One day, the good-hearted king was strolling in his palace garden. Suddenly his eyes fell upon a wounded bird that lay helpless on the ground. The poor creature bore blood-stained feathers and let out a faint chirp as if pleading for aid.
The king’s heart softened at the sight of the pitiable bird. Without hesitation, he approached and gently lifted its fragile body. "Why are you injured?" the king asked softly, his voice filled with concern.
The bird barely mustered the strength to lift its head and replied, "I got caught in a hunter's trap placed near my favorite tree. Frightened and hurt, I managed to escape, but as I flew away, I fell and got hurt."
The king lowered his gaze, feeling the weight of the bird’s sorrow and pain. “Fret not, little one," he whispered, "for I shall see to it that you are healed and safe.” With utmost care, he carried the bird back to the palace.
Upon reaching his chambers, the king summoned the royal physician and instructed him to treat the bird with all the attention it required. The physician, a wise and compassionate man, skillfully treated the bird’s injuries.
The physician bandaged its wounds and provided it warmth and comfort. Meanwhile, the king issued an edict banning hunting traps within the lands of his kingdom to safeguard all creatures, ensuring they could live freely.
As days passed, under the king’s vigilance and care, the bird began to heal. Gratitude filled its heart, and it slowly regained its strength. It chirped happily, a melody of thanks that resonated through the palace halls.
The king smiled, and with warmth in his eyes, he released the now-healthy bird into the sky, watching as it flew with joy and freedom. The royal garden, once a quiet sanctuary, now resounded with the cheerful songs of the bird.
The bird became a symbol of kindness, healing, and the interconnectedness of all living beings. The king, with his compassionate gesture, had not only saved a life but had also enlightened his kingdom on the virtues of love and care for all creatures
