One winter morning, Sister Fox went out into the forest to hunt.
Grouse... hey, grouse... I've just been to town.
If you have, then you have.
And I got an order: no grouse is to sit in trees but must strut about, at ease.
If you got it, then you got it.
Grouse. Grouse, who's riding?
A peasant man.
- And where's he going? - Here.
Then farewell, grouse. Farewell, I must be off.
If you must be off, then you must be off.
The fox saw the sled, and decided to find out why the man was riding to the river.
Be caught, fishies small and large!
Be caught, fishies sma...
The fox decided to outsmart the man,
and pretended to be dead.
What a splendid find.
My old woman will have a collar for her overcoat!
Ya, ya, giddyup!
Ya, giddyup!
The fox felt bolder, now: she would have a tasty lunch!
Well, old woman, what a collar I have brought you for your overcoat!
Take a look at the sled - it's lying atop the fish.
Well, does the collar strike your fancy, old woman?
A-a-ah! You dare to trick me!
A hungry wolf skulked through the forest
and met the fox.
Hello, little sister! Enjoying your meal?
A great deal, now stand back, don't be a heel!
Give me the fish!
Catch some yourself and eat them!
But I don't know how.
I'll teach you. Let's go to the ice hole.
You just sit there and chant a spell:
Be caught, fishies small and large!
Shine, shine, stars in the sky... Freeze, freeze, wolf's tail!
Little sister, what are you mumbling over there?
I'm helping you... I'm chanting a spell to make all the fish bite your tail!
Bitter cold arrived, but the wolf kept waiting and waiting for the fish to bite.
Shine, shine, stars in the sky... Freeze, freeze, wolf's tail!
Wow! That's a lot of fish back there.
H-yah, I can't even pull them out!
Well, farewell dear wolf! I must be off.
The fox had long wanted to treat herself to some chickens.
She waited until the old woman went out to get water
and hurried in to get her prey.
Wolf! Wolf! Wolf! Beat him!
Beat him!
The dog saw a frightful monster
and hid in the bag out of fear.
The wolf and the fox met again.
Watch out, little sister.
I'll pay you back now for the lesson you taught me.
Just look at how they beat me up!
Little brother, you don't have a tail! Ay-ay-ay!
But at least your head's in one piece!
They beat me and split my head open.
I'm barely crawling along.
And what's that you have?
I've gotten some hens and roosters.
If you carry me, I'll share them with you.
All right... climb on my back. I'll carry you.
The unbeaten rides the beaten.
What are you mumbling up there, fox?
I'm chanting a spell for your wounds to heal faster, dear brother.
Okay, enough! Give me those hens and roosters!
Oh, don't be silly, little brother...
...I was just joking... a-ah!
Just look at that fine prey that's getting away!
Where?
That was how the sly fox was punished.
Don't steal, fox! And don't mislead!
That's the end of this tale.
