Six swans

                                 Six swans


At a village, a couple had 7 children : 6 of them are boys and 1 girl. Boys loved their younger sister dearly. But as soon as all of them born, their mother passed away. To look after the small children, their father re-married. But the step mother hated the children.
She had magical powers. She made 6 woolen shirts and went near boys. She offered the shirts to boys. Without thinking, they wore and soon they got transformed to swans. They left the house fearing life threat. Their sister came to play. But her brothers are not there.
She went in search of them. At a faraway place, she observed a lone house. Inside, she saw 6 beds. She hoped that she may see her brothers again. Likewise happened. Soon there came 6 swans. They got transformed to humans, they are her brothers.
She was happy . Soon she met with her brothers. She asked the method to get rid of the curse. Brothers said if they wear the shirts made of thorns, they will get their original form. Soon she started to prepare them. Her hands were bleeding. But she continued.
Finally, she is done. She came and gave the shirts to swans. Swans wore them and they got changed to their usual self. Sister was very happy to get her brothers back ...
