Ai um bicho!...

In its original version the story involves a gypsy. He had just stolen a chicken which he carried on his shoulders as he walked across the road.

On a turn, the owner jumps on him and says:

-So, you have stolen my chicken...

The gypsy, looking as aloof as he could, says:

-Chicken ... what chicken?

The owner points his finger at the chicken on the gypsy's shoulders and angrily says:

-That chicken which is on your shoulders!...

The gypsy, now looking even more aloof than before, looks over his shoulders and in a rapid mouvement lowers his arms and exclaims in horror:

-Ai um bicho!...
