When they reached the den,
the lion stretched deeply
and lay down.
“When the time comes,
I will stay beside you.
You will not be alone.
Even after you are gone,
I will never forget you.”
Hearing this,
the lion looked up at Guu
with quiet happiness.
As always,
Guu began to sing:
“Guu… guu… guu…”
The lion gave a great yawn
and fell into a peaceful sleep.
It dreamed of living in harmony
with all the animals of the harbor town.
After making sure
that the lion was asleep,
Guu quietly left the den.
