Once upon a time, there were an old woman and an old man. The woman had a hen and the old man had a rooster. The womans hen used to lay eggs every day and she was very happy with this, but would not give the man any. One day the old man got angry and said: Hey you! Give me some eggs too, you eat every day, and I
But the woman was evil and didnt want to give the man any egg and she advised the man to beat his rooster to lay eggs: I beat my hen and look at it now, an egg a day. And so did the man. After being beaten, the rooster ran away from the old mans house.
It was wandering the streets when he found something: it was a small bag with two gold coins in it.

A rich man was in his horse and carriage when he met the sad rooster and saw what it was carrying in its beak: Look! Gold coins. He took the little bag from the rooster and rode away.
But the rooster would follow him and cry out:
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!
Give me back my gold!
But the rooster would follow him and cry out:
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!
Give me back my gold!
The lord got angry with the noisy rooster and asked his coachman to throw it into a deep well. But the rooster drank the whole water from it, flew out of it and ran after the lords carriage crying out:
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!
Give me back my gold!
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!
Give me back my gold!

When he got home, the lord told an old woman from the kitchen to take the rooster and throw it into the oven. But the rooster poured all the water from the well over the fire, got out of the oven and said:
"Cock-a doodle-do! My lord!
Give me back my gold!"
"Cock-a doodle-do! My lord!
Give me back my gold!"
Then the lord thought: Ill take it home and throw it in the animals barn. That will teach it something to remember
But look what happened. The rooster ate all the animals: cows, pigs, bulls.
The lord was getting even angrier with it and threw it in a cage filled with coins and said: Here! Take all the coins you can! Hope you choke on them and stop your cock-a-doodle-doos. The rooster swallowed the coins, somehow got out of there and went to the lord once again:
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!
Cock-a-doodle-doo! My lord!

Then the lord could stand it no longer. He threw the little bag with the two coins to the rooster and let it free.
The rooster then found its way home to its master, the old man, and when it got there, it spit out of its belly all the animals and gold coins it had swallowed from the mean lord. The old man could hardly believe what was happening.

And neither could the old woman who was now very jealous. She dared to ask the old man: You old neighbour, give me some gold coins too for Ill be forever grateful. But the man didnt and reminded her of her eggs.
The old woman grew very angry with her poor little hen that had given her eggs every single day until then and started beating it. The hen found a small bead on the ground, swallowed it and laid it as if it were an egg hoping that the mean old woman would be again pleased and proud of it. When she saw the bead the woman thought her hen was mocking at her, so she threw it out and never saw it again.

And this is how the old man got rich and lived happily ever after with its rooster while the old mean woman lived her life in poverty and solitude until her death.
