snow - 澤野弘之 (さわの ひろゆき)/HANNA

Once upon a time, there was a steep mountain

Where a dragon used to live

A long time ago, a man told a lie. He said

“I climbed that mountain to fight with the dragon

Then I almost killed him.

But I missed. And he was huge and black”

He just wanted to be famous by

This story and that’s why he lied

That unexpected story made the people amazed in the town

The king of the land heard that story and,

He gave him a reward

That lie became a rumor

And the rumor spread to the whole country

It ran, from the East to the West,

And the North to the South

Over many years, the rumor

Was retold among the people

After a while

A boy got inspiration from the story, then he said

“I want to be a hero like that”

Then he went to that same mountain

It was a long journey,

And it was very hot but he didn’t give up

When the boy reached the top of the mountain

What he found was a huge white dragon,

He was exhausted and injured

He threw away his sword

Which he had sharpened for this fight

He nursed the white dragon as best he could

And the white dragon recovered

Day by day with the boys help

After this the white dragon flew away into the sky

And the dragon’s scales came off,

Which became the snow

It was the first snow in the country ever

That story became so famous all over the country

From the East to the West,

From the North to the South

After many years

People talked about that boy as a legend

Words are magical for a moment

But living the experience, empowers your whole life

Do you want to hear more stories?

Or Do you want to chase the adventure?
