SWALLOW AND SPARROW

Swallow and sparrow became close friends. They started walking aroundin together. Other swallows said nothing at the beginning about thiscircumstance. However, the things changed when the swallow started

bringing the sparrow to its nest. Nest of the swallow was under theeaves of an empty wooden house and there were many nests of swallownext to it. Going there from and thereto made swallows disturbed.

Swallows held a meeting and they appointed a spokesman. Thisspokesman told about this circumstance with it in a suitable time andsaid it not to bring this sparrow to its nest.Although the swallow showed some obstinacy, it finally was obliged toobey by this requirement.One night the sparrow suddenly wakened while it was sleeping. Tree onwhich it built up its nest among its branches was swinging. It flied awayand had a look-see round the environment. Thereupon, it recognisedthat it was an earthquake.

Its close friend, the swallow, came to its mind. It arrived at its nest andit weakened its close friend. It said the swallow to weaken otherswallows and the wooden house may be fallen onto the ground. Theswallow fulfilled what it said. Once the last swallow flied away there, the

wooden house was fallen onto the ground. Later, swallows set up newnests under eaves of another house and they did make no rejection forthe sparrow to go from and to the nest of the swallow for the reasonthat they were owed their life to it.Written by: Serdar Yldrm

POOR AHMETAhmets mother and father were poor. They were living in a small housewith only one room. Since his fathers lungs were ill, he compulsorilyretired. Ahmet finished primary school in difficulty by selling pretzel outof school time. Later by the help of his neighbour he started to work in arestaurant to do the washing up. Ahmet had taken the first step torealize his dreams. He had met the wonderful meals which he formerlyused to see behind the restaurant windows. Now he had full threecourses a day. He had kept Uncle Veli, who was cooking in therestaurant, observing. He would learn cooking from him and he would bea cook himself, too but Ahmet would work not in somebody elsesrestaurant but in his own one.

Ahmet opened a restaurant in the city centre after he had done hismilitary service. Because his meals were very delicious, the restaurantwas full of customers. He was earning well. Sometimes poor people usedto come to the restaurant and eat free meal.

The waiters working in the restaurant and the customers couldnt findany sense of Ahmets going and leaving two plates of meals to an empty

table during lunch times. How would they know that they were Ahmetspresent to his mother and father, whom the poverty had finished yearsago? They also wouldnt be able to hear that while putting the plates onthe table Ahmet was murmuring you arent going stay hungry any morefrom now on mummy and daddy. Have your meals and get yourself veryfull.Written by: Serdar Yldrm

FABLE OF OLD WOMAN

There was an old woman

Continually shedding her tears

Splashing like a spring.

Home you designate is only a room

How can we live in there?

Always have soap in the mourning and evening

Troubles are waiting for their turn.

One day a man arrived at there

Gave greeting with the woman

I purchased this place

Make it emptied he said.

Woe to my aggrieved headMy tears never stopped shedding

Where can l go to

Have no stone already erected, too.

You are existing today, tomorrow you are absent

Have a habitation for yourself;

You assemble your bed

on the land over there

Heavens! Is it acceptable, my son,

To hit a kick to who fallen down?

Dont make, dont act,

Is it possible to stay in the street?

Day turned, tomorrow arrived

She moved from her room

Her friend in the night

Kelolan would not sell the chickens for a gold coin:Kelolan look, I have a treasure map. I am alone, and Ive already got old. Thats why I couldnt look

for the treasure. I used to work at Zenginolus mansion. Zenginolu gave me this map. Let me have

the two chickens, have the map, look for and find the treasure, and be happy all your life he said.

Kelolan believed the man, and agreed. Kelolan returned home in the late afternoon. His mother

shouted:

Oh my stupid son! Can two chickens be bartered for this piece of paper? You were meant to buy gas

and salt after selling the chickens. You have been cheated. Sit in the dark, eat the meals without any

salt and make up your mind. Kelolan didnt care, he was only thinking about the treasure. He

passed the night in difficulty and got up very early. Kelolan said:Mother, I am going to look for the treasure. I have prepared food for winter. Let there be no gas;

you will go to bed early in the evenings. Let there be salt; you will get it from the neighbour. If I find

the treasure, I will make you live like a sultan. He kissed his mothers hand. Seeing that Kelolan was

determined, his mother desperately changed her mind. She saw Kelolan off saying Goodbye,

Kelolan. I hope you find the treasure.

