આ વાર્તા સાંભળો, વાંચો અને ભજનો :

The Sparrow’s swing

The tower clock in the Juna Bazaar is s very old.
All the three hands of the clock quarrelled one day.
The thin hand shouted : “I am very fast.”
The long hand screamed : “But I am not very slow.”
The short hand nodded.
The thin hand said : “You all run after me.”
The long hand said : “No, I have my own speed.”
The short hand said nothing.
The thin hand tic-talked: “I am useful in science and sports.”
The long hand tic-talked: “I am important for all the people.”
Now, the short hand was angry, “Stop your noise.” He kicked hard. The thin and the long hands fell down. Kanjibhai noticed this first. He looked to set his wrist watch. He informed the municipality. The municipality replaced it with a digital clock. But then, a sparrow went to the chief officer. It complained, “Where is my swing? Where shall I sit, sing and play ?”

(ધ સ્પેરોઝ વિંગ) ચકલીનો હીંચકો

(ધ ટાવર ક્લૉક ઇન ધ જૂના બઝાર ઇઝ વેરિ ઓલ્ડ. ઑલ ધ શ્રી પૅડ્ઝ ઑવ ધ ક્લૉક ક્વૉરલ્ડ વન ડે.) જૂના બજારનું ટાવર ઘડિયાળ ઘણું જૂનું છે. એક દિવસ ઘડિયાળના ત્રણેય કાંટા ઝઘડ્યા. (ધ થિન હેન્ડ શાઉટિડ: “આઈ ઍમ વેરિ ફાસ્ટ.”) પાતળો કાંટો બોલ્યો : “હું ખૂબ ઝડપી છું.” (ધ લૉન્ગ ઍન્ડ સ્કીમ્સ: “બટ આઈ ઍમ નૉટ વેરિ સ્લો.”), લાંબો કાંટો બોલ્યો : “પણ હું બહુ ધીમો નથી.” (ધ શૉર્ટ હેન્ડ નૉડિડ.)

નાના કાંટાએ (સંમતિમાં) માથું ધુણાવ્યું. (ધ થિન ઍન્ડ સેડ: “યૂ ઑલ રન આફ્ટર મી.”) પાતળા કાંટાએ કહ્યું: “તમે બધા મારી પાછળ દોડો છો.” (ધ લૉન્ગ ઍન્ડ સેડ: “નો, આઈ હેવ માઇ ઓન સ્પીડ.”’) લાંબા કાંટાએ કહ્યું : “ના, મારે મારી પોતાની ગતિ છે.”

હવે, નાનો કાંટો ગુસ્સે થયો, “તમારો ઘોંઘાટ બંધ કરો.” તેણે જોરથી લાત મારી. પાતળો અને લાંબો કાંટો પડી ગયા. પહેલું ધ્યાન કાનજીભાઈનું ગયું. તેમણે તેમની કાંડા ઘડિયાળનો સમય મેળવવા ઊંચે જોયું. તેમણે મહાનગરપાલિકાને જાણ કરી. મહાનગરપાલિકાએ તેની જગ્યાએ ડિજિટલ ઘડિયાળ મૂકી. પરંતુ પછી, એક ચકલી વડા અધિકારી પાસે ગઈ. તેણે ફરિયાદ કરી, “મારો હીંચકો ક્યાં છે? હું ક્યાં બેસીશ, ગાઇશ અને રમીશ?”

A Different Experience 

I had a bad experience. It happened last week. There was a marriage ceremony in neighbourhood. There was a lot of noise. I could not sleep properly. So, I woke up at half past eight. I got up quickly and took a shower in a hurry. I had no time to take a cup of tea.

It was ten to nine. I drove my bike fast. I hoped to reach on time. I accelerated the bike. The traffic light was red. I failed to stop my bike at the traffic signal. I continued to drive fast. A policeman stopped me at the next circle. “Oh shit!” I whispered.

The policeman approached me, “Good Morning. You ran the red light. Can I see your driving licence and papers, please ?” I got off my bike. I tapped my back pocket. I searched in my bag. I peeped into my side case.

No sign of my wallet. “Excuse me officer, I left my wallet at home. I am in a V ‘ hurry,” I said. Of course, the policeman did not accept my excuse. He told me, “Keep your bike here. Go home and come with the licence.” Luckily, I had some coins in my bag.

I caught a public transport and went back home. At half past nine, I returned to the officer. I showed him my driving licence and papers. I paid the fine and collected my bike. When I kicked my bike again, the time was a quarter to ten. Late, very late. I knew, my boss will be very angry.

So, I drove the rest of the road like hell. When I arrived at my office, I was surprised. The gate of the office was closed, The main door was also closed. Then I realised the mistake. I checked the day on my cell phone. It was Sunday.
