Once Gulliver reached an island with his companions. He sent a few of them to see if there was water on the island. But there was no water there. Suddenly his companions began to be chased by a huge creature. Luckily they all escaped. Now Gulliver was alone on the island. He quickly climbed up a steep hill with fields of barley on either side and the corn rising upto forty feet. There was a fence to pass from one field to the other. Gulliver could not climb them because every step was six feet high. Soon he saw a farmer in the next field. He too was a monster. He was accompanied by seven other monsters like him to reap the corn. Gulliver got frightened. He screamed loudly. But the monsters were kind to him. One of them picked him up and placed him on the ground. All the giant farmers came there to take a good look at him. Gulliver tried to speak to them in several languages but they could not understand him. The farmer took him to his house and gave him crumbled bread to eat. Soon his one year old son came and grabbed him and put his head into his mouth. Gulliver shouted loudly and the baby dropped him at once. He would have fallen and broken his neck but the farmer’s wife caught him in time. She put Gulliver on her bed and covered him with a handkerchief.

Gulliver’s Travels Summary In Hindi

एक बार गुलिवर अपने साथियों के साथ एक टापू पर पहुँचा। उसने कुछ साथियों को पानी की खोज में टापू पर भेजा। लेकिन वहाँ पानी नहीं था। अचानक किसी विशाल जीव ने उनका पीछा करना शुरू कर दिया। सौभाग्यवश वे भाग निकले। अब गुलिवर टापू पर अकेला रह गया। वह तेजी से एक सीधी खड़ी पहाड़ी पर चढ़ गया जिसके दोनों ओर जौ के खेत । थे और अनाज चालीस फुट तक ऊँचे थे। एक खेत से दूसरे खेत जाने के लिए मेड़ थी। गुलिवर उन पर नहीं चढ़ सका। क्योंकि प्रत्येक सीढ़ी छः फुट ऊँची थी। शीघ्र ही उसने दूसरे खेत में एक किसान को देख लिया। वह भी दैत्य ही था। उसके साथ सात और दैत्य थे जो फसल काटने के लिए वहाँ आए थे। गुलिवर भयभीत हो गया। वह चीख पड़ी। लेकिन सभी दैत्य उसके साथ दया-भाव दिखाए। उनमें से एक ने तो उसे उठा लिया और धरती पर रख दिया। सभी दैत्य किसान उसको अच्छी तरह देखने के लिए वहाँ आ गए। गुलिवर कई भाषाओं में उनसे बातचीत करने का प्रयास किया किन्तु उन्होंने उसकी भाषा नहीं समझी।।

किसान उसे अपने घर ले गया और उसे खाने के लिए रोटी के टुकड़े दिये। शीघ्र उसका एक साल का बेटा उसके पास आया और उसे पकड़कर अपने मुँह के अंदर रख लिया। गुलिवर जोर से चिल्लाया। उस बच्चे ने झट उसे छोड़ दिया। वह तो गिर ही जाता और अपनी गर्दन भी तोड़ लेता यदि किसान की पत्नी ने उसे ऐन वक्त पर पकड़ न लिया होता। उसने गुलिवर को अपने बिस्तर पर लिटा दिया और एक रूमाल से उसे ढंक दिया।

