A pig and a dog fighting about which of them give birth to more babies
(Aesop's Fables)
Translation ちいさな翻訳屋さん
Japanese ←→ Japanese & English ←→ English
A pig and a dog were fighting claiming that they give birth to more babies.
The dog said,
"I can give birth to babies in the shortest time out of all four-footed animals."
Then the pig said,
“It’s true that you can give birth to many babies in a short time, but all of your babies’ eyes haven’t been opened yet.”
It's not always true that you should finish work quickly.
It’s important that you complete work neatly.
