Once upon the time, there was a bird that used to cry and sing every morning by telling her mother " I'm hungry! I'm hungry! If you love me give me food to eat and if you don't love me, allow me to die for hungry. The mother always ignore her voice because she didn't want anything that would be disturbing her peace. One day when she was cry and singing with melodic voice which her mother always ignore everyday, come an old woman who heard her crying through singing and took her to her own house. When the mother came back and began to look for her but couldn't find her. She searched for her for complete five days before she could find her in one old woman's house who tended her than her mother. The little bird told her mother that why I will not follow you again to your house is because you ignored my voice even when I was hungry but I have found someone who recognized my voice and I'm ready to stay with her forever. The mother went back home sorrowfully because there's nothing she can do to convince her again. The mother lived lonely and died helplessly.
