TRANSLATION OF THE LESSON (पाठ का हिन्दी अनुवाद)
Once, there……………………………with them.
हिन्दी अनुवाद – एक नाविक था जिसका नाम गुलीवर था। वह अपने साथियों के थ एक लम्बी समुद्री यात्रा पर निकला। एक दिन समुद्र में भयानक तूफान आया।
उसका जहाज डूब गया परन्तु गुलीवर तैरकर पास ही एक द्वीप पर पहुँच गया। वह लिलिपुट द्वीप था। जब वह वहाँ पहुँचा, वह बहुत थक गया था। जल्दी ही वह गहरी नींद में सो गया। जब वह सोया हुआ था, तब सैकड़ों छोटे-छोटे लोग वहाँ आए और उन्होंने उसे रस्सियों से बाँध दिया। जब वह उठा तब इतने छोटे-छोटे लोगों को देखकर आश्चर्यचकित हुआ। जल्दी ही वह उनका मित्र बन गया।
They untied………………………………..’Good Bye’.
हिन्दी अनुवाद – उन्होंने रस्सियाँ खोल दी और उसे भोजन दिया। उनकी रोटियाँ इतनी छोटी थीं कि वह एक साथ दस रोटियाँ खो गया। दोपहर के भोजन में उसने हज़ार रोटियाँ, सौ फूलगोमियाँ और सौ भेड़ें खाईं।
छोटे लोग उसे अपने राजा और रानी के पास ले गए। राजा का हाथ इतना छोटा था कि गुलीवर ने हाथ मिलाने के लिए अपनी केवल एक उँगली का प्रयोग किया। प्रत्येक वस्तु वहाँ इतनी छोटी थी कि वह लिलिपुट के ओटे-छोटे लोगों के बीच एक विशाल राक्षस की भाँति प्रतीत होता था। वे छोटे लोग बहुत दयालु और सहायक थे। उन्होंने उसके लिए एक नांव बनाई। गुलीवर के घर जाने का समय आ गया।
वह अपने प्रिय मित्रों से दूर जाने से बहुत उदास था। वह अपनी नाव में बैठा और यात्रा पर निकल पड़ा और छोटे-छोटे लोगों ने हाथ हिलाकर उसे ‘अलविदा’ कहा।
