How the Ethiopian tamed her husband

Since there was a woman who was greatly troubled by a husband. he no longer lived her. he neglected her and didn't seem to mind whether she was happy or sad.

so the woman took her troubles to her local herbalists. she told him her story, full of pity for herself  and her sad plight. 'can you give me a charm to make him love me again ?' she asked anxiously.

the herbalist thought for a moment and replied, 'I will help you, but first you must bring me three hairs from the mane of a living lion. these I must have before I can make a charm for you'.

the woman thanked the herbalist and went away.  when she came her near her home she sat down on a rock and began to think , 'how shall I do this thing?' there is a lion who often comes near my village, it is true. but he is fierce and roars fearfully'. then she thought again and at last she knew what she would do. 

and so, early next morning she took a young lamp and went to the place where the lion was accustomed to stroll about. she waited anxiously. at last she saw the lion approaching. now was the time. quickly she arose and leaving the lamb in the path of the lion, she went home. and so it was the time. quickly she arose and leaving the lamp in the path of the lion, she went home. and so it was that everyday in the morning the woman would rise and take a young lamp to the lion. soon the lion came to know the woman. for she was always in the same place at the same time every day with a young and tender lamp. she was indeed a kind and attentive woman.

it was not long before the lion began to wag his tail each time he saw her and would come close to her and he would her strock his head. each day the woman would stay quietly stocking the lion, gently and lovingly. then one day when she knew that the lion trusted her she carefully pulled three hairs from his mane, and happily set out for the herbalist's dwelling.

'see,' she said triumphantly as she entered, 'here they are!' and she gave him the three hairs from the lion's mane.

'how is it that you have Been so clever?' asked the herbalist In amazement.

so the woman told him the story of how she had patiently succeeded in winning the hairs from the lion. 

a smile spread over the face of the herbalist, and leaning forward, he said 'you have tamed the lion, now tame your husband in the same way'.

This story make old school life feelings
(Don't miss this)

Once upon a time there lived a gama-rala and his wife who had a daughter by the name of kaluhamy. They loved her dearly, for she was the only child they had. But unfortunately she died at an early age and this saddened the parent very much.

Not long after this sad event there came a very lean beggar to the house when the gama-rala was out in the field. Seeing the miserable state of the beggar, the sorrowing mother of Kaluhamy took pity on him and inquired how he got so lean. The beggar replied “e-lova gihin me-lova ava” (“I have just returned from the other world”). He meant of course that he had been very, very ill recently and had just escaped death. But the foolish woman thought that he had really gone to other world, and asked if he had not seen her daughter, Kaluhamy, there. Seeing that the woman was a very foolish person, the beggar gave cunning answer.

He said, “of course, I knew Kaluhamy there. In fact it was I who married her”. The old woman believed his story and showed her supposed son-in-law great affection. She gave him good things to eat, and later all the rich jewels and silks she had, to be taken to her daughter as her dowry. The beggar hastened away with them without losing much time.

A short while later the Gama-Rala returned home and when he heard what had happened he flew into a rage, he found fault with his wife for having acted so foolishly, and mounting his horse he chased after the beggar. In a short time he saw him and was about to overtake him. thereupon the beggar climbed a tree but the Gama-Rala followed him there too. The beggar, then got down by a branch, and untying Gama-Rala’s on it as he could.

The gama-rala was still on the tree and found that nothing could be done. Therefore he shouted after the  feeling Beggar, “son-in-law! Son-in-law! Tell my daughter Kaluhamy, that the jewels are from the mother, but the horse is from the father!” 😂😂😂
