"Santiago," the boy said to him as they climbed the bank from where
the skiff was hauled up. "I could go with you again. We've made some money. The old man had taught the boy to fish and the boy loved him.
"No," the old man said. "You're with a lucky boat. Stay with them."
"Rut remember how you went eighty-seven days without fish and then we caught big ones every day for three weeks."
"I remember," the old man said. "I know you did not leave me because you doubted."
"It was papa made me leave. I am a boy and I must obey him."
"I know," the old man said. "It is quite normal."
"He hasn't much faith."

— Santyago, — dedi bola bog‘log‘liq qayiq turgan qirg‘oqdan yuqorilab ketgan yo‘l osha ko‘tarilisharkan,— endi yana sen bilan dengizga chnqishim mumkin. Hozir bir oz pul ishlab qo‘ydik. Chol bolani baliq oviga o‘rgatgan, shuning uchui ham bola uni yaxshi ko‘rardi.
— Yo‘q,— dedi chol,— sen baxti chopgan qayiqda ov qilyapsan. O’shanda qolganing ma’qul.
— Esingda bormi, bir vaqtlar rosa sakson yetti kun dengizga chiqib, qup-quruq qaytuvding, keyin ikkalamiz ketma-ket uch hafta kuniga katta-katta baliq ushlab keltirganmiz.
— Esimda,— dedi chol,— sen menga ishonmaganingdan ketganing yo‘q, bilaman.
— Otam majbur qildi. O’zim bo‘lsam, hali kichkinaman, shuning uchun ularning aytganini qilishim kerak.
— Bilaman,— dedi chol.— O’zi ham shunday bo‘lishi kerak.
— Otam bo‘lsa, uncha ishonqiramaydi.
