Long time ago, lived an old women named Mbok Sirni. She lived by
herself because her husband had long passed away and she had no
children. Every day, she prayed so God would give her a child. One
night, when she was praying, a giant passed her house and heard her
pray. I can give you a child on one condition, the giant said to
Mbok Sirni, You must give the child back to me when it is six years
old. Mbok Sirni was so happy; she did not think about the risk of
losing the child later and agreed to take the giants offer. The giant
then gave her a bunch of cucumber seeds. Plant it around your
house. The giant then left without saying anything else. In the
morning, Mbok Sirni planted the seeds. The seeds grew within mere
days, and blossomed plentifully.Not longer after that, a big golden
cucumber grew from plants. Carefully, Mbok Sirni plucked the golden
cucumber and carried it home. With caution and care, she sliced the
cucumber. She was very surprised to see a beautiful baby girl inside
the cucumber. She then named the baby Timun Emas.
Pada zaman dahulu kala , tinggal seorang wanita tua bernama Mbok Sirni
. Dia tinggal sendirian karena suaminya sudah lama meninggal dan dia
tidak punya anak . Setiap hari , dia berdoa agar Tuhan akan memberinya
seorang anak . Suatu malam , ketika ia sedang berdoa , raksasa melewati
rumahnya dan mendengar doa nya . " Aku bisa memberimu seorang anak
dengan satu syarat , " kata raksasa kepada Mbok Sirni , " Anda harus
memberikan anak kembali ke saya ketika berusia enam tahun . " Mbok
Sirni sangat senang , dia tidak berpikir tentang risiko kehilangan anak
kemudian dan setuju untuk mengambil tawaran raksasa . Raksasa itu
kemudian memberinya sekelompok biji mentimun . " Tanamlah di sekitar
rumah Anda . " Raksasa itu kemudian pergi tanpa mengatakan apa-apa
lagi . Di pagi hari , Mbok Sirni menanam benih . Benih tumbuh dalam
beberapa hari saja, dan berkembang pesat . Tidak lama setelah itu ,
mentimun emas besar tumbuh dari tanaman . Dengan Hati-hati , Mbok
Sirni memetik mentimun emas dan membawanya pulang . Dengan hati-
hati dan perawatan , ia iris mentimun . Dia sangat terkejut melihat seorang
bayi perempuan cantik di dalam mentimun . Dia kemudian bernama bayi
Timun Emas.
Years passed by and Timun Emas has grew to become a lovely and
beautiful little girl. She was also smart and kind. Mbok Sirni loved her
very much. But she kept thinking about the time the giant would take
Timun Emas away from her. One night, Mbok Sirni had a dream. In
order to save Timun Emas from the giant, she had to meet the holy
man who lived in Mount Gundul. The next morning, Mbok Sirni took
leave of Timun Emas to go to Mount Gundul. The holy man then gave
her four little bags, each one containing cucumber seeds, needles,
salt, and shrimp paste. Timun Emas can use these to protect
herself, said the holy man to Mbok Sirni.
Beberapa tahun pun berlalu dan Timun Emas telah tumbuh menjadi
seorang gadis kecil yang lucu dan cantik. Dia juga cerdas dan baik. Mbok
Sirni sangat mencintainya. Tapi dia terus berpikir tentang waktu raksasa
akan mengambil Timun Emas darinya. Suatu malam, Mbok Sirni
bermimpi. Untuk mengamankan Timun Emas dari raksasa, dia harus
bertemu orang suci yang tinggal di Gunung Gundul. Keesokan paginya,
Mbok Sirni meninggalkan Timun Emas untuk pergi ke Gunung Gundul.
Orang suci kemudian memberinya empat kantong kecil, masing-masing
berisi biji mentimun, jarum, garam, dan terasi. "Timun Emas dapat
menggunakan ini untuk melindungi dirinya sendiri," kata pria suci itu
kepada Mbok Sirni.
A few days later, the giant came to see Mbok Sirni about her promise.
Mbok Sirni! Where is Timun Emas? shouted the giant. My
daughter, take these bag with you. It can save you from the giant.
Now, run through the back door, said Mbok Sirni. But the giant saw
Timun Emas running to the woods. The giant was angry. Starved and
enraged, he rushed toward Timun Emas. Mbok Sirni tried to stop him,
but the giant was unstoppable.
The giant was getting closer and closer, so Timun Emas opened the
first bag she got from Mbok Sirni. Inside the bag were cucumber
seeds. She threw the seeds, and instantly they grew into large
cucumber field. But the giant ate them all, giving him more strength.
As the giant was getting close, Timun Emas took the second bag
with needles inside and spilled the content behind her. The needles
turned into bamboo trees, sharp and thorny. The giants body was
scratched and bled. Aaargh, Ill get you, Timun Emas! shouted the
giant as he tried to get himself out from the bamboo field. He made it
and still chasing Timun Emas.
Raksasa itu semakin dekat dan lebih dekat, sehingga Timun Emas
membuka tas pertama yang dia dapatkan dari Mbok Sirni. Di dalam tas
adalah biji mentimun. Dia melemparkan benih, dan langsung mereka
tumbuh menjadi kebun mentimun besar. Tapi raksasa makan mereka
(mentimun) semua, memberinya kekuatan lebih. Dan raksasa itu semakin
dekat, Timun Emas mengambil kantong kedua dengan berisi jarum di
dalamnya dan menumpahkan jarum tersebut di belakangnya. Jarum
berubah menjadi pohon bambu, tajam dan berduri. Tubuh raksasa
tergores dan berdarah. "Aaargh, aku akan menangkap Kamu, Timun
Emas!" Teriak raksasa saat ia mencoba untuk membuat dirinya keluar dari
kebun bambu. Dia berhasil dan masih mengejar Timun Emas.
Timun Emas then reached the third bag and spilled the salt inside.
The ground which the salt touched turned into a deep sea. The giant
almost drown and had to swim to cross the sea. After some time, he
managed to get out from the water. Timun Emas saw the giant
coming, so she reached for the last bag. She took the shrimp paste
and threw it. The shrimp paste became a big swamp of boiling mud.
The giant was trapped in the middle of the swamp. The mud slowly
but surely drowned him. Helpless, he roared out, Help! Heeeeelp!
Then the giant drown and died. Timun Mas then immediately went
home. Since then, Timun Emas and Mbok Sirni live happily ever after.
