الأمير والحطّاب


كان في خدمة أحد الأمراء رجل حطّاب وكان في أثناء عمله المُضني يلعن آدم وحواء، سبب شقائه وتعبه، وهو يقول: لو كنت أنا وامرأتي مكانهما لما خالفت وصية الله السهلة، لما كنت سبب شقاء الجنس البشري. فسمعه الأمير يوماً، فقال له: سأعاملك أنت وامرأتك كما أعامل الأمراء، فتسكنان قصري، وتنعُمان بهناء صاف. إلا أني قبل أن أثبتكما في سعادتكما، سأمتحنكما امتحاناً بسيطاً، فإن تغلّبتُما على التجربة عشتما في غِبطة ورغْدِ عيش طيلة حياتكما.
فَقبل الحطاب فرحاً وأتى بامرأته وسكنا القصر الفخم. راح الخدم يعتنون بهما كل العناية، فشعرا بسـعادة لا توصف. يوماً من الأيام قَدَّم لهما الخدم مآكل شهية وبينها طبق مغطى وضعوه على المائدة وقالوا لهما: يسمح لكما الأمير بأن تأكلا من جميع الأطعمة إلاّ مما في هذا الطبق. وإذا ما كشفتما عنه طردكما من قصره، وانطلقوا. بقي الزوجان يحدقان إليه. واشتدت الفضولية عند المرأة، فقالت لزوجها: ألا نرفع الغطاء لنرى ما فيه؟ وبعد إلحاح، قبل طلبها. ورفعت المرأة الغطاء فطار منه عصفور صغير وصرخت بأعلى صوتها لشدّة اندهاشها وفزعها.
وإذا الأمير يُقبِل وينزع عنهما زينتهما ويطردهما من قصره

Sardar and ducks

A sardar went hunting one day in Ontario and bagged three ducks.

He put them in the bed of his pickup truck and was about to drive home when he was confronted by an honorary game warden who didn't like sardars.

The game warden ordered the sardar to show his hunting license, and the sardar pulled out a valid Ontario hunting license.

The game warden looked at the license, then reached over and picked up one of the ducks, sniffed its butt, and said, "This duck ain't from Ontario. This is a Quebec duck. You got a Quebec huntin' license, boy?"


The sardar reached into his wallet and produced a Quebec hunting license.

The game warden looked at it, then reached over and grabbed the second duck, sniffed its butt, and said "This ain't no Quebec duck. This duck's from Manitoba. You got a Manitoba license?"

The sardar reached into his wallet and produced a Manitoba hunting license.

The warden then reached over and picked up the third duck, sniffed its butt, and said, "This ain't no Manitoba duck. This here duck's from Nova Scotia. You got a Nova Scotia huntin' license?"

Again the sardar reached into his wallet and brought out a Nova Scotia hunting license.

The game warden was extremely frustrated at this point, and he yelled at the sardar "Just where the hell are you from?"

The sardar smiled turned around, bent over, dropped his pants, and said, "You tell me, you're the expert
.".
