Description
The young canary leaves his forest with his family, fleeing birds of prey. During his travels from land to land, he learns several languages. He is sometimes sad, sometimes confused, and always longs for his homeland. One day, he roars bravely and saves the gazelles from hungry wolves. And so, the canary becomes a lion.
يغادرُ الكناري الصغيرُ مع عائلته غابتَهم، هرباً من الطيورِ الجارحةِ، وخلال تنقُّلِه وتَرحالِه من أرضٍ إلى أرضٍ؛ يُتقنُ لغاتٍ عدّةً، إنّه حزينٌ تارة، حائر تارةً، مشتاق لِوطنِه. يزأرُ بشجاعةٍ يوماً فينقذُ الغزلانَ من الذئابِ الجائعةِ. ويصبحُ بذلك الكناري الذي صار أسداً
