The black and white birds

It is getting dark,
all was hungry,
the birds gathered under the black tree
for their last meal.
The white bird who climbed up
first ate a fruit
and tore the best of the rest
for those on the ground
until they were satisfied.

It is getting dark,
all was hungry,
the birds gathered under the black tree,
the birds to feed.
A black bird who climbed up
first, ate the best of the fruit
and dropped the rest with the worst
after a plea from those on the ground
and until he was full alone.