Kelolan crossed mountains and hills, looking for days until finally he found the well on the map. The

treasure was meant to be in this well. The stone he threw into the well made a sound like BANG.Kelolan understood that there was no water in the well. However, three people who had gone


20/32

down the well in his village and werent able to come out last year came to his mind. I have a rope,

which I brought with me from the village. He started worrying: What if I tie the rope to the edge of

the well and go down, but then die like them because of the poisonous smoke in the well? That will

be a bad state of affairs - first I need a helper who is manly, trustworthy and who is able to remove

the danger in the well. Nasreddin Hodja came to mind while thinking where it might be possible to

find somebody like this, and he said Ok, the Hodja will find a way to resolve this matter.After a long journey he eventually arrived in Akehir. There he asked to be shown Nasreddin Hodjas

house. He knocked on the door and Nasreddin Hodja opened it. He said You are most welcome, my

son. I am Nasreddin Hodja. Would you like something?My Hodja, I am called Kelolan in my village. I would likr your help for an important matter. I would

be very happy if you would be so kind as to listen to me. Hodja welcomed Kelolan into his house.

Kelolan told him how he had gotthe treasure map; he told him that he had said goodbye to his

mother and had left the village, had found the well on the map, he told himwhy he hadnt been able

to go down the well. He concluded his remarks by saying, If we find the treasure, we will share it

fiftyfifty, my Hodja. What do you say?Nasreddin Hodja replied, Since there is not enough current, this poisonous air gathers in the wells

which havent been used for a long time and into which poisonous air leaks from the layers of earth

around them. If someone goes down into these wells, they will poison and kill that person. As you

have told me, the depth of the well is nearly 9 or 10 metres. It is too tiring and troublesome to dig

and broaden the hole around the well, we cant accomplish that. If we try to find a helper, it will

spread from ear to ear, and the public will gather at the well. We must find another way Kelolan.

Stay with us for a couple of days as my guest, and I will think and find a suitable way.Nasreddin Hodja made plans during the following two days, and drew up drafts. He brought the

plans to the smith. He admonished him to give the equipment that he had; to make those he didnt

have according to the drawings. The equipment was ready in a week. He had bought a cart which

two donkeys pulled. He put the equipment, and necessities like food and drink in the car. He said

goodbye to his wife and mounted his donkey. Hodja with his donkey in the front, and Kelolan in the

cart at the back, set off. After a troublesome journey lasting for days, they reached the well in which

the treasure was. Hodja scrutinized the well. He took down the big bellows, which they had got the

smith to make, next to the well with Kelolan. They dangled one of the tips of a pipe, which was

nearly 10 centimetres wide, into the bottom of the well. They attached the other tip to the bellows.

They started to pump the bellows. The still and poisonous air - which had accumulated for years -

started to scatter, rise slowly and get out of the well from the effect of the fresh and pressurized air.

The rate of poisonous air in the well lessened each time the bellows pumped air. This process was

continued the following day, too. On the third day they came to the conclusion that the well had

been cleaned. Just to make sure, Nasreddin Hodja put a cat, which he had brought in the cart, into a

sack. After tying up the sack with a rope, he lowered it into the bottom of the well. He saw that the

cat was alive and kicking after pulling it back two hours later.

Tying the rope around his waist, Kelolan had gone down the well. He took out the stone mentioned

on the map. After digging the earth under the stone, he found the chest. He tied up the chest with


21/32

the other rope near him and called out to Hodja to pull him. When Kelolan had come out of the

well, he pulled up the chest with Hodja. When they broke its lock and opened the chest, to their

surprise they saw it was full of bright and shiny gold! They felt very happy. They shared the gold

immediately. The next day, Nasreddin Hodja set off to Akehir on his donkey, and Kelolan set off to

his village in the cart.

Kelolan got a legendary mansion built in his village. He hired maids and manservants. He bought

fields, vineyards, gardens. He started to live like a sultan with his mother. The Sultan heard about

Kelolans extraordinary wealth. When he was out hunting one day, he stopped by Kelolans

mansion. Kelolan showed respect for the Sultan, and treated him in the best way. The Sultan, who

was very pleased with this close interest, invited Kelolan to his palace for the festival, which was

going to be celebrated the following month.

Kelolan went to the palace by coach and with manservants on the festival day. He met the Sultans

extremely beautiful daughter, Violet, and fell in love. Violet loved Kelolan at first sight and didnt

want him to leave. After the festival entertainments had finished, Kelolan returned to his mansion.

He told his mother that he had fallen in love with Sultan Violet at first sight and wouldntbe able to

live without her. They thought it over carefully and they decided to ask the Sultans consent to marry

Violet. Later he went with his mother to ask the Sultan if he could marry his daughter. The Sultan

accepted Violets marrying Kelolan. Kelolan returned to his mansion and started the wedding

preparations. On the way he had sent messengers to Nasreddin Hodja to invite him to his wedding.

