00:00Once upon a time there was a farmer who lived in a village.
00:02He had a hen that laid a golden egg every day, which he sold for a good profit.
00:06Yet his greed consumed him, prompting him to kill the hen, hoping to find more eggs inside.
00:11Instead, he discovered only one egg, and was left feeling ashamed,
00:15realizing too late the cost of his greed.
00:17The villagers gathered around, gazing at the farmer with disappointment,
00:20their whispers filled with concern.
00:22As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows,
00:26the farmer held the solitary golden egg in his trembling hands.
00:30Understanding that his greedy desire had cost him everything.
00:32With a heavy heart, the farmer walked away from the village,
00:35the disapproving looks of the villagers burning in his memory.
00:38His once thriving farm now lay barren and empty,
00:41a victim of his own greed reminding him of the hen that had once brought him prosperity.
00:46As the sun set on the horizon, the farmer sat alone on a weathered wooden bench,
00:50beneath an ancient tree, lost in contemplation, tears glistening in his eyes.
00:55In his lap rested the once bright golden egg, now dull and tarnished.
01:00A poignant reminder of the opportunities he had squandered,
01:02and the burden of his regret.
