00:00In a forest lived a rather rickety mouse, he was so afraid of the fox, the wolf and
00:16even himself for that matter, that if the wind blew and a branch cracked he looked around
00:24for a hole he could hide in.
00:28Because of this, all the little animals made fun of him.
00:34How scared is he?
00:38You're even scared of the wind.
00:41You're so scared.
00:47One day the mouse got his act together and went over to see the king of the jungle, the
00:53lion.
00:54The lion had just finished having his lunch, he was taking a nap in front of the cave.
01:01The mouse's friends were all curious as to what the mouse had planned.
01:06The mouse started to climb up the lion's tail.
01:13He got up on the lion's back, with a very confident look on his face he posed to his
01:19friends.
01:21Although he was very scared, he was doing everything in his hand not to make it obvious.
01:27Right at that moment the lion woke up, and as he shook his fur the mouse fell off.
01:36The mouse and the lion came eye to eye.
01:43All the other animals were worried.
01:51Oh no!
01:52The lion will swallow the mouse!
01:55What nerve!
01:56What courage!
01:57What are you doing on my back?
02:01King of the jungle, please don't eat me.
02:09I'm the most scared and the most vulnerable of them all.
02:14My life passes by shaking with fear.
02:19Even leaf falls off of the tree.
02:23I'm scared.
02:24I'm fed up with this, I want to get rid of this fear.
02:29You're the king of the jungle, with just one big roar the animals fear you.
02:35Would you consider taking me to your custody?
02:40The lion listened to the mouse in silence.
02:44The mouse was wondering what his reply was going to be.
02:54And why should I help you?
02:57Give me one good reason as to why I shouldn't eat you.
03:02Your help will be returned, I promise.
03:06Maybe one day I will help you.
03:09As soon as the mouse finished what he had to say, the lion roared in such a way.
03:16How can such a tiny mouse as yourself be of any help to me?
03:23But seeing the tiny mouse shaking in front of him, the lion decided not to eat him.
03:30Thank God I am full, now get out of my sight.
03:35The mouse ran and got away from there.
03:38Watching all that was happening from afar, the friends of the mouse were really surprised.
03:44Some time had passed by, the lion got hungry and started wandering around in the forest.
03:50But he could not notice the hunter's trap and got caught.
03:54He was hung in the air in a big net.
03:59He tried to break free from the net, but he could not do it.
04:04He was the king of the forest, so if he could yell for help, he would be humiliated.
04:10And all the hunters would hear him and come to get him faster.
04:14Being out of options, he began to wait.
04:20Meanwhile, the other animals living in the forest noticed the lion.
04:25But nobody could dare get close to him.
04:33When he was passing by, little mouse saw the lion and he decided to help him.
04:39He went directly next to him, he started to climb the lion's long tail
04:44and when he reached the net, he began to chew on it.
04:49At that moment, the bunny came running next to them.
04:53Hey buddy, hurry up, the hunters are coming.
04:56The other animals, who were gathered around, suddenly started to run around when they heard the word, hunter.
05:03But the mouse kept on chewing with persistence.
05:08In the end, the net was torn apart and the lion was caught.
05:13In the end, the net was torn apart and the lion fell down and got away.
05:18Come on, jump on my back, let's get out of here.
05:21The mouse jumped on the lion's back and they got away from there.
05:28All breathless, the lion arrived in front of his cave.
05:32He kneeled down and the mouse jumped off.
05:37When you told me that one day, you might be able to help me,
05:41I underestimated you.
05:44I thought you were a tiny mouse with no use at all.
05:49But you saved my life.
05:54It's my pleasure, my king.
05:56You don't have to be afraid of me anymore.
05:59In fact, you do not need to fear anything, because you're a very courageous mouse.
06:05If I am the king of the jungle, from now on,
06:09From now on, you are my courageous prince.
06:17Lion and the mouse began to laugh.
06:27All the animals, watching all that was happening from afar,
06:30came out and applauded the courageous mouse.
06:33The lion and the mouse became best friends
06:37and the forest lived in peace forever.
06:44One day, a mouse who lived in the city went to visit his friend.
06:50His friend had left the city a while back and began to live in the country.
