The swallow then took a breath, after that he continued, “What is the request that you want me to do dear prince?” the prince said to the swallow, “See that poor old man writing a story, he is very hungry; and I could tell by his face,” “What do you want me to　give to him dear prince?” asked the swallow, as if he had so many questions to ask; “I want you to take out my blue eye ball, it is like a gem, and bring it to the man so that he could finish his act; and be happy again.”

　At these words the swallow said, “OH my dear prince, I couldn’t do that! I swear! Because…” “No little swallow, you must do what I say, and help that poor man!” at these words, the swallow had no choice but to obey, he took out the other prince’s eye; with a squeak, as if he was helping the poor prince to recover from his pain.

　When the swallow flew to the man with the blue sapphire gem, he felt the warm wind of the spring dancing around in his brain. When he arrived, he placed the gem under the man’s face, and flew back to the prince. When he returned, the prince asked the swallow, “Did you succeed?” asked the prince joyfully, “I did, and I hope the man enjoys it too.

　The man awoke eventually, when he saw the blue sapphire gem; he said happily, “What on the world is this? Somebody actually likes my plays, yes! Now I can finish my play;” and he began to write. The next day, the swallow flew away to Egypt and before that he said to the prince, “I am going to fly away to Egypt today and…” “Oh please little swallow, oh please can you stay with me for one last night?” but the swallow was very satisfied, “But, dear prince; I can’t do that, my friends are waiting for me and it is getting colder and colder here; I have to go to Egypt, where the sun is hot, and it is warm and cool there;” “You must little swallow, you must stay with me for one last night,” “Dear prince, I couldn’t and…” “Swallow this can’t be, you have to stay with me; I command you!” the little swallow had no choice but to obey.