After Nasreddin Hodja had returned to Akehir with his share, he clothed the poor and the orphans,

and spent most of his money on good deeds. And at the same time he heard from his friends

conversation and from the travellers passing by that Kelolan had got a mansion built in his village,had hired menservants, had bought fields and started to live like a sultan, and he felt happy about

the things he heard. When he heard about Kelolans wedding invitation and that he was going to

marry Sultan Violet, he regained a lot of his good humour. He started the preparations to go to the

wedding. He bought carpets, furs, and silk cloths. He bought jewellery like earrings and a necklace for

Violet. He also bought two coaches, which four horses would pull, and he also hired two

manservants. He wore his most valuable clothes and his showiest fur. He set out with his wife a

couple of days before the wedding. The Hodja arrived at the palace with his entourage, very

ostentatiously. Kelolan welcomed the Hodja at the door. He kissed his hand. They embraced and

hugged each other. The Hodja told a lot of stories about events that he had lived, including witty

remarks, until the wedding day. He made the guests have a funny time. Kelolan and Sultan Violet

married among the entertainments with musical instruments and much conversation. There were no

words to describe their happiness. They lived happily for many years.

THE OCTOPUSOur dear world; which is turning around silently somewhere in the universe,

which is full of mysteries, secrets and a lot of unknown. The living creatures,

which you have allowed to live on you, survive and take shelter for ten

thousands of years, existing maybe only on you with everything of them. Theidealists with their genuine talent of thought, with their power of imagination;

who are possible to appear always and everywhere with their stubbornness and

by leaving the normality of the life, which they have to live with pleasure,

desire; and by getting a little over the normality to know an unknown, to help

the solutions of problems and assimilating some kinds of efforts, searches for

the benefit of that normalitists who they left behind.Although a young octopus travelled a lot of places on the blue sea, the things he

saw werent strange to him; he was indifferent to the things he saw as if he had

seen them before and the motivating passion occurring in his thought, made him

decide to reach the source, the spring of the river when he first realized it, which

was flowing into the sea.The young octopus started to move forward slowly. He could always have the

chance to watch closely the trees, the grass, the flowers, the birds and the large

and small living creatures by the river because he was taking pains to swim on

the surface. As the days passed one after the other, the broadness of the river

started to become narrow, the water started to flow a little more wildly and the

slope started to increase. Since the young octopus was swimming towards the

stream, he realized that he started to be some more compelled every passing

day. If he didnt suffer the difficulty and leave himself, he would be able to

return to the sea. However, this was a matter that he wouldnt be able to do.

Now that he was an idealist and he had come till here for the sake of an idea,

returning back could never be possible.


25/32

When the young octopus arrived at the side of the snowy mountain, which was

difficult to see from faraway, a waterfall; whose water was falling from quite

high, appeared. He had to cross this waterfall and go on his way, but how? A few

attempts he made showed that it was impossible for now. Anyway he was tired.

He had come till here without stopping, and by exerting himself to the utmost

for days. He thought I should relax for a while, gain my energy; when I believe

that I can cross this waterfall, I will come and cross it and go on my way. I will

take one of the paths I saw yesterday while I was coming, I will look for a place

where I will be able to pass my days in peace. Let the waterfall wait for now.The young octopus returned back and took one of the paths. He reached a lake

in the end by saying this or that way. The young octopus life in the lake lasted

quite long. Actually time wasnt very important for an idealist. Let the time pass.What was important was to be able to use the time skillfully. You would always

improve and show progress in point of thought. You already had this idealism

from birth. The conditions would force you to this whether you wanted or

didnt. When you started to support an idea, namely when you became an

idealist, you would think carefully of your past and you would realize and be

surprised that even how the unhappy, pessimistic, desperate days, which you

dont want to remember now, had educated you, and had made you

experienced.

Several years passed and the young octopus had grown up and had become a

mature octopus by the passing years. He always had good relationships with the

living creatures in and around the lake; he had had quite a lot of accumulation of

knowledge by adding his observations on the things they told. Everything was

very well; perhaps it would be much better if the peole hadnt pitched a camp

near the lake. As soon as the octopus saw the people, he had listened to his

common sense saying be careful, he had withdrawn to his cave at the bottom

of the lake. He was passing his days in his cave; he was sometimes touring at the

depth of the lake. On some days he saw a few boats on the lake but he couldnt

do anything more than watching the peoples in the boats rowing from the

depth of the lake while swimming.One day, while a boat was going near to the middle of the lake, it suddenly got

dark. A heavy rain started. The wind blowing gradually harder was building big

waves on the lake. The efforts of the people on the boat who were trying to


26/32

escape from the storm were useless. They werent able to prevent their boat

from capsizing and sinking. The octopus had felt the storm in advanced; he had

taken the risk to be seen by the people on the boat and he had come a few

metres close to the boat. He had covered two people, who were flopping about

when the boat sank, with his strong arms, had come to the surface to prevent

them drowning and started to swim quickly towards the shore. After leaving the

unconscious people to a safe place, the octopus withdrew to his cave in the

depth of the lake.

