The Ingenious eagle
On a hot day an eagle very thirsty and wanted a drink. The river is very remote and very tiring if you fly there for a drink. He did not see the pool water anywhere. He flew round and round. Finally he saw a pitcher outside the home. Eagle flew down into the jug. There was little water in the bottom of pitcher. Eagles put his head into the pitcher, but he did not reach the water. He climbed to the top pitcher. He put his head into the jug again but its beak could not reach the water.
Then he looked reasonable.
Eagle flying high and then down toward the pitcher to break it with his beak but very strong pitcher. He can not break it. Eagles came out flying towards the pitcher and then he rammed his wings. He tried to solve it, so the juices will come out over the floor. But the pitcher was very strong. Eagle was very tired having to fly further. He thought he would die of thirst.
Eagle sat in the nest. He constantly thinks He does not want to die of thirst. He saw a lot of small stones on the ground. He got the idea. He took the stone and put it into a pitcher. He continued to enter and insert. Water rises higher every time the stone fell into the pitcher. Pitcher was nearly filled with stones. The water had risen up to the surface. Insert clever eagle beak and he got the water. Proverb says that "If there's a will there's a way. "Eagles they have proved it.

Rajawali Yang Cerdik
Di Suatu hari yang panas seekor rajawali sangat haus dan ingin minum. Sungai amat jauh dan sangat melelahkan jika terbang ke sana untuk minum. Ia tidak melihat kolam air di mana pun. Ia terbang berputar-putar. Akhirnya ia melihat sebuah buyung di luar rumah. Rajawali terbang turun ke buyung itu. Di sana ada sedikit air di dasar buyung. Rajawali memasukkan kepalanya ke dalam buyung tetapi ia tidak menggapai air itu. Ia memanjat ke atas buyung. Ia memasukkan lagi kepalanya ke dalam buyung tetapi paruhnya tidak bisa mencapai air itu.
Kemudian ia mencari akal.
Rajawali itu terbang tinggi dan kemudian turun menuju ke buyung untuk memecahkannya dengan paruhnya tetapi buyung itu amat kuat. Ia tidak dapat memecahkannya. Rajawali itu keluar terbang kearah buyung kemudian ia menabrakkan sayapnya. Ia mencoba memecahkannya, agar airnya akan keluar membasahi lantai. Tetapi buyung itu amat kuat. Rajawali itu amat letih bila harus terbang lebih jauh lagi. Ia berpikir ia akan mati kehausan.
Rajawali itu duduk termenung di sarangnya. Ia berpikir terus menerus Ia tidak mau mati karena kehausan. Ia melihat banyak batu-batu kecil di tanah. Ia mendapatkan ide. Ia mengambil batu itu dan memasukkannya ke dalam buyung. Ia memasukkan dan memasukkan terus. Air itu naik lebih tinggi setiap kali batu jatuh ke dalam buyung. Buyung itu hampir penuh dengan batu. Air telah naik sampai ke permukaan. Rajawali yang pintar itu memasukkan paruhnya dan ia mendapatkan air. Pepatah mengatakan bahwa “ Jika ada kemauan pasti ada jalan. “ Rajawali itu telah membuktikannya.
