In the south of Spain, there was a small village whose people were very joyful and lucky.

The children played under the shade of trees in the gardens of their home. A shepherd boy whose name was Nasir, stayed near the village with his father, mother and grandmother. Early morning each day, he takes his herd of goats up the hills to find a suitable place for them to graze. In the afternoon he would return with them to the village. At night his grandmother would tell him a story. The story of stars. This story really interested Nasir.

As usual, on one of these days, as Nasir was watching his herd and playing his flute he suddenly saw a wonderful light behind the flower bush. When he came towards the branches he saw a transparent and most beautiful crystal ball.

The crystal ball was glittering like a colorful rainbow. Nasir carefully took it in his hand and turned it around. With surprise suddenly he heard a weak voice coming from the crystal ball. It said,“You can make a wish that your heart desires and I will fulfill it.” Nasir could not believe that he had actually heard a voice. But he became so engrossed in his thoughts for he had so many wishes but he must wish for something which was impossible like the wish to be able to fly. He said to himself, if I wait till tomorrow I will remember many things. He put the crystal ball in a bag and gathered the herd, happily returned to the village. He decided that he would not tell anyone about the crystal ball.

On the following day also, Nasir could not decide what to wish for, because he really had everything he needed.

The days passed as usual, and Nasir appeared to be very cheerful that the people around him were amazed to see his cheerful disposition. One day a boy followed Nasir and his herd and hid behind a tree. Nasir as usual sat in one corner, took out the crystal ball and for a few moments looked at it. The boy waited for the moment when Nasir would go to sleep. Then he took the crystal ball and ran away. When he arrived in the village, he called all the people and showed them the crystal ball. The citizens of that village took the crystal ball in their hands and turned it around with surprise. Suddenly they heard a voice from inside the crystal ball, which said,“I can fulfill your wish.” One person took the ball and screamed,“I want one bag full of gold.” Another took the ball and said loudly,“I want two chests full of jewelry.”

Some of them wished that they would have their own palace with grand door made from pure gold instead of their old houses. Some also wished for bags full of jewelry, but nobody asked for gardens in their palaces. All their wishes were fulfilled but still the citizen of the village was not happy. They were jealous because the person that had a palace had no gold and the person that had the gold had no palace. For this reason, the citizens of the village were angry and were not speaking to each other.There was not even one garden which existed in the village where the children could play.The patience of the children was running out and they were uncomfortable.

Nasir and his family were happy and pleased. Every morning and afternoon he would play the flute.

The children could not wait anymore and decided to return the crystal ball to Nasir. The parents and neighbors went to him. The children said to Nasir,“When we had a small village we all were happy and joyful.” The parents also spoke. “In one way or another nobody was happy. The expensive palaces and jewelry only brought us pain.” When Nasir saw that the people were really regretful, he said ，“I have not wished till now, if you really want everything to return to its own place, then I will wish for it.” Everyone happily agreed. Nasir took the crystal ball in his hand turned around and wished that the village become the same as it was before. Everyone quickly turned towards the village and saw it became the same old village with gardens full of trees and fruits. Once again the people started to live happily and the children played under the shade of trees. From the next day and everyday at sunset the sound of Nasir’s flute could be heard in the village.

This story teaches us that we should be happy with whatever we have and not to be greedy.

在西班牙的南部有一个小村庄，村里的人都很快乐、知足。

村里的孩子喜欢在各自家中花园里的树荫下玩耍。村里有一个名叫拿瑟的放羊娃，他的家里还有父母亲和奶奶。每天清晨他把羊群赶到山上野草丰美的坡段吃草，到下午再把它们赶回家。每天晚上，奶奶会给他讲一个故事――星星的故事，他非常喜欢听。

有一天，拿瑟象往常一样在山上一边放羊一边吹笛子，突然他看到附近一个花丛里发出一束极美的光芒。他走过去一看，发现花下有一个耀眼而美丽的水晶球。

水晶球散发着彩虹般的光。拿瑟小心地把水晶球捡起来，轻轻地转动它。突然有一个微弱的声音从水晶球里面发出来，它说：“你可以许一个愿，我会让你的愿望实现。”拿瑟简直不敢相信他手里的水晶球能够说话。但他很快全神贯注地想自己应该许个什么愿，他有很多愿望，他要许一个很难实现的愿望――比如，让他自己能够飞翔。他心里想，如果我一直等到明天，我就会想出许什么愿最好了。于是，他没有当场许愿，而是把水晶球放入一个袋子里，愉快地聚拢羊群，下山回家。他决定回到家也不告诉任何人关于水晶球的事情。

到了第二天，拿瑟还是无法决定许什么愿，因为他真的觉得自己什么都不缺。

日子象往常一样过了一天又一天，但拿瑟看起来比以往更高兴，周围的人见到他的神态，都感到有点奇怪。有一天，一个男孩偷偷地尾随拿瑟和羊群上了山，为了不让拿瑟发现，他躲在一棵树的后面。拿瑟象往常一样在山坡上的一个角落里坐下来，拿出那个水晶球端详着。那男孩在树后面看到了，他好不容易等到拿瑟困了，睡了，就悄悄地过去偷了那个水晶球，跑下山去。回到村里，男孩叫所有的人都来看那个水晶球。人们惊奇地传看着。突然，有人听到水晶球里有个声音说：“我可以实现你们的愿望。”于是有一个人拿过水晶球喊道：“我要满满的一袋金子。”另一个把水晶球抢过去，大声说：“我要满满两箱的珠宝。”

他们当中有的人许愿要拥有自己的宫殿，并且是纯金打造的宫门。有的也是许愿要拥有整袋珠宝。却没有人许愿要一个花园。村民们的愿望都实现了，但他们并不快乐，他们互相忌妒了，因为有宫殿的村民没有得到金子，有金子的村民没有得到宫殿。他们都觉得别人得到的比自己得到的多，他们开始彼此生气，相见也互不搭理。村里没有花园，孩子们找不到地方玩耍，变得很烦躁。

与其他村民不同的是，拿瑟和他的家人仍然快乐、知足。拿瑟每天仍与笛子为伴。

村里的孩子们再也忍不住了，他们决定把水晶球还给拿瑟。他们跟大人们一起找到拿瑟，对他说：“当我们只有一个小村庄的时候，我们快乐而幸福。但自从水晶球满足了我们每个人的一个愿望之后，我们都有了这样或那样的不愉快。我们有了价值无比的宫殿和珠宝，但它们只带给我们痛苦。”看到他们都懊悔，拿瑟说：“我到现在还没有许愿呢。如果你们愿意一切返回从前的模样，我就那样许个愿好了。”大人和小孩都很赞成。于是，拿瑟把水晶球拿过来，许了愿。每个人都赶紧转向村庄，看到它又变回了原来那个样子，花园里满是树木和水果，于是村民们又开始快乐地生活，孩子们在树下玩耍。从那以后，每天太阳落山的时候都能听到拿瑟的笛声在村庄的上空飘荡。

这个故事告诉我们，无论我们拥有什么，都要快乐，不要贪婪。
