Nightingale and Rose

The Nightingale and the Rose tells a beautiful and sad story: a young man wanted very much to dance with his sweetheart, but she once promised that if he gave her a red rose, she would dance with him. So the young man looked around. But he could not find one in all the garden, and his heart was broken. The nightingale knew the student's trouble and decided to help him. She held her breast against the rose and sang in the moonlight.The rose pierced her heart, and her song rose higher and higher, till at last she was red with her blood, and the nightingale died high in the grass. When the young man found the rose reddened by the nightingale's blood, he gave it to his sweetheart. But she no longer appreciated it. She'd rather be with the colonel who gave her the jewels. From disappointment and pain to anger, the young man threw the rose into the ditch, and a wheel ran over the beautiful flower... Students no longer believe in love. A cruel fairy tale, expressed by clean and fresh language, makes people feel the light sadness brought by thinking about life and the world.
