A Farmer and His Sons

English Moral Stories for Inter Part-1 (For Average & Weak Students)

1. A FARMER AND HIS SONS

        Storytelling is as old as man. It has been one of the greatest sources of preaching moral values because every story is written with some moral purpose. All the prophets, saints, religious scholars, and teachers have adopted it as a source of preaching any kind of morality. If one follows the lesson preached in the story, one can avoid many perils and problems. The story “A Farmer and His Sons” also gives us a sublime moral lesson.

A Farmer and His Sons

         Once there was an old farmer. He had three sons. They always quarreled among themselves. The farmer was very worried. He wanted to see unity among his sons before his death. 

One day, he sent for his sons. He gave them a bundle of sticks. He asked them to break it. His sons tried their best to break the sticks but failed. The farmer laughed at their efforts. Then, he untied the bundle of sticks and asked his sons to break the sticks. This time, they broke the sticks easily. It was a great time for the farmer to advise his sons. He said to his sons that the sticks were strong when tied together, but they were breakable when separated. His advice had a great effect on his sons. After this, they never quarreled. The farmer also recovered his health.  We learn from the story: “Union is strength.”

Moral: 

1. Union is strength. 2. United you stand, divided you fall.
