उत्तर
The poet saw a donkey that was just one day old. The donkey's head was too big for his neck to hold, and his legs were long, loose, and shaky. They moved suddenly and unsteadily and didn't seem to be of much use. The donkey tried to run and leap playfully, but he did not seem quite sure how it was done. His peculiar little coat was soft and grey and curled at his neck in a pretty way. His face looked hopeful and he appeared to be thinking about life. Feeling adventurous, he moved around awkwardly, searching for something. Then he lay flat on the ground to rest. The poet says that the little donkey looked small and weak, and he prayed that the world would be kind to him.