Class 5 English Chapter 2 Gulliver’s Travels Hindi Translation Of The Lesson

1. When a person tells the story of his life in his own words it is called an autobiography. Gulliver, a sailor, was once caught in the land of Giants. This is how he describes his experience. On the 16th of June 1730 we discovered land. Our captain sent a dozen men with vessels for water, if any could be found. When we came to land we saw no river or spring nor any inhabitants. I went on to explore. The country was barren and rocky. I turned back to join the crew, only to see them getting into the boat and rowing for life to get to the ship.
Word-Meanings—Sailor (ASR)-a person who sails a boat or ship, wilach i Giants (जायन्ट्स)–दैत्य। Discovered (डिस्कवर्ड)-found, पाया। Vessels (वेसेल्स)-pots, बर्तन। Explore (एक्सप्लोर)-search, खोजना। Barren (बैरन)-infertile, बंजर। Crew (क्रू)-members on a ship or boat, चालक दल। Rowing (रोइंग)—the act of moving boat, नाव चलाना।।
अनुवाद : जब कोई व्यक्ति अपने जीवन की कहानी को अपने शब्दों में कहता है तो इसे आत्मकथा कहा जाता है। गुलिवर, नामक नाविक एक बार दैत्यों के देश में पकड़ा गया। वह अपना अनुभव इस तरह से सुनाता है।
सोलह जून 1730 को हमने धरती का किनारा पता किया। हमारे कप्तान ने दर्जन भर लोगों को बर्तनों के साथ पानी की खोज में भेज दिया। जब हम धरती पर आए तो हमें वहाँ न तो कोई नदी दिखी, न कोई झरना और न ही कोई निवासी। मैं खोज में निकल पड़ा। वह देश बंजर और पथरीला था। मैं चालक दल के पास जाने के लिए मुड़ा और पाया कि सभी नाव में सवार हैं और जान बचाने के उद्देश्य से जहाज पर जाने के लिए नाव चला रहे हैं।

2. Before I could reach them I observed a huge creature walking after them in the sea as fast as he could. The water of the ocean reached only till his knees! However, the monster was unable to overtake the speeding boat. I turned back quickly and climbed up a steep hill with fields of barley on either side and the corn rising upto forty feet. There was a fence to pass from one field to the other.
Word-Meanings-Observed (ऑवज्ब्र्ड)-noticed, देखा। Huge (युज)–very big, विशालकाय। Monster (मॉन्स्टर)–giant, दैत्य, राक्षस। Steep (स्टीप)-vertical, सीधी खड़ी।
अनुवाद : उनके पास पहुँचने से पहले ही मैंने एक विशाल जीव को काफी तेजी से उनका पीछा करते हुए देख लिया। महासागर का पानी केवल उसके घुटनों तक ही पहुँच रहा था। फिर भी, वह राक्षस तेजी से चलती हुई उस नावे तक नहीं पहुँच पाया। मैं तेजी से पीछे मुड़ा और एक सीधी खड़ी पहाड़ी पर चढ़ गया जिसके दोनों ओर जौ के खेत थे। और अनाज चालीस फीट ऊँचे थे। एक खेत से दूसरे खेत जाने के लिए एक मेड़ थी।

3. It was impossible for me to climb because every step was six feet high. I was trying to find a gap in the hedge when I discovered one of the inhabitants in the next field walking towards the fence. He was of the same size as the creature chasing the boat. I was struck with utmost fear and astonishment and ran to hide myself. He called in a voice much louder than a trumpet. It sounded like thunder! Seven monsters like him came towards the field ready to reap the corn. They carried a reaping hook which was very big. When one of the reapers approached where I lay hidden I screamed as loud as I could. The creature stopped reaping, picked me up between his thumb and forefinger and brought me close to his eyes, sixty feet above the ground. He looked at me with curiosity and blew my hair aside to get a better view of my face.
Word-Meanings-Astonishment (एसटॉनिशमेंट)-surprise, आश्चर्य। Chasing (चेजिंग)-running after, पीछा करते हुए। Trumpet (ट्रम्पेट)—a musical instrument, तुरंही। Reap (रीप)—cut, काटना। Approached (अप्रोच्ड) came near, नजदीक आया। Screamed (स्क्रीम्ड)shout loudly, तेज चिल्लाया। Curiosity (क्यूरिओसिटि)-willing to know, जिज्ञासा।।
अनुवाद : मेरे लिए उस पर चढ़ना असंभव था क्योंकि प्रत्येक सीढ़ी छः फीट ऊँची थी। मैं झाड़ियों में खाली जगह खोजने का प्रयास कर रहा था जब मैंने दूसरे खेत में एक निवासी को मेड़ की तरफ आते देख लिया। वह भी उसी आकार का था जिस आकार का जीव नाव का पीछा कर रहा था। मुझे बहुत डर लगा। मुझे हैरानी भी बहुत हुई और मैं अपने को छिपाने के लिए दौड़ गया। उसने तुरही से भी ऊँची आवाज में मुझे पुकारा। यह बिजली की कड़क जैसी आवाज थी। उसकी तरह सात राक्षस फसल काटने के लिए खेत की ओर आए। वे सभी काटने वाली हँसिया लिए हुए थे जो बहुत बड़ी थी। जब फसल काटने वालों में से एक वहाँ पहुँचा जहाँ मैं छिपा हुआ था तो मैं काफी तेज चिल्लाया। वह जीव फसल काटना बंद कर दिया, मुझे अपने अंगूठे और प्रथम ऊँगली के बीच उठाया और अपनी आँखों के नजदीक लाया। वह जिज्ञासावश मुझे देखा और मेरा चेहरा ज्यादा अच्छी तरह देखने के उद्देश्य से फेंक मारकर मेरे बाल एक तरफ कर दिए।

