Little Ankle Bone Story

Once upon a time, a little kid lost both of his parents. He moved in with his aunt, who assigned him the task of tending sheep. The little man spent the entire day looking at his flock while wandering barefoot around the open plain and playing his tiny shepherd's pipe from morning till night.

However, a large wolf once arrived and growled, "Little boy! " as he glared hungrily at the little shepherd and his plump sheep. Should I eat your sheep or you? The young child then kindly said, "I don't know, Mr. Wolf; I must ask my Auntie,"

In the evening, after bringing the herd home, he went to his aunt and said, "Auntie dear, a great huge wolf asked me to-day if he should eat me, or your sheep. So I puffed away on my little pipe all day." What should it be?

Which one should it be, his aunt sternly said as she turned to face the fat flock and the tiny shepherd.

'Of course, you are!'

The young shepherd drove his sheep into the wide, open plain the following morning, where he happily puffed into his shepherd's pipe until the enormous, bad wolf showed up. Then he put his pipe down and approached the ferocious animal, saying, "Oh, if you please, Mr. Wolf, I asked my Auntie, and she says you are to eat me."

Wolf

As vicious as wolves are accustomed to being, the wolf could not help feeling a small bit sorry for the little shepherd playing his pipe so beautifully. As a result, he said politely, "Could I do anything for you, little guy, after I've eaten you?"

“Thank you,” the little shepherd said. I would really appreciate it if you would, when you have selected the bones, put my ankle bone on a string and hang it on the tree that weeps over the pond over there.

The wolf devoured the young shepherd, chose his bones, and then tied his ankle bone on a tree limb so it might swing and dance in the sunlight.

Three criminals who had recently plundered a palace happened to be passing by one day and sat down under the tree to divide the loot. A jackal howled just as they had organised all of the golden plates, priceless gems, and expensive items into three piles. You must be aware that thieves always take the jackal's cry as a note of warning, so when Little Anklebone's thread broke and he fell plump on the head of the chief robber at the exact same moment, the man believed someone had thrown a pebble at him and shouted, "Run! run!—we are discovered!" He bolted away as hard as he could, followed by his companions, leaving all the treasure behind them.

Wolf Eating Bones

Little Anklebone said to himself, "Now I shall enjoy a lovely life!"

He then collected the loot, sat beneath the tree that hung over the pond, and began to play so sweetly on a brand-new shepherd's pipe that all the woodland animals, avian birds, and pond fish flocked to hear him. After placing marble watering cans around the pond for the animals to use, Little Anklebone watched as the dogs, tigresses, and she-wolves gathered around him in the evening to be milked. Once he had had his fill, he then poured the remaining milk into the pond, turning it into a pond of milk. Little Ankle Bone played his shepherd's pipe while relaxing by the milky pond.

Now, one day, an elderly woman walking by with her water jug heard the melodic notes of Little Anklebone's pipe. She followed the sound and eventually arrived at the milk pond, where she observed the animals, birds, and fishes enjoying the music. She was in awe, especially when Little Ankle Bone yelled, "Fill your jar, mommy," from his perch under the tree. Everyone who enters drinks!

Kids Drinking Milk

The elderly woman then rejoiced at her good fortune and filled her jar with milk before continuing on her trip. However, as she travelled, she ran upon the King of that nation, who had been out hunting and became lost in the open plain.

When he saw the jar, he exclaimed, "Give me a sip of water, kind mother; I am practically dying with thirst!"

Kid and Elderly Women

The elderly woman answered, "It is milk, my son; I got it over there from a milken pond." She then described the wonders to the King, inspiring him to decide to take a closer look. And he said, "I must have the small piper, if I die for it!" as soon as he saw the milky pond, where all the animals, birds, and fish were gathering as Little Ankle Bone played his shepherd's pipe in an incredibly charming manner.

Little Ankle Bone immediately took off at a sprint after hearing these words, followed by the King. Never before or after has there been such a chase because Little Ankle Bone hid among the heaviest briars and thorns, and the King was so anxious to capture the little piper that he did not care if he was hurt. The King finally prevailed, but as soon as he grabbed Tiny Ankle Bone, the sky above started to storm and light up dreadfully. Numerous does also started to howl from below, and louder than all of them was the voice of the little piper himself singing these words—

"Oh, clouds!" Why do you flare and storm?

Ankle Bone is compelled to wander.

O does! Why await the attention of the milker?

Ankle Bone must leave his house, poor guy.

And he sang with such piercing sweetness that the King was moved to tears, especially when he realised it was just a bone after all. He then let it go once more, and the tiny piper returned to his spot beneath the pond's tree. There, he sits quietly and plays his shepherd's pipe while the forest's animals, birds, and fish congregate to listen to his music. Additionally, sometimes, individuals who are aimlessly roaming around the pathless plain would hear the pipe and exclaim, "That's Little Ankle Bone, who was devoured by a wolf centuries ago!"
