CINDELARAS
Raden putra was the king of jenggala kingdom. He had a beautiful
queen and concubine. Unlike the queen , the concubine had bad personalities .
She was envious and jealous with the queen , so she planned to make the queen
leave the palace . The concubine then asked the royal healer to help her in her
plan . One day , the concubine pretended to be ill . Raden putra called the royal healer to give the
concubine treatments.”What is her disease ? “raden putra asket the royal healer
. “ i’m very sorry , my majesty .She is sick because the queen put poison in
her meal , “the royal healer lied
Raden putra was shock and angry to hear the explanation . he
called the queen and asked her if the story was true . Of course the queen
denied , but raden putra won’t listen . “please your majesty , have mercy . i
really didn’t do anything , “cried the queen in her tears . Raden putra ‘ s
anger ended in a dacision . The queen should be banished to the woods and
terminated . He did not know that the queen was already pregnant . Raden putra
commanded 0ne of his general to do the punishment .The queen was banished to
the woods , but the wise general didn’t have the heart to kill her . He built a
simple house in the woods for her . On his way back the palace , he smeared his
sword with rabbit blood , so raden putra would believe that he had killed the
queen .
After the general left, the queen lived by herselfin the woods,
several months later, she gave birth to a healthy baby boy. The baby was named
cinderalas. He grew up as a nice, healthy, and handsome boy. One day, while cinderalas
helped her mother to collect some fire woods, an eagle dropped an egg.
Cinderalas brought the egg to be brooded by a chicken behind their heir
house.the egg hatched into a chick and then it slowly became a strong rooster.
The rooster woke cindelaras up with its beautiful song, “ my master is
cindelaras, his house in the woods. He is yhe son of Raden Putra, “ The rooster
often sang that song.
Cindelaras always woke up early in the morningand listen happily
to his rooster’s song. He didn’t realize the meaning of the song until one day,
he started to thimk. “Who is Raden Putra?” he asked his mother. The queen then
told him the whole story. She also told him why they were banned from the
kingdom and lived in the woods. Cindelaras was very suprised. He decided to go
to the palace to meet the king, his father. Cindelaras asked her mother’s
permission to go to the kingdom and to tell the king what really happened. He
also bought his rooster that grew bigger and stronger each day.
On his way, cindelaras stopped at a village. There, he met some
people who were involved in cockfighting, they challenge him to see how strong
his rooster was. “if your rooster wins, you’ll get a reward,” said the man who
challenged him. Cindelaras accepted the challenge, in a few minutes, his
rooster defeated the opponent’s rooster. He was challenged again by other man,one
more time,his rooster won.Won again and again.
The news about cindelaras’rooster quickly spread to the whole
jenggala kingdom and made Raden Putra curious.So,he invited cindelaras to the
palace.”What is your name,boy?” Raden Putra asked as cindelaras arrived in the
palace . “My name is cindelaras,your majesty,”Cindelaras answered.He felt booth
thrilled and happy to see Raden Putra.
Raden Putra challenged cindelaras with one condition.if Raden
Putra’s rooster wonn,Raden putra would
be cut off.But if cindelaras’ rooster won,Raden putra would share half of his
wealth.Cindelaras accepted the condition.The competition was held in the front
yard of the palace.The too roosters frought bravelly.But in just a
munutes,Cindelaras’ rooster won the fight!Raden putra shook his head and stared
ar cindelarat from his seat,”That rooster is no ordinary rooster,and the boy is
not an ordinaty boy einter.Who is exactly?”he thought.Raden putra what about to
asked when suddenly cindelaras’ rooster sang the song,”My master is cindelaras
. His house is in the woods.He’s the son of Raden Putra.”
Raden putra was suprised.”is it true?”he asked.Yes,my majesty.My
name is cindelaras and my mother was the queen,”said cindelaras.Raden putra
called the general who had banished the queen.The general then confensed that
he never killed the queen.Later,the royal healer also admitted his mistake.Raden
putra was so shocked.He immediately went to the woods to pick up the queen.ever
