Byla jednou jedna slepička a jeden kohoutek. Once upon a time, there was a little hen and a little rooster. Žili spolu u malého domu na kraji vesnice. They lived together in a small house on the edge of a village. Jedno ráno našel kohoutek na zemi zrníčko. One morning, the little rooster found a grain on the ground. Zobnul do něj, ale zrníčko mu uvízlo v krku. He pecked at it, but the grain got stuck in his throat. Kohoutek nemohl mluvit ani dýchat. The little rooster could not speak or breathe. Slepička dostala velký strach. The hen was very frightened.
Běžela ke studánce, protože chtěla vodu. She ran to the spring because she wanted some water. „Studánko, dej mi trochu vody pro kohoutka,“ prosila. “Spring, give me some water for the rooster,” she begged. „Dám ti vodu, ale nejdřív mi přines list z lípy,“ řekla studánka. “I will give you water, but first bring me a leaf from the linden tree,” said the spring. Slepička běžela k vysoké lípě. The hen ran to a tall linden tree. „Lípo, dej mi jeden list pro studánku,“ prosila. “Linden tree, give me one leaf for the spring,” she begged.
„Dám ti list, ale nejdřív mi přines barevnou stužku od švadleny,“ řekla lípa. “I will give you a leaf, but first bring me a colorful ribbon from the seamstress,” said the linden tree. Slepička běžela ke švadleně. The hen ran to the seamstress. „Švadleno, dej mi stužku pro lípu,“ prosila. “Seamstress, give me a ribbon for the linden tree,” she begged. „Dám ti stužku, ale nejdřív mi přines jehlu od ševce,“ řekla švadlena. “I will give you a ribbon, but first bring me a needle from the shoemaker,” said the seamstress. Slepička běžela k ševci. The hen ran to the shoemaker.
„Ševče, dej mi jehlu pro švadlenu,“ prosila. “Shoemaker, give me a needle for the seamstress,” she begged. „Dám ti jehlu, ale nejdřív mi přines kladívko od kováře,“ řekl švec. “I will give you a needle, but first bring me a little hammer from the blacksmith,” said the shoemaker. Slepička běžela ke kováři. The hen ran to the blacksmith. „Kováři, dej mi kladívko pro ševce,“ prosila. “Blacksmith, give me a little hammer for the shoemaker,” she begged. „Dám ti kladívko, ale nejdřív mi přines chleba od pekaře,“ řekl kovář. “I will give you a little hammer, but first bring me some bread from the baker,” said the blacksmith.
Slepička běžela k pekaři. The hen ran to the baker. „Pekaři, dej mi chleba pro kováře,“ prosila. “Baker, give me some bread for the blacksmith,” she begged. „Dám ti chleba, ale nejdřív mi přines mouku od mlynáře,“ řekl pekař. “I will give you bread, but first bring me some flour from the miller,” said the baker. Slepička běžela k mlynáři. The hen ran to the miller. „Mlynáři, dej mi mouku pro pekaře,“ prosila. “Miller, give me some flour for the baker,” she begged.
„Dám ti mouku, ale nejdřív mi přines zrní od sedláka,“ řekl mlynář. “I will give you flour, but first bring me some grain from the farmer,” said the miller. Slepička běžela k sedlákovi. The hen ran to the farmer. „Sedláku, dej mi trochu zrní pro mlynáře,“ prosila. “Farmer, give me some grain for the miller,” she begged. „Dám ti zrní, ale nejdřív mi pomoz naplnit tento pytel,“ řekl sedlák. “I will give you grain, but first help me fill this sack,” said the farmer. Slepička rychle naplnila pytel zrním. The hen quickly filled the sack with grain.
Sedlák jí dal zrní a slepička běžela zpátky k mlynáři. The farmer gave her the grain, and the hen ran back to the miller. Mlynář jí dal mouku a pekař jí dal chleba. The miller gave her flour, and the baker gave her bread. Kovář dostal chleba a dal slepičce kladívko. The blacksmith received the bread and gave the little hammer to the hen. Švec dostal kladívko a dal jí jehlu. The shoemaker received the little hammer and gave her the needle. Švadlena dostala jehlu a dala jí barevnou stužku. The seamstress received the needle and gave her the colorful ribbon.
Lípa dostala stužku a dala slepičce krásný list. The linden tree received the ribbon and gave the hen a beautiful leaf. Studánka dostala list a dala slepičce trochu vody. The spring received the leaf and gave the hen some water. Slepička běžela domů, protože kohoutek stále čekal. The hen ran home because the little rooster was still waiting. Dala mu vodu do zobáku. She poured the water into his beak. Zrníčko mu sklouzlo do bříška a kohoutek se uzdravil. The grain slipped into his belly, and the little rooster recovered.
„Děkuji ti, slepičko,“ řekl kohoutek. “Thank you, little hen,” said the little rooster. „Příště budu jíst pomalu,“ slíbil. “Next time I will eat slowly,” he promised. Slepička se usmála a oba šli domů. The hen smiled, and the two of them went home. Od té doby si kohoutek dával na zrníčka velký pozor. From then on, the little rooster was very careful with grains.
