided to leave him in a life, all alone once again.
11:23
After some time had passed, the ugly duckling looked at his reflection in the water.
11:28
But he was amazed at what he saw.
11:31
At first, he couldn't recognise himself.
11:34
He thought there was someone else behind him.
11:37
So he flipped his wings and noticed that his reflection was doing the same thing.
11:43
He stretched out his neck and his reflection continued to copy his movements.
11:51
Right then, he knew that this amazing bird was no one other than himself.
11:56
Oh, how much I've changed.
11:58
I look like the birds in the sky.
12:00
I must return back home and show myself at once.
12:05
And off he went.
12:07
While he was swimming in the lake, he came across a wedge of swans.
12:14
Because he was one of them now, they took him along.
12:19
Ugly duckling was travelling in joy with the swans.
12:26
A boy at the lakeshore yelled out to his friends when he saw the swans.
12:31
Hey, look at the young one.
12:34
All the way back.
12:35
Must be the most beautiful swan I've seen.
12:42
Yes, from the beginning, he indeed was a swan.
12:48
He was just an unfortunate egg which got mixed up in between the ducks.
13:00
But now, he was with his real family.
13:11
And ahead of him was a happy lion.
13:14
In a forest lived a rabbit.
13:21
Wandering all day long, all he did was jump up and admire himself.
13:26
He loved talking about how much faster he was than the other animals.
13:29
I'm the fastest animal in the forest.
13:33
Would anyone like to race with me?
13:37
He sure did run fast with his very big feet.
13:41
The other animals hated the way he would show off in saying that they never ever won a race.
13:48
Yes, I win again.
13:53
Why?
13:54
Because I'm fast.
13:57
Everywhere he went, he would say,
13:59
I'm so fast, no one could ever pass me.
14:02
His words had begun to disturb all the other animals in the forest.
14:07
Okay, he might be the fastest, but the fact that he says he shows off about it, it's not nice.
14:13
Someone should teach my lesson to smarten up.
14:16
All that was said amongst all the animals in the forest managed to go to the turtle.
14:22
The turtle walked very slow.
14:25
It would take him a day to reach the distance the rabbit could make in a minute.
14:30
The turtle wished he would come across the rabbit one of these days.
14:34
He went to the other animals and told them that he would like to race with the rabbit.
14:40
You want to race him?
14:42
Not even the fastest animals have won against the rabbit.
14:46
How can you?
14:48
You leave that part up to me.
14:53
The turtle went next to the rabbit.
14:57
Good day, Mr. Rabbit.
15:00
I have been searching for you.
15:03
Curiously, the rabbit asked.
15:06
And where might you be looking for me?
15:09
I hear that you are the fastest animal in the forest.
15:15
Well, actually, that's what you think.
15:19
But to be sure, I would like to race with you.
15:24
Let's see who is faster.
15:27
As soon as the turtle had finished what he had to say, the rabbit began to laugh so hard
15:33
that all the other animals in the forest heard you.
15:36
Ha ha ha ha.
15:39
You?
15:40
With me?
15:41
Ha ha ha.
15:42
A race?
15:44
Are you joking me?
15:46
It's impossible for you to pass me.
15:48
By the time you take a step, I would finish the race.
15:51
Well, unless we race, we will never know, will we?
15:55
Okay, be ready then.
15:57
Tomorrow morning we race.
15:59
As the turtle began walking away, the rabbit continued on laughing.
16:05
Ha ha ha ha.
16:07
Ha ha ha ha.
16:09
The following morning, the animals arrived at the race course.
16:13
They noticed the turtle waiting at the starting line, all ready to go.
16:19
Very sure of himself, the turtle was smiling.
16:24
Please tell me how you're going to beat the rabbit.
16:28
If he really is so proud and a big show-off, as you all say he is,
16:35
then this race isn't going to be hard at all.
16:41
Soon after, with his very stuck-up attitude,
16:45
holding a carrot, the rabbit arrived at the race course.
16:50
Let's race and finish this.
16:52
I still haven't had breakfast.
16:55
Finishing their last preparations, they arrived at the starting point.
16:59
The first one, that arrives at the red line at the end of the forest, waits.
17:07
With the mark of the mole, the race started.
17:10
Just like an arrow, the rabbit flew by.
17:13
The turtle, on the other hand, began to walk slowly.
17:20
Whoa!
17:21
The rabbit was nowhere to be seen.
17:23
The animals watching the race, thought that the turtle was going to get beaten.
17:37
After running a while, the rabbit stopped and had a look behind him.
17:41
There was nothing to be seen.
17:46
By the looks of it, the turtle will finish the race tonight.
17:50
I'd better sit and finish my carrot.
17:52
The rabbit finished eating his carrot,
18:00
looked up the road,
18:01
and from afar, he saw the turtle coming.
18:07
With a cheeky grin,
18:09
he stood up and continued on running.
18:13
The rabbit had nearly reached the finishing point.
18:16
The rabbit had nearly reached the finishing point.
18:22
I'm a bit sleepy after breakfast.
18:26
I might sit under this tree and take a nap.
18:29
As confident as he was about winning the race,
18:34
the rabbit drifted off to sleep.
18:37
The turtle continued on walking very, very slowly,
18:41
but with great confidence.
18:49
At last, he arrived next to the rabbit.
18:52
He saw that the rabbit was in a deep sleep.
18:55
Without stopping, he continued on his way.
18:59
A while later,
19:06
the rabbit woke up.
19:09
When he looked and could not see the turtle,
19:13
The turtle is nowhere to be seen.
19:15
Maybe he doesn't want to race anymore.
19:17
I should finish my race now.
19:20
As the rabbit was slowly making his way
19:24
to the finishing point,
19:25
what does he see?
19:27
The turtle had passed him.
19:30
In fact, he was about to finish the race.
19:33
Using all the energy he had left over,
19:35
he tried to pass the turtle.
19:38
But the turtle had already finished the race.
19:42
Some of the animals waiting at the finish line
19:45
were extremely happy.
19:50
All the animals were throwing the turtle up in the air
19:52
with great excitement.
19:56
While the rabbit stood in the corner
19:58
with great sadness.
20:00
Turtle, the winner of the race,
20:03
walked towards the rabbit.
20:05
Mr. Rabbit,
20:07
the important thing is being consistent
20:10
about everything that you do.
20:14
To brag with nonsense
20:15
and love yourself is weakness.
20:18
I beat you
20:20
not because I was faster,
20:23
but I was wiser
20:24
and did what I did seriously.
20:29
You're right.
20:30
From now on,
20:30
I will stop bragging about
20:32
being the fastest amongst everyone.
20:34
I should return now.
20:36
My home is a long journey away.
20:39
The turtle smiled
20:41
and continued on his way.
20:43
The rabbit learned a good lesson
20:44
and noticed his mistake.
20:46
After that day on,
20:48
he never ever bragged about himself,
20:51
nor did he ever race again.
20:53
Bμ¬λ₯Ό singing.
