शाम एक अमीर युवक था। जब उसके पिता का जल्दी निधन हो गया, तो वह अपने पिता की सारी संपत्ति का मालिक बन गया।

Months passed. One day, inspite of laziness, he agreed to take part in a hunt. He was not used to riding fast so he found himself lagging behind other friends. He got lost and wandered away in the woods.
महीने बीत गए। एक दिन, आलस्य के बावजूद, वह शिकार में भाग लेने के लिए तैयार हो गया। उसे तेज गाड़ी चलाने की आदत नहीं थी इसलिए वह खुद को अन्य दोस्तों से पिछड़ता हुआ पाता था। वह भटक गया और जंगल में भटक गया।
Six to seven hours passed with him roaming around like this. He felt tired and hungry. Suddenly he saw a peasant's Hut. He rode up to it and asked for a little food.
ऐसे ही घूमते-घूमते उसे छह-सात घंटे बीत गये। उसे थकान और भूख महसूस हुई। अचानक उसकी नजर एक किसान की झोपड़ी पर पड़ी। वह उसके पास गया और थोड़ा सा भोजन माँगा।
"I am poor man. I have only roti and daal, sir" said the peasant "but you are most welcome to have these."
"मैं गरीब आदमी हूं। मेरे पास केवल रोटी और दाल है, श्रीमान" किसान ने कहा, "लेकिन इन्हें खाने के लिए आपका स्वागत है।"
The young man was very hungry and he really loved the food. He liked it more than all the rich food he had been eating earlier.
युवक बहुत भूखा था और उसे भोजन बहुत पसंद आया। उसे यह पहले से खाए गए सभी गरिष्ठ भोजनों से अधिक पसंद आया।
He thanked the peasant who also gave him directions back to his home. He got back to return home and rested.
उसने उस किसान को धन्यवाद दिया जिसने उसे उसके घर वापस जाने का रास्ता भी बताया। वह घर लौट आया और आराम करने लगा।

वह अपने गरिष्ठ भोजन और आलसी तरीकों पर वापस चला गया। खाना फिर बेस्वाद था. उसे आश्चर्य हुआ कि साधारण दाल रोटी का स्वाद इतना अच्छा क्यों है।
