00:00Once there lived an ant and a cricket in a field.
00:09The ant lived in a hole, and the cricket lived near its hole.
00:14They were friends.
00:16The ant was very hardworking, but the cricket was very lazy.
00:22In the months of summer, the ant worked day and night to store food for winter.
00:29But the cricket did not work at all.
00:32He did not store any food for winter.
00:35He just sang and made merry.
00:38Then winter came.
00:41The ground was covered with snow.
00:46There was no food to eat.
00:48The ant had enough grains to eat for the whole winter.
00:52But the cricket had nothing to eat.
00:56He went to the ant to borrow some grains.
01:00My dear friend, please help me.
01:03I am starving.
01:05I don't have any food with me, and there is no food anywhere, he pleaded.
01:11The ant asked him, What have you been doing in summer?
01:15Didn't you store any food?
01:19The cricket replied sadly, Oh no, I did not collect any food.
01:24I just sang and made merry.
01:27The ant retorted, If you sang the summer away, you should dance away the winter.
01:34Moral, no pains, no gains.