On the following ten days after this event, the octopus, who couldnt see any

boats on the surface of the lake, came to the surface because he thought that

the people might have gone and he looked at the shore, where the camp was,

from far away. The first thing that called his attention was the huge, iron boats.

The people had also built wooden sheds near the tents, where the camp was

pitched. There were lots of people on the shore. He started to swim towards the

branch, which let the superfluous water of the lake float into the river. He was

planning to come out of the lake going without making the people realize.

However, when he reached the exit, he realized with sadness that there were

barbed wires around, which were preventing him going. He was afraid of making

a mistake. He could pull the wires to pieces, throw away and go on his way.

There were the possibilities of getting injured and being undersized. The

waterfall on the river was already a big problem on his way. It wouldnt be

proper to be powerless after crossing the waterfall.

On the following days the surface of the lake suddenly got into action. The ships

that the people made by putting together the pieces, which they brought till the

lake shore by lorries, started to move constantly. The divers started dive from

the ships and examine the bottom of the lake. The harpoons that were in the

divers hands would direct to the octopus as soon as it was seen. There was a

huge octopus with eight arms, each of whose length was nearly five metres, and

the one who would kill this octopus would be rewarded. It was necessary to

think now. This octopus, who was wanted to be killed, saved certainly two

peoples lives in a stormy weather. They had seen the octopus before they

fainted and they informed the others too, there was even a reward. It is

necessary to consider this situation as a labyrinth without an exit.

The octopus had understood that it was impossible to live in the lake now.


27/32

Although all his goodwill, the people wouldnt let him search some more in this

lake. It was also unnecessary to live more in this lake. The things he learnt were

enough and more than enough. The octopus got out of his cave with rancor. He

came with a terrible speed out to the water surface just opposite the ships being

anchored in front of the camp. He was puffing up and up and was causing

artificial waves on the lake as he was saying you have been looking for me for

days, here I am and Im not afraid of you. He suddenly directed to his left. He

entered the branch by pulling the barbed wires at the exit of the lake to pieces

under the amazed looks of the people on the shore and he reached the river

after a while. He came before the waterfall by withstanding easily to the rivers

stream and he went up by holding his both arms out and by holding of the rocks

there.

On the following days the octopus continued the intensive efforts to reach the

source of the river. He was passing in difficulty through the gorges at the sides of

the mountain where the source existed and he was moving forward step by step

at the places where the depth didnt let him swim. The rain falling on the sides

of the mountains was turning into snow because of the weathers getting

gradually cold and trembling in the ice cold water under the snow was teaching

him how difficult the life was in the mountains. When he started to think that it

was impossible to go more forward, he found the source of the river. The source

was coming out of rocks, it was coming out of a place like a cave and it was

appearing on the earth.

The octopus summarized the topic: Now that the source had been here. It

comes out to the earth from that narrow place, it is fed by the rain and snow

water, it goes down till the waterfall by gathering some of the little rivers

water. After passing the waterfall, the water gathering a lot of branches from

both sides gradually grows and it reaches the sea, where I was born, as a river

and integrates with the sea. And the lake, where I lived for a long while, was

nothing more than a drift of water, which let its superfluous water flow into the

river by means of a branch.On his way back, while coming closer to the waterfall, the octopus started to

think. He wondered if the people would wait for him there. It was a fifty fifty

possibility. Namely, theyd either wait or wouldnt wait. It wouldnt be definite.

The octopus wasnt absolutely frightened. Anyway, fear was the last think to be


28/32

considered by an idealist in such a situation. There was no reason to be

frightened. After the octopus evaluated the situation, considered what he would

do after what might happen, he went down the waterfall. He went past the

branch, which was connecting the lake to the river, by swimming bravely on the

water.

The octopus reached the sea a few days later. He had set off years ago for the

sake of an ideal when he was a young octopus; after years, he had turned back

as a mature octopus. However, the ideal still wasnt an ideal. An idealist should

teach the others the things he learnt and should acquaint them too. As well as

you couldnt say you have enough knowledge for yourself so you wouldnt need

to learn more, you couldnt also say you were more knowledgeable than the

others; let the others not learn the things I knew. After relaxing for a while, the

octopus wanted to start his attempts. He would teach the others the things he

learnt and he would acquaint them too. Until there would be no other

knowledge in his mind what he knew but the others didntWritten by: Serdar YILDIRIM
