Ever heard of this story called "Happy Prince" 快乐王子? For those who never heard of may think that it's a happy story by looking at the title....however it's the contrary....a rather touching & pitiful story....
It's basically about a statue of a prince who called himself a happy prince cos his life was only filled with happiness when he was alive in the castle...now he was only a statue in his city but he was craved with golden leaves on his body, sword made of Ruby crystal, eyes made of sapphire crystal...and everyone in the city envy his statue...then there's this little swallow flew past this city & landed under this statue...
Then little swallow felt drops of water dripping on its body....thinking that it's rain but actually it's the tears of the happy prince....Being a happy prince, he had never shed a single tear before but after seeing the poor suffering in his city, he cried.....Happy prince then beg little swallow to take the ruby crystal to save the poor....and even his 2 eyes (sapphire crystal)....then he's blind but little swallow was willing to stay to accompany him....He even beg little swallow to take the golden leaves on his body to save the poor...so in the end he became just a normal ugly statue...and due to coldness of the winter, little swallow died beside the happy prince....and the heart made of lead inside the prince statue broke into half....later, those people find that the statue was so ugly and took it to burn, but only the broken heart can't be burnt so they threw it and the body of little swallow to a rubbish dump....
But the story does not end here....then a god ask one angel this : "Bring 2 things that are the most precious in that city to the heaven" and the angel brought the broken heart & little swallow to the heaven and lastly both Happy Prince & Little swallow lived happily in the heaven....for a detailed version of the story, can go to this website http://post.baidu.com/f?kz=145413713