4. He called his friends and gently placed me on the ground. They all sat on the ground to take a good look at me. I walked slowly backward and forward, pulled off my hat and made a low bow towards the farmers. I tried to speak to them loudly in several languages. Each time I did so the farmer who picked me up held his ear very close to me but in vain. The farmer took me to his house and placed me at some distance on the dining table which was thirty feet high from the floor.
Word-Meanings-Gently (जेन्टलि) softly, आहिस्ता से। In vain (इन वेन)–useless, बेकार।
अनुवाद : उसने अपने साथियों को पुकारा और मुझे आहिस्ता से धरती पर रख दिया। वे सभी मुझे अच्छी तरह देखने के लिए नीचे बैठ गए। मैं धीरे-धीरे आगे और पीछे चला, अपनी टोपी उतार ली और किसानों की ओर सिर नीचे झुकाकर प्रणाम किया। मैंने कई भाषाओं में जोर-जोर से उनसे बातचीत करने की कोशिश की। हर बार जब मैं ऐसा करता था वह किसान जिसने मुझे उठाया था अपना कान मेरे काफी नजदीक लाता था लेकिन कोई लाभ नहीं हुआ। वह किसान मुझे अपने घर ले गया और कुछ दूरी पर, रखे डाइनिंग टेबल, जो जमीन से तीस फीट ऊँचा था, पर रख दिया।

5. Dinner was brought for the farmer in a dish which was ten feet in diameter. The farmer’s wife crumbled some bread and placed it before me. In the middle of the dinner I heard a noise behind me. It was the purring of a cat that was ten times larger than an ox. The farmer’s wife was stroking him. Then entered the farmer’s one year-old son in the arms of a lady. On seeing me the child grabbed me from the table and put my head into his mouth. I shouted so loudly that the baby dropped me. I would have broken my neck if the mother had not held her apron under me. Later she put me on her own bed and covered me with a clean white handkerchief.
I slept dreaming of my home, my wife and my children.
Word-Meanings-Crumbled (क्रम्बल्ड)–broke into small pieces, छोटे-छोटे टुकड़ों में। Grabbed (ग्रेड) caught, पकड़ा।
अनुवाद : किसान के लिए भोजन एक थाली में लाया गया जिसका व्यास दस फीट था। किसान की पत्नी ने कुछ रोटी के टुकड़े-टुकड़े कर दिए और मेरे आगे रख दिए। भोजन के बीच में मैंने अपने पीछे एक आवाज सुनी। यह एक बिल्ली की आवाज थी जो बैल से दस गुणा बड़ी थी। किसान की पत्नी उसे प्यार से सहला रही थी। तब प्रवेश किया किसान का एक साल का बेटा, जिसे एक महिला बाहों में लिए हुई थी। मुझे देखते ही वह बच्चा मुझे पकड़ लिया और अपने मुँह में रख लिया। मेरी गर्दन ही टूट जाती यदि किसान की पत्नी अपना पल्ला मेरे नीचे न करती। बाद में उसने मुझे अपने बिस्तर पर रख दिया और एक साफ सफेद रूमाल से मुझे ढंक दिया। मैं सो गया अपने घर, अपनी पत्नी और बच्चों के सपने देखता हुआ।
