Title |
Northwind and the sun |
Description |
This is a freestyle re-telling of the classic folktale "The Northwind and the sun". It is told by Kasimirus Gebze, a male speakers in his fifties, who grew up and lived most of his life in Wanam. In preparation for the storytelling he was given Indonesian version. He then told the story in Yelmek. It is not a translation.
In the story, the Northwind and the sun are having an argument about who is stronger. They decide to test their strength on a man who passes at that moment. The winner will be whoever manages to take the coat of the man. The nOrthwind blows at the man, but that only makes him tighten his coat further. Then the sun shines brightly down at the man and he takes his coat off because he is too warm. The sun is declared the winner. |
