The Hunter and the Deer
They will try it in the forest.
The hunter will see but only have eyes for the gazelle.
Then they will try it in the Bush,
and the hunter would turn around and go back home because he still has some stew.
While the Hunter is home taking a nap,
They will try it in his town.
He will say he didn't know when it happened, he was asleep!
Then they will try it in his street.
He will say it is not his house.
Then one day the hunter will go to the forest for a deer.
He will come back home empty-handed because there's nothing left in the forest.
Only to get home and see also that there's nothing left at home.
