1
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: Welcome Sleep Night Stories Daffodelia. Daffodelia's favorite hobby was painting flowers.

2
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: She had a lovely little paint bucket and a magical

3
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: paint brush. When she dipped the brush into the paint

4
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: bucket and touched the flowers with just the tip of it,

5
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 1: they glowed with wonderful colors. She enjoyed painting flowers very much.

6
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: When night fell and everybody went to sleep, she would

7
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: fly around the sky with her paint bucket and wonderbrush.

8
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: She visited all the gardens and painted the flowers. She

9
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: liked it so much that she spent the whole night

10
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: painting flowers. The flowers sat up and waited impatiently until

11
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 1: Daffodilia came to dress them up in rainbow colors. She

12
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: flew all around the flower gardens, painting the flowers quickly

13
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: before daybreak. No one else knew that it was she

14
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: who painted them during the night. Only the flowers themselves

15
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: knew the secret. When the sun rose, the flowers woke

16
00:01:54,560 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: up and smiled in multi color beauty. One day, as

17
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: she was flying around hurriedly painting the wild flowers in

18
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,399
Speaker 1: the middle of a forest, she came upon a garden

19
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: with not a single flower in it. The whole garden

20
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: looked very pale and gloomy, and there was a little

21
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: odd looking hut in the middle. Since there were no

22
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: flowers to paint in the garden, she flew away, but

23
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 1: as she was passing over the garden's boundary, she heard

24
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: some one sobbing. Who's crying. Daffodilia looked around to see

25
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: who it was, but there was no one to be seen.

26
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: She heard it again. It had to have come from

27
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: the pale garden, she thought, but it looked abandoned and

28
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: not a flower was in sight. A huge fence made

29
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: with thorny sticks went all the way around the garden.

30
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: Daffodelia peeped through the fence to see who was so unhappy.

31
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: Oh no, please, Daffodilia, don't go in, the wild flower

32
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: shouted all at once. Why why shouldn't I go in?

33
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: Daffodelia asked Daffodilia, That.

34
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: Garden belongs to a witch.

35
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: She doesn't like any flowers in her garden, and she

36
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: doesn't let anyone enter. Not even a single little bee

37
00:03:59,360 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: is allowed.

38
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 2: She sees you, you'll be in big trouble.

39
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: The wild flowers cried. The blubbering sound, which had quit,

40
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: started again when the flower spoke up. Oh, no, someone

41
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: is crying. I must go and see what I can do.

42
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: Daffodelia peeped through the fence once more. Oh, there you are,

43
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: she could finally see. It was a tiny little flower

44
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: who was crying underneath a bush. The flower looked pale

45
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: and fragile. She cried so much that Daffodelia couldn't bear it.

46
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Little flower, why are you crying? She asked gently. The

47
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: little flower lifted her head and looked at Daffodilia with

48
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,320
Speaker 1: tear filled eyes.

49
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 2: I feel very lonely. No one comes to keep me

50
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 2: company because I am so pale and ugly. The bees

51
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: and butterflies visit all the other flowers, but do not

52
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 2: come to me because I'm not pretty. I don't have

53
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 2: any color at all. The little pale flower sobbed and sobbed.

54
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 2: Daffodelia felt sorry for her. Oh don't cry, little flower.

55
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 2: I will give you beautiful colors.

56
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: Then you also will be pretty like the others, and

57
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:52,239
Speaker 1: the bees and butterflies will come to you too, she said,

58
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: just as she was about to creep under the fence

59
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: to go to the little flower. All the wild flowers

60
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: shouted again.

61
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 3: Oh no, Daffodilia, don't go in. The witch hates flowers

62
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 3: and colors. That's why that plain little flower is hiding

63
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,799
Speaker 3: under the bush. If you go in, you'll get caught

64
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 3: by the witch.

65
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: But please, I want to help that poor flower. She

66
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: is so sad. I want to give color to her

67
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 1: and make her happy. Daffodilia said, well, then you wait

68
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: here until I go and see whether the witch is

69
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: still sleeping, said one hummingbird, who had been watching from

70
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: a branch. He flew towards the witch's hot at once

71
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: and came back tweeting, hurry up, hurry up, the witch

72
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 1: is still sleeping.

73
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 2: Go in and paint the flower before she wakes.

74
00:06:54,040 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: Up, said the bird. Daffodilia was very happy. She crept

75
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: through the fence into the witch's garden and went to

76
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: the pale little flower.

77
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 3: Daffodilia, be careful, be careful.

78
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: The flowers and the butterflies shouted as she went in.

79
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: The pale flower was very happy. Her face was flushed

80
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 1: with happiness. Daffodilia knelt down beside her and started to paint.

81
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 1: She had barely touched the flower when she was pulled

82
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 1: to her feet by someone. Oh no, she cried. It

83
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: was the witch of the Pale Garden. She had woken

84
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: up and come to see what was going on. What

85
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: are you doing here, the witch growled, Ah ah, I

86
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: just came to paint this little flower. Daffodilia stammered in fear.

87
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: What to paint a flower? I'll paint you instead. The

88
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: witch held her by the wings and pushed her right

89
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: down on top of the little flower. And then she

90
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: grabbed Daffodelia's bucket and poured all the paint onto her head.

91
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: Oh no, please, The paint dripped down her head. The

92
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: strands of her golden hair were streaked with paint, and

93
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:45,319
Speaker 1: when she shook her head, little driblets of paint sprinkled

94
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: all over. Just then an amazing thing happened. The little

95
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: driblets that had splashed on to the ground from her

96
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: hair popped up magically as lovely little golden flowers. The

97
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: whole garden was soon covered with them. Some of the

98
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: driblets that had landed on the witch's nose also popped

99
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: up as golden flowers. The witch, who hated flowers, got

100
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 1: very angry. Her cottage also was covered with the golden flowers.

101
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: She couldn't stop the flowers from blooming. She couldn't bear

102
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: their lovely fragrance either. She plopped the paint bucket on

103
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 1: Daffodilia's head and went away angrily. Bees and butterflies fluttered

104
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,559
Speaker 1: all around her. She waved her hands, trying to beat

105
00:09:54,600 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: them away, but she couldn't. The flowers were blooming all

106
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: over the place, and the whole garden turned golden with

107
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 1: the magical flowers. The witch couldn't bear it anymore, so

108
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: she packed up her things and left to go to

109
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: a new forest far away, kicking at the flowers angrily

110
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: as she went. The sun was rising in the eastern sky.

111
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: The little golden flowers danced merrily, and the little flower,

112
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: no longer pale, also laughed merrily, glowing in golden color.

113
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: The morning breeze refreshed them and took their lovely fragrance

114
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 1: all across the forest. Daff O'delia was very happy. She

115
00:10:54,559 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 1: laughed and flitted among the flowers, singing happily. The flowers,

116
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: bees and butterflies sang along with her. When the sun

117
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: had risen, she left to go back to fairyland. The

118
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: golden flowers waved to her. As she flew away, they

119
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:28,959
Speaker 1: looked so beautiful in the sunlight, just like daffodelia. Thereafter,

120
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: the lovely golden flowers were called daffodils, and that's how

121
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: daffodils came into this world.
