Story of Telaga Bidadari (Fairy Pond)





Lake was not how wide and deep, approximately three meters long and two meters in width with a depth of two meters. The water is crystal clear, never dry even though the long dry season. It's on top of a ridge, in the shade, density, and shade trees, especially lime tree. If the lime trees were in flower, gathered the birds and insects suck the honey. On the surface soil was spread with the proliferation of similar plants, prasina name. Bluebird has a large bulb and can be made into a tasty and crisp taste. However, if it is less adept at processing can be toxic to people who eat it as intoxicating.
The area occupied by a handsome man, Awang Sukma name. He lived alone and did not have a wife. He became a ruler in the area. Therefore, he styled the data. In addition to good looks, he is also adept at blowing a flute. His songs touch the feelings of anyone who is listening.

Awang Sukma often harvest the birds if citrus trees are flowering and the birds coming to suck the honey. He put up the tree sap that has been cooked to attach the bamboo planks. Bamboo planks that have been given the sap is called sticky rice. Pulot was put on the sidelines of flower stalks. When birds perch, wing wings will be joined in the sticky rice. The more the bird struggled, the more closely attached to their wings. Finally, the bird flutters down to the ground with the blades of sticky rice. Then, Awang Sukma arrested and put in the basket. Typically, dozens of birds can be brought home. It is said that is why among the population, dubbed Sukma Awang Datu Datu Flute and Pulot.

However, one day the atmosphere was very quiet area. No birds and no one was interested in approaching insect Iimau flowers that are split.

"Surprisingly," Awang said Sukma, "it seems that toxic orange blossom so that the birds no longer want him." Awang Sukma not despair. Lying in the shade of linden trees, she sang beautiful songs by blowing the flute. Always the case that he was doing while keeping pulutnya wearing. Actually, with blowing the flute, he wanted to entertain myself. Because the rebound rhythm flute, longing for those he left behind a little relieved. That said, Awang Sukma is a newcomer from a distant land.

Awang Sukma transfixed by the rhythm of the flute. Gentle breeze caressing his hair makes him sleepy. Finally, the echo flute flute disappeared and was lying on his side. He fell asleep.

I do not know how long he was swept up dream, suddenly he was awakened by a noise startled wings that flap. He does not believe in the vision. -Swab rubbed his eyes.

Apparently, there are seven lovely young daughter fell from the sky. They flew toward the lake. Not long later, there was noise and laughter they bersembur-water spray.

"I want to see them up close," muttered Awang Sukma while searching for a place to tout that are not easy to know who is in the voyeur.

From the hideout, Sukma Awang can be looked at more clearly. Seventh daughter did not think when a pair of handsome man with a sharp eye to enjoy their bodies. Sukma Awang eyes stopped on their clothes scattered on the edge of the pond. Dress it up as well as a tool for them as they fly down to the lake and returned to their residence in heaven. They would have an angel who fell to Mayapada.

Satisfied bursts in the clear lake water, they were playing on the edge of the lake. It is said that their game is called surui ladies. They are fun to play so did not know Awang Sukma taking and hiding clothes one daughter. Then, the clothes it into a tube (the tube from the reeds used to cook lemang). Tube, he hid in kindai (rice granary store).

When the seventh daughter wants to wear clothes again, apparently one of them did not find his clothes. Sukma Awang deeds that made them panic. Princess is missing her clothing is the youngest daughter, the most beautiful coincidence. As a result, the youngest daughter can not fly back to heaven.

Confusion, fear, and resentment make the youngest daughter of helplessness. At that time, Awang Sukma out of his hiding place.

"My lady do not be afraid and sad," says Awang Sukma, "stay a while with me."

There is no excuse for the youngest daughter to refuse. Youngest daughter was living with Awang Sukma.

Awang Sukma felt that it was the youngest daughter of her match so she ask for her hand. Youngest daughter was willing to become his wife. They became a very harmonious couple, between good looks and beauty, wisdom and gentleness, in the bond of love. The fruit of their love was a princess named Kumalasari. Her face and her skin had inherited her mother's beauty.

Apparently it has been customary the world, nothing is eternal and immortal on this earth. What is hidden during this Sukma Awang finally smelled the smell.
That afternoon, Awang Sukma very deep sleep. He felt very tired after work. His wife sat beside the cradle of her daughter who was also asleep. At that time, a black chicken onto the barn. He scraped the surface of rice in the barn while squawking noisily. Rice were scattered on the floor.

Youngest daughter after him. Accidentally eyes stare at a black tube in the former chicken earlier. Tube youngest daughter took it because he wanted to know its contents. What shocked her heart after seeing the contents of that tube.

"Apparently, my husband who hid my clothes so I could not go home with my sisters," she said, clutching the clothes.

Youngest daughter struggled with feeling so up and down his chest. He feels exasperated, upset, cheated, angry and sad. Various flavor mingled with the love of her husband.

"I have to go back," he told himself.

Then, the youngest daughter wore it. After that, she was holding her daughter's not yet a year old. He hugged and kissed her weeping heart's content. Kumalasari wept. Cries the mother and child make Awang Sukma awake.

Awang Sukma was stunned when his wife looked at clothes. place to hide the clothes lying on the kindai. She realized that when the separation is not possible delayed again.

"Adinda be back," she said. "Kanda, guard our daughters, Kumalasari. If he missed his mother, Kanda take seven seeds walnut, put in the basket. Then, the basket Kanda-Shake shimmy. Lantunkanlah a flute song denganngan Kanda. Adinda will come see him. "

Youngest daughter was flying in the sky and disappeared leaving a beloved husband and daughter. Execution of his wife's message. How was longing to have buried his wife because they are unlikely to come together as usual. Kumalasari shed his love to his daughter.
That said, Awang Sukma swear and ban their offspring to maintain a black chicken which is considered a catastrophe for him.
