Why the Hawk kills the Chicken

Once upon a time, a long time ago, there was a very beautiful, young and attractive hen who lived with her parents.
One day Hawk was flying around and noticed the beautiful hen picking up corn close to her father's house. Hawk flew down immediately and greeted the hen and offered to marry her.
She was flattered and agreed, so Hawk spoke to her parents and the amount of the dowry was set--which consisted of mostly corn. Hawk paid the dowry and took his new bride home.
Shortly after, a young Cock who lived near Hen's father's house and had fallen in love with her became angry and jealous that Hawk had married Hen. He went after her to Hawk's house and while Hawk was away he crowed in his best voice to Hen. When she heard his sweet voice she could not resist his invitation, so she went out to him and they both ran away from Hawk's house.
When Hawk came back and did not find his wife Hen, he hovered around looking for her for days. Then one day he saw her in the Cock's house. He went to the king and reported the mattar. The king sent for Hen's parents and told them to repay Hawk the amount of the dowry he paid if their daughter does not return to Hawk.
Hen's parents responded that they did not have the money to pay Hawk because they were poor, so the king decided that Hawk could kill and eat any of Cock's children whenever and wherever he found them as payment of his dowry, and if the Cock made any arguments the king would not listen to him.
The End.
