诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér和hé三sān根gēn头tóu发fa

很hěn久jiǔ很hěn久jiǔ以yǐ前qián，有yǒu三sān个gè女nǚ孩hái，她tā们men一yī起qǐ外wài出chū找zhǎo柴chái火huo。

A long time ago, three girls went out to collect wood.

天tiān很hěn热rè，她tā们men跳tiào下xià河hé游yóu了le个gè泳yǒng。她tā们men一yī边biān游yóu泳yǒng，一yī边biān嬉xī戏xì，溅jiàn出chū很hěn多duō水shuǐ花huā。

It was a hot day so they went down to the river to swim. They played and splashed and swam in the water.

突tū然rán，她tā们men意yì识shí到dào天tiān已yǐ经jīng很hěn晚wǎn了le，匆cōng匆cōng忙máng忙máng赶gǎn回huí村cūn子zi。

Suddenly, they realised that it was late. They hurried back to the village.

当dāng她tā们men快kuài到dào家jiā的de时shí候hou，诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér摸mō了le摸mō她tā的de脖bó子zi：她tā把bǎ项xiàng链liàn落là在zài了le外wài面mian。于yú是shì她tā请qǐng求qiú她tā的de朋péng友you们men：“和hé我wǒ一yī起qǐ回huí去qu找zhǎo找zhao吧ba！”但dàn她tā的de朋péng友you们men都dōu说shuō太tài晚wǎn了le。

When they were nearly home, Nozibele put her hand to her neck. She had forgotten her necklace! “Please come back with me and look for it!” she begged her friends. But her friends said it was too late.

诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér一yī个gè人rén回huí到dào河hé边biān，一yī找zhǎo到dào了le项xiàng链liàn，就jiù赶gǎn忙máng回huí家jiā，但dàn天tiān太tài黑hēi了le，她tā迷mí路lù了le。

So Nozibele went back to the river alone. She found her necklace and hurried home. But she got lost in the dark.

她tā远yuǎn远yuǎn地de看kàn见jiàn有yǒu个gè小xiǎo木mù屋wū，木mù屋wū里lǐ有yǒu一yī丝sī光guāng亮liàng。她tā跑pǎo到dào木mù屋wū门mén口kǒu，敲qiāo了le敲qiāo门mén。

In the distance she saw light coming from a hut. She hurried towards it and knocked at the door.

诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér吃chī了le一yī惊jīng，开kāi门mén的de是shì一yī只zhī会huì说shuō话huà的de狗gǒu：“你nǐ来lái干gàn嘛má？”诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér说shuō：“我wǒ迷mí路lù了le，我wǒ要yào找zhǎo个gè地dì方fang睡shuì觉jiào。”狗gǒu回huí答dá说shuō：“进jìn来lái吧ba，不bù然rán我wǒ就jiù咬yǎo你nǐ！”然rán后hòu诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér就jiù进jìn了le屋wū。

To her surprise, a dog opened the door and said, “What do you want?” “I’m lost and I need a place to sleep,” said Nozibele. “Come in, or I’ll bite you!” said the dog. So Nozibele went in.

狗gǒu说shuō：“给gěi我wǒ做zuò饭fàn！”诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér回huí答dá说shuō：“但dàn我wǒ从cóng来lái没méi有yǒu给gěi狗gǒu做zuò过guo饭fàn。”狗gǒu说shuō：“快kuài做zuò饭fàn，不bù然rán我wǒ就jiù咬yǎo你nǐ。”诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér没méi办bàn法fǎ，只zhǐ能néng给gěi狗gǒu做zuò了le一yī些xiē吃chī的de。

Then the dog said, “Cook for me!” “But I’ve never cooked for a dog before,” she answered. “Cook, or I’ll bite you!” said the dog. So Nozibele cooked some food for the dog.

狗gǒu说shuō：“给gěi我wǒ铺pū床chuáng！”诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér回huí答dá说shuō：“但dàn我wǒ从cóng来lái没méi有yǒu给gěi狗gǒu铺pū过guo床chuáng。”狗gǒu说shuō：“快kuài铺pū床chuáng，不bù然rán我wǒ就jiù咬yǎo你nǐ。”诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér没méi办bàn法fǎ，只zhǐ能néng给gěi狗gǒu铺pū了le床chuáng。

Then the dog said, “Make the bed for me!” Nozibele answered, “I’ve never made a bed for a dog.” “Make the bed, or I’ll bite you!” the dog said. So Nozibele made the bed.

诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér每měi天tiān都dōu要yào给gěi狗gǒu做zuò饭fàn，打dǎ扫sǎo屋wū子zi，洗xǐ衣yī服fu。有yǒu一yī天tiān，狗gǒu说shuō：“诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér，我wǒ今jīn天tiān要yào出chū门mén见jiàn朋péng友you。在zài我wǒ回huí来lai之zhī前qián，你nǐ要yào打dǎ扫sǎo好hǎo屋wū子zi，做zuò好hǎo饭fàn，洗xǐ好hǎo衣yī服fu。”

Every day she had to cook and sweep and wash for the dog. Then one day the dog said, “Nozibele, today I have to visit some friends. Sweep the house, cook the food and wash my things before I come back.”

狗gǒu一yī走zǒu，诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér就jiù从cóng头tóu上shàng拔bá了le三sān根gēn头tóu发fa下xià来lai。她tā把bǎ一yī根gēn头tóu发fa放fàng在zài床chuáng下xià，一yī根gēn放fàng在zài门mén背bèi后hòu，还hái有yǒu一yī根gēn放fàng在zài篱lí笆ba上shàng。然rán后hòu诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér用yòng尽jìn全quán力lì跑pǎo回huí了le家jiā。

As soon as the dog had gone, Nozibele took three hairs from her head. She put one hair under the bed, one behind the door, and one on the fence. Then she ran home as fast as she could.

当dāng狗gǒu回huí到dào家jiā的de时shí候hou，它tā开kāi始shǐ找zhǎo诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér：“诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér，你nǐ在zài哪nǎ里lǐ？”第dì一yī根gēn头tóu发fa说shuō：“我wǒ在zài这zhè儿r，在zài床chuáng底dǐ下xia。”第dì二èr根gēn头tóu发fa说shuō：“我wǒ在zài这zhè儿r，在zài门mén背bèi后hòu。”第dì三sān根gēn头tóu发fa说shuō：“我wǒ在zài这zhè儿r，在zài篱lí笆ba上shàng。”

When the dog came back, he looked for Nozibele. “Nozibele, where are you?” he shouted. “I’m here, under the bed,” said the first hair. “I’m here, behind the door,” said the second hair. “I’m here, on the fence,” said the third hair.

狗gǒu明míng白bai了le诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér耍shuǎ的de花huā招zhāo。它tā一yī路lù跑pǎo到dào诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér的de村cūn庄zhuāng，但dàn是shì诺Nuò孜zī贝bèi儿ér的de兄xiōng弟dì们men正zhèng拿ná着zhe棍gùn子zi等děng着zhe它tā呢ne！狗gǒu见jiàn状zhuàng不bù妙miào，赶gǎn紧jǐn跑pǎo开kāi了le，从cóng此cǐ再zài也yě没méi人rén见jiàn过guo它tā。

Then the dog knew that Nozibele had tricked him. So he ran and ran all the way to the village. But Nozibele’s brothers were waiting there with big sticks. The dog turned and ran away and has never been seen since.
