أَخِيرًا نَجَحَ وَلَمْ تَقَعِ الْقَشَّةُ هَذِهِ الْمَرَّةَ، فَرَفْرَفَ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ فَرَحًا.

He finally succeeded; the straw didn't fall this time, and he flapped his wings in delight.

ثُمَّ بَدَأَ يَجْمَعُ كَثِيرًا مِنَ عِيدَانِ الْقَشِّ، وَيُنَظِّمُهَا بِصَبْرٍ.

He began gathering straw stalks, arranging them with patience.

مَرَّتْ أَيَّامٌ وَالْعُصْفُورُ يَعْمَلُ لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا، حَتَّى اكْتَمَلَ عُشُّهُ فَوْقَ الْغُصْنِ.

Days passed as the bird worked night and day until his nest was finished on the branch.
