The Tiger And The Brahmin Poem by gnrao rao

Passing through a forest
was a Brahmin traveler,
He was repeating the
name of God to save
him from any danger.

On the way, he saw
a tiger in a cage,
making loud noise,
and could not rest
even a little time.

The tiger called
the brahminto come
and help him to get out
of the cage,
before the hunter's
arrival.
Promises were given
by the tiger,
that he would not do
any harm to him.

Believing this,
the brahminopened
the gate.
The tiger got ready
to do its work.

The brahmin took
God's name,
There appeared,
the cunning fox.

Both the brahmin
and the tiger,
told their side
of the story.

Fox heard all
they told
patiently
and thought for
a while.

I want you
tiger to show me
where were you
before this brahmin
came.

Could you do that
for me please?
went inside the cage,
and was there.

The fox told the
brahmin to close
the gate at once
as it was before.

The brahmin did that.
he was saved from the
treacherous tiger.

Fox told the brahmin,
You go now soon from here.
Hereafter take the name
of God and use your
presence of mind too.

Brahmin thanked the Fox,
God is disguise.
and went away happily.