06:58After his visit, the lion and the mouse became best friends.
07:03After his long journey, the city mouse had finally arrived next to his friend in the village.
07:13This place smells awful. How do you live in such a place?
07:17After a long and tiring walk, the city mouse finally arrived at his friend's field.
07:23The country mouse had made himself a house under the ground.
07:27This is where he lived.
07:30Why does my friend live in such a bad environment? I still don't understand.
07:35The city mouse knocked on the door.
07:39The country mouse opened the door.
07:41He was very surprised and at the same time, he also was very happy to see his friend.
07:48Welcome, my friend. What brings you to this side of the town?
07:52I was bored from the city life.
07:54I've been meaning to come and see you and the way you live for some time now.
07:59I can see that you're not all that happy.
08:01Says who? Why don't you come inside and I'll prepare something to eat.
08:08They both came in.
08:10The city mouse was amazed to see the inside of his house
08:14because the country mouse was living in a dark, small, airless, little hole.
08:21What a dark and tiny hole you have. How do you live here?
08:25The country mouse had prepared something for his friend to eat.
08:28On the table were a piece of cheese, lettuce, carrot and kernels of corn.
08:34Come on, my friend. Enjoy this dinner.
08:38The city mouse had a look at all that was on the table and said
08:43You call this a feast? Back where we lived, mice won't turn and have a second look at this type of food.
08:49We have cakes, pastries, variety of cheese and meat.
08:53You can find anything you desire in this city.
08:58After the city mouse had finished his meal,
09:02they began to walk around the country mouse's hometown.
09:06The city mouse did not like where the country mouse was living at all.
09:12These type of places are not for my liking at all.
09:15It's very dirty and boring.
09:17You must visit my hometown one day.
09:19I should take you around the city. You must see it.
09:22I'm sure you won't come back here.
09:24The following morning, the two friends said their farewells.
09:29Soon after they had parted, the country mouse decided to visit his friend in the city.
09:35And so he began his journey.
09:38After a long journey, he arrived in the city.
09:44The country mouse arrived at his friend's house according to his friend's directions.
09:49The city mouse was living in an apartment.
09:54The country mouse was shocked when he saw where his friend was living.
09:59This huge house is yours?
10:02Not exactly. I'm sharing the house with the landlords.
10:06I'm very hungry. Show me that amazing feast you were talking about.
10:10The city mouse entered the kitchen,
10:13opened the fridge door,
10:15then took cheese, meat and a variety of vegetables and fruit.
10:20He put them on the table.
10:23And as they began to eat, they heard a cat meowing.
10:30The city mouse jumped to say,
10:32Oh no, the cat of the house heard us talking.
10:35We must hide. Follow me.
10:39Both mice entered a hole in the wall and got away.
10:43Out of breath, the country mouse asked,
10:46You live in the same house with the cat?
10:49Isn't this dangerous?
10:51It sure is, but this is the price I have to pay
10:54if I want to live in luxury and wealth.
11:03After a short while, the cat left the kitchen
11:06and they came out of the hole and continued to eat.
11:11A while later, they heard the street door open
11:14and the city mouse panicked.
11:16Come on, hurry up and run.
11:18The landlord came. Run before she sees us.
11:21The mice ran back to the little hole
11:23and the country mouse, out of breath, asked once again.
11:28This time, I don't know why we ran.
11:30The lady landlord, doesn't she know you live here?
11:33Of course she doesn't. People are very dangerous.
11:37How do you live in a house like this?
11:40Well, it has its days, of course, but I'm very happy living this way.
11:43Look at this. I can eat whatever I want, whenever I want.
11:47It's safe to go. Come on, let's continue eating.
11:51The country mouse got out of the hole,
11:53but as soon as he got out, he walked towards the door
11:56and began to complain.
11:58No, thank you, mister. I have lost my appetite.
12:01This much fear is enough for me. I'm leaving.
12:03Where are you going?
12:05I'm going back home. My house might not be rich,
12:08but I live in peace with my freedom.
12:11I'd rather live in peace and feel free
12:14than to live in fear all the time.
12:20And so the country mouse returned to his poor lifestyle
12:24and continued to live happily.
12:27And he never returned to the city ever again.
