      Well, poor bird-she should have known that  your song must be your own. That's why I sing with panache. Though an excellent and naturally talented singer the nightingale is, she is called a poor singer and stupid animal by the frog. Write a paragraph on the topic "The nightingale lacks worldly Wisdom."         

    Answer:

                      'The Nightingale Lacks Worldly Wisdom' In today's world, it is required to have worldly wisdom, otherwise a person has to face the circumstances as the nightingale faces. She is a sweet creature. She sings beautifully, but she easily comes under the influence of the stupid frog. Due to lack of worldly wisdom, she is easily befooled by a creature like the frog, who doesn't possess any singing talent. Gullible as the nightingale is, she believed that the frog seem to be a great authority on music. She does not use her mind and works only according to the instructions of the frog, who earns money by her talent. He starts torturing her and the nightingale becomes sorrowful and pale. Had she shown a better sense of self-confidence she would not have been exploited by the dominating frog and her life could have been saved.
