Malin Kundang

A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a

woman and her son lived. They were Malin Kundang and her mother. Her

mother was a single parent because Malin Kundang's father had passed away

when he was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.

Malin Kundang was a healthy, diligent, and strong boy. He usually

went to sea to catch fish. After getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or

sold the caught fish in the town.

One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant's ship

which was being raided by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant.

With his brave and power, Malin Kundang defeated the pirates. The merchant

was so happy and thanked to him. In return the merchant asked Malin

Kundang to sail with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang agreed. He left

his mother alone.

81

Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge

ship and was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he

had a beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship

landed on a beach near a small village. The villagers recognized him. The

news ran fast in the town, “Malin Kundang has become rich and now he is

here”.

An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She

was Malin Kundang’s mother. She wanted to hug him, released her sadness

of being lonely after so long time. Unfortunately, when the mother came,

Malin Kundang who was in front of his well dressed wife and his ship crews

denied meeting that old lonely woman. For three times her mother begged

Malin Kundang and for three times he yelled at her. At last Malin Kundang

said to her "Enough, old woman! I have never had a mother like you, a dirty

and ugly woman!" After that he ordered his crews to set sail. He would leave

the old mother again but in that time she was full of both sadness and

angriness.

Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a

stone if he didn't apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail.

In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was

wrecked and it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown

by the wave out of his ship. He fell on a small island. It was really too late for

him to avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a stone.

years old," said Buto Ijo. The farmers were so happy. They did not think about the

risk of losing their child letter and agree to take the offer. Later, Buto Ijo gave

them a bunch of cucumber seeds. The farmers planted them carefully. Then the

seeds changed into plants. No longer after that, a big golden cucumber grew from

plants. After it had ripe, the farmers picked and cut it. They were very surprised to

see beautiful girl inside the cucumber. They named her Timun Mas or Golden

Cucumber. Years passed by and Timun Mas has changed into a beautiful girl. On

her 17th birthday,

Timun Mas was very happy. However, the parents were very sad. They

knew they had to keep their promise to Buto Ijo the giant but they also did not

from the giant," said father. "What do you mean, Father? I don't understand," said

Timun Mas.

Right after that, Buto Ijo came into their house. "Run Timun Mas. Save

your life!" said her mother. Buto Ijo was angry. He knew the farmers wanted to

break their promise. He chased Timun Mas away. Buto Ijo was getting closer and

closer. Timun Mas then opened the bag and threw a handful of salt. It became sea.

Buto Ijo had to swim to cross the sea. Later, Timun Mas threw some chilly. It

became a jungle with trees. The trees had sharp thorns so they hurt Buto Ijo.

However, he was still able to chase Timun Mas. Timun Mas took her third magic

stuff. It was cucumber seeds. She threw them and became cucumber field. But

Buto Ijo still could escape from the field. Then it was the last magic stuff she had

in the bag. It was a shrimp paste or terasi. She threw it and became a big swamp.

drowning and died.

MALIN KUNDANG

A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a

woman and her son lived. They were Malin Kundang and her mother. Her mother

was a single parent because Malin Kundang's father had passed away when he

was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.

Malin Kundang was a healthy, diligent, and strong boy. He usually went to

sea to catch fish. After getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or sold the

caught fish in the town.

One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant's ship

which was being raided by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant. With

his brave and power, Malin Kundang defeated the pirates. The merchant was so

happy and thanked to him. In return the merchant asked Malin Kundang to sail

with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang agreed. He left his mother alone.

Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge ship

and was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he had a

beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship landed on a

beach near a small village. The villagers recognized him. The news ran fast in the

town; “Malin Kundang has become rich and now he is here”.

An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She was

Malin Kundang’s mother. She wanted to hug him, released her sadness of being

lonely after so long time. Unfortunately, when the mother came, Malin Kundang

who was in front of his well dressed wife and his ship crews denied meeting that

old lonely woman. For three times her mother begged Malin Kundang and for

three times he yelled at her. At last Malin Kundang said to her "Enough, old

woman! I have never had a mother like you, a dirty and ugly woman!" After that

he ordered his crews to set sail. He would leave the old mother again but in that

time she was full of both sadness and angriness.

Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a

stone if he didn't apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail.

In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was

wrecked and it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown by

104

the wave out of his ship. He fell on a small island. It was really too late for him to

avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a stone.

MALIN KUNDANG

A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a

woman and her son lived. They were Malin Kundang and her mother. Her mother

was a single parent because Malin Kundang's father had passed away when he

was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.

Malin Kundang was a healthy, diligent, and strong boy. He usually went to

sea to catch fish. After getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or sold the

caught fish in the town.

One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant's ship

which was being raided by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant. With

his brave and power, Malin Kundang defeated the pirates. The merchant was so

happy and thanked to him. In return the merchant asked Malin Kundang to sail

with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang agreed. He left his mother alone.

Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge ship

and was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he had a

beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship landed on a

beach near a small village. The villagers recognized him. The news ran fast in the

town; “Malin Kundang has become rich and now he is here”.

An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She was

Malin Kundang’s mother. She wanted to hug him, released her sadness of being

lonely after so long time. Unfortunately, when the mother came, Malin Kundang

who was in front of his well dressed wife and his ship crews denied meeting that

old lonely woman. For three times her mother begged Malin Kundang and for

three times he yelled at her. At last Malin Kundang said to her "Enough, old

woman! I have never had a mother like you, a dirty and ugly woman!" After that

he ordered his crews to set sail. He would leave the old mother again but in that

time she was full of both sadness and angriness.

122

Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a

stone if he didn't apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail.

In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was

wrecked and it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown by

the wave out of his ship. He fell on a small island. It was really too late for him to

avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a stone.
