The Honest Child

الطفل الصادق

Once upon a time, there was a curious child named Ali. One day, Ali met a wise old man with a long white beard. The old man taught Ali about the importance of telling the truth. في يوم من الأيام، كان هناك طفل فضولي اسمه علي. في أحد الأيام، التقى علي برجل عجوز حكيم ذو لحية بيضاء طويلة. علّم الرجل العجوز علي أهمية قول الحقيقة.

The old man explained, 'When you tell the truth, you are being honest. Honesty means always telling what really happened.' Ali nodded and promised to be honest. وأوضح الرجل العجوز: "عندما تقول الحقيقة، فأنت صادق". الصدق يعني دائمًا إخبار ما حدث بالفعل. أومأ علي برأسه ووعد بأن يكون صادقاً.

Ali remembered the old man's lesson as he went on his way. One day, Ali accidentally broke his mother's favorite vase. Instead of hiding it, he went to his mother and confessed what happened. His mother hugged him and praised his honesty. تذكر علي درس الرجل العجوز وهو في طريقه. في أحد الأيام، كسر علي بطريق الخطأ مزهرية والدته المفضلة. وبدلاً من إخفاء الأمر ذهب إلى والدته واعترف بما حدث. احتضنته والدته وأثنت على صدقه.

From that day on, Ali always told the truth. Ali's friends soon learned the importance of honesty too. Together, they made a promise to always be honest with each other. ومنذ ذلك اليوم فصاعدًا، ظل علي يقول الحقيقة دائمًا. وسرعان ما تعلم أصدقاء علي أهمية الصدق أيضًا. لقد قطعوا معًا وعدًا بأن يكونوا صادقين دائمًا مع بعضهم البعض.

And so, Ali and his friends lived happily ever after, always telling the truth and being honest with one another. وهكذا، عاش علي وأصدقاؤه في سعادة دائمة، وكانوا يقولون الحقيقة دائمًا ويصادقون مع بعضهم البعض.
