Плииз переведите только без переводчика, а то сразу спалят, Once there was a wise old man. He could answer any question in the world. Everybody knew about him. One day two boys said, "We're going to fool that old man. We'll catch a bird, go to the old man and say, 'We are holding something in our hands. Is it alive or is it dead?' If he says, 'Dead,' we'll let the bird fly, and if he says, Alive,' we'll kill it."
They caught a bird and they carried it to the old man and they said, "We are holding something in our hands. Is it alive or is it dead?" And the wise old man looked at the young people and smiled. "It's in your hands," he said.

Они поймали птицу и принесли к старику, и сказали : "Мы что-то держим в руках. Это живо или мертво?" И мудрый старик посмотрел на молодых людей и улыбнулся. "Это в ваших руках", - сказал он.
(очевидно, обыгрывается фразеологизм "все в ваших руках" - т.е. это зависит от вас)
