有一天，牧羊人赶着羊群回到羊圈里，其中有一只山羊失散了，并且拒绝回到羊群中。牧羊人费了好长时间叫她回来，既大声喊叫，又冲她吹口哨，但是山羊根本没注意到他。于是，牧羊人只得冲她扔了一块石头，正巧打断了山羊的一只羊角。惊慌中，牧羊人肯求山羊不要告诉主人，可山羊却说：“你这个愚蠢的家伙，即使我不说，我的角也会告诉他事实呀。”
【牧羊人和山羊的故事寓意】
牧羊人和山羊这篇短小的伊索寓言向我们说明了：竭力掩盖无法隐瞒的事实是没用的。
【牧羊人和山羊的英文版】
THE GOATHERD AND THE GOAT
A Goatherd was one day gathering his flock to return to the fold，when one of his goats strayed and refused to join the rest．He tried for a long time to get her to return by calling and whistling to her,but the Goat took no notice of him at all；SO at last he threw a stone at her and broke one of her horns．In dismay,he begged her not to tell his master：but she replied，“You silly fellow，my horn would cry aloud even if I held my tongue．”
It’s no use trying to hide what can’t be hidden．
