"Все когда-нибудь смотрели на звезды и, может быть, даже не один раз. Смотрели и наверняка задумывались, откуда же эти самые звезды взялись и почему мы порой засматриваемся на них? Так вот. Когда-то давным-давно на небе не было звезд, оно днем было голубым, а ночью – темным и почти непроницаемым для человеческого взора. В то самое время жила в Жемчужном озере прекрасная русалка. Много лет она беззаботно плавала в водной бездне озера, играла с живущими там же рыбами и другими русалками. Нужно сказать, что у русалок никогда не было никаких хвостов – все это выдумки. У русалок были такие же ноги, как и у людей, и они не только пели, но и танцевали по ночам на полянах возле озера. Жители ближайшей деревни говорили, что нельзя смотреть на танцующих русалок и боялись ходить к озеру с наступлением темноты. Люди верили, что если девушка посмотрит на поющих и танцующих русалок, то сама превратится в русалку, а если юноша – то суждено ему сгинуть в водной пучине. Однажды один паренек из деревни решил таки во что бы то ни стало посмотреть на русалок и, как только стемнело, пошел на поляну возле озера. Притаился он за деревьями и стал ждать появления русалок. Вскоре русалки в самом деле вышли из озера, затянули свою песню и начали танцевать. До самого утра они танцевали, а паренек не мог глаз оторвать. Однако с первым лучом солнца русалки начали возвращаться в озеро, и тут одна из них – та, что шла последней и была самой младшей – заметила спрятавшегося за деревьями паренька. Она никогда прежде не видела людей, но решила не говорить остальным русалкам о том, что видела. Да только с тех пор русалочка все время вспоминала о пареньке, все о чем-то грустила. Ей вдруг почему-то захотелось жить на земле, среди людей, а не в пучине озера среди рыб и русалок. И вот однажды она решила днем выйти из озера и пойти в ту сторону, в которую убежал паренек. Она так и сделала. Однако проходив целый день и целую ночь по лесу, она не нашла деревни и к тому же почувствовала, что не может больше без воды. Ей ничего не оставалось, как вернуться в озеро. И вот когда она вернулась, то увидела свет в окнах деревенских домов, и поняла, что деревня была совсем рядом, а она блуждала в другой стороне. Тут русалочку охватило чувство горечи и отчаянья, безысходности и собственной беспомощности – ведь она больше всего на свете хотела жить на земле, как люди, и именно этого не могла сделать - она заплакала и всплеснула воду руками. Однако капли воды не упали обратно в озеро, а застыли в небе и засветились, подобно свету в далеких окнах. Это несбывшиеся мечты русалочки и других зажглись на небе. С тех пор на небе появились звезды и луна, а каждая несбывшаяся мечта загорается новой звездой на небе. Вспоминайте об этом, когда любуетесь звездами."

 All ever looked up at the stars and maybe even more than once. Looked and probably wondered where did these same stars come from and why we sometimes stare at them? So. Once upon a time, the sky was the stars, it was blue in the afternoon, and at night - dark and almost impenetrable to the human eye. At the same time living in the Pearl Lake beautiful mermaid. For many years she happily swam in water depths of the lake, played with living in the same fish and other mermaids. It must be said that the mermaids have never had any tail - all this nonsense. Do mermaids were the same leg, as in humans, and they not only sang but also danced the night in the meadows near the lake. Residents of nearby villages said that you can not look at the dancing mermaids and were afraid to go to the lake at nightfall. People believed that if a girl looks at singing and dancing mermaids, then she will turn into a mermaid, and if a young man - that he was destined to disappear in the depths of the water. One day a boy from the village decided yet what whatever was to look at mermaids and as soon as it got dark, he went into a clearing near the lake. He hid behind the trees and waited for the appearance of mermaids. Soon mermaids really came out of the lake, have tightened their song and dance. Until the morning they danced, and the boy could not tear his eyes. However, with the first ray of the sun mermaid began to return to the lake, and then one of them - the one that was last and was the youngest - said the boy hid behind a tree. She had never seen people, but decided not to tell the rest of the mermaids that saw. Yes, but since then the little mermaid always thought of the boy, all about something sad. She suddenly for some reason wanted to live in the land among the people, rather than in the depths of the lake among the fishes and mermaids. And one day she decided to get out of the lake and go in the direction in which the boy ran away. She did so. However, the passage a day and a night in the forest, she found the village and also felt that he could not without water. She had no choice but to return to the lake. And when she came back, she saw the light in the windows of the village houses, and realized that the village was very close, and she wandered to the other side. Here Mermaid seized with a feeling of bitterness and despair, hopelessness and helplessness - she more than anything else wanted to live on the land, people, and this is what she could do - she cried and threw up the water with his hands. However, water drops do not fall back into the lake, and froze in the sky and lit up like a light in the distant windows. This unfulfilled dreams mermaid and other lit the sky. Since then, appeared in the sky the stars and the moon, and every unfulfilled dream lights up a new star in the sky. Remember this when admiring the stars
