The wolfs play the flute for the clever lamb

/ðə wʊlfs pleɪ ðə fluːt fə(r) ðə ˈklevə(r) læm/

A wolf carried off a lamb. The lamb said, “I know you are going to eat me, but before

/ eɪ wʊlf ˈkærid ɒf eɪ læm. ðə læm sed, “aɪ nəʊ juː ə(r) ˈɡəʊɪŋ tu iːt miː, bət bɪˈfɔː(r)/

you eat me, I would like to hear you play the flute. I have heard that you can play the flute

/ juː iːt miː, aɪ wəd laɪk tə hɪə(r) juː pleɪ ðə fluːt . aɪ həv hɜːd ðæt juː kən pleɪ ðə fluːt /

better than anyone else, even the shepherd himself.”

/ˈbetə(r) ðən ˈeniwʌn els, ˈiːvn ðə ˈʃepəd hɪmˈself/ .”

The wolf was to pleased at this that he took out his flute and began to play.

/ðə wʊlf wəz tə pliːzd ət ðɪs ðæt hiː tʊk aʊt hɪz fluːt ənd bɪˈɡæn tə pleɪ/

When he had done, the lamb insisted him to play once more and the wolf played again

/wen hiː həd dʌn, ðə læm ɪnˈs ɪst hɪm tə pleɪ wʌns mɔː(r) ənd ðə wʊlf pleɪd əˈɡen/.

The shepherd and the dogs heard the sound, and they came running up and fell on the wolf

/ ðə ˈʃepəd ənd ðə dɒɡz hɜːd ðə saʊnd, ənd ðeɪ keɪm ˈrʌnɪŋ ʌp ənd fel ɒn ðə wʊlf/

and the lamb was able to get back to the flock.

/ ənd ðə læm wəz ˈeɪbl tə ɡet bæk tə ðə flɒk/
