The unicorn (from Latin unus 'one' and cornu 'horn') is a legendary creature.

Though the modern popular image of the unicorn is sometimes that of a horse differing only in the horn on its forehead, the traditional unicorn has a billy-goat beard, a lion's tail, and cloven hooves - these distinguish it from a horse.[1] Marianna Mayer has observed (The Unicorn and the Lake), "The unicorn is the only fabulous beast that does not seem to have been conceived out of human fears. In even the earliest references he is fierce yet good, selfless yet solitary, but always mysteriously beautiful. He could be captured only by unfair means, and his single horn was said to neutralize poison."

Hmm ako vam se ne da prevesti onda pročitajte samo ovo dolje.Ali ljepše je opisano na engleskom.

Njegov je mitološki izgled mnogim prirodnjacima iz minulih vremena izgledao sasma moguc: bijelo ili zagasito zuto krzno, vitko mišicavo tijelo, kratka razigrana griva, hitrina i cilost u pokretima i, ono najvaznije, poduzi uvrnuti rog koji izrasta iznad ociju...
Kada bi uistinu na našoj planeti zivjeli jednorozi, oni bi na nas, vjerojatno, ostavljali veoma prijatan utisak. Elegantna zivotinja laganog hoda, vitkog tijela, duge grive, ponosita vrata, plemenitih krupnih očiju... Hitra i neukrotiva. U svakom slucaju, jednorog zacijelo ne bi ni izdaleka izazivao onako čudenje, kakvo je, u vrijeme osvajanja Australije, u 18. stoljecu, izazivao kengur. Jer, ako se izuzme rog, jednorog je po svim ostalim tjelesnim karakteristikama, na ovim prostorima, uobicajna i vec videna zivotinja.
Tokom minulih stoljeca bilo je bezbroj pokusaja da se definitivno razjasni misterija zvana jednorog. No, sve je bilo uzalud: jednorog je izmicao svakom racionalnom objašnjenu!

Zanimljivo zar ne?Ja mislim da nije postojao ali mi je uz zmaja najljepša zapravo ne najljepša ali ono naj mistično biće...

Evo pjesma:
This is the creature there has never been.
They never knew it, and yet, none the less,
They loved the way it moved, its suppleness,
its neck, its very gaze, mild and serene.
Not there, because they loved it,
it behaved as though it were.
They always left some space.
And in that clear unpeopled space they
saved it lightly reared its head,
with scarce a trace of not being there.
They fed it, not with corn, but only with
the possibility of being.
And that was able to confer such strength,
its brow put forth a horn. One horn.
Whitely it stole up to a maid—
to be within the silver mirror and in her.
