Jaka Tarub and Seven Fairies

Once upon a time there was a hunter who lived in the village of Dadapan. His name is
Jaka Tarub. Dadapan village was close to a wood so Jaka Tarub liked to go to the wood. He
liked hunting for animals with his blowpipe.
One day when he was in the wood he saw a beautiful rainbow and he saw seven
Fairies went down through it. He came closer and searched for them. The seven fairies were
swimming and taking a bath in a lake. Joko Tarup looked at them while hiding behind trees.
When they had finished taking a bath, they flew through the rainbow to the heavenly
kingdom of kahyangan.
The next day he saw the same thing again. This time he peeped through the bushes.
Jaka Tarub saw a scarf near the bushes. It belonged to one of the fairies. Jaka Tarub then took
it and hid it.
Crack!!!
Accidentally, Jaka Tarub stepped on a twig.
Theres someone! said one of the fairies.
Lets get back. Hurry! she said. They pulled over and wear their scarf.
Where is my scarf? one of the fairies couldnt find her scarf. She was the youngest fairy
called Nawang Wulan. They tried to search for it, but it was no where to be found.
Were sorry, Wulan. We have to go back to kahyangan, said the eldest fairy.
Youll have to find it by yourself. Well wait for you in kahyangan, she said in empathy.
The other fairies then flew to the sky leaving Nawang Wulan behind. Nawang Wulan saw
them leaving in tears. She was so sad.
Jaka Tarub saw Nawang Wulan cried beside the river, then Jaka Tarub asked Nawang
Wulan.
Excuse me , said Jaka Tarub, startling Nawang Wulan.
Are you okay? he asked.
Nawang Wulan moved backward,
Who are you? she asked
My name is Jaka Tarub. I was passing by and I heard you crying, so I came to see what
happen, Jaka Tarub lied. Nawang Wulan then told him about her problem.
I cant fly without my scarf, she said.
Scarf? Are you a fairy? Jaka Tarub Surprise.
Yeah.. Im a fairy, and now I cant fly to Kahyangan. I dont know what should I do. I dont
have anyone here Nawang Wulan said.
Dont worry Nawang Wulan, I will help you. Maybe you can stay with me in my little hut
said Jaka Tarub to Nawang Wulan.

Jaka Tarub then asked Nawang Wulan to come home with him. At first, Nawang Wulan
refused the offer. But since she didnt have anywhere else to go, Nawang Wulan then decided
to follow Jaka Tarub. Nawang Wulan stayed with Jaka Tarub in the village.
A month passed, and they decided to get married. Nawang Wulan was willing to
marry a human because she fell in love with Jaka Tarub. After a year, they had a beautiful
daughter. They named her Nawang Asih. They lived happily. Jaka Tarub was also happy to
live with Nawang Wulan and Nawang Asih. Especially because he always got a lot of
harvest since he married Nawang Wulan. He couldnt even keep all of his harvest in the barn
because it was always full.
One day Jaka Tarub was so curiously about his wife habits.
Its so weird. Nawang Wulan cooked everyday, but why is my barn always full, Jaka Tarub
mumbled to himself. He was so curious. One day, Jaka Tarub stayed at home.
I want to stay home today. Id like to play with Nawang Sih, he said to his wife.
Well, Ill go to the river to wash the clothes. Please keep an eye on Nawang Sih,, asked
Nawang Wulan.
Im cooking rice now. Please do not open the pan cover before its done, she said just
before she left.
Could this be the secret? Jaka Tarub thought. After Nawang Wulan left, he curiously
opened the pan cover. He found only one single paddy.
How come? he wondered.
Before lunch, Nawang Wulan came home. She headed to the kitchen to see the rice she had
cooked. She found that the rice turned into only a few grains.
Did you open the pan cover? she asked her husband.
I Im sorry. I was curious, Jaka Tarub said as he realized his fault.
Ever since, Nawang Wulan had lost her power. She couldnt cook rice with only a single
paddy. Their paddy supply was slowly lessened. Their barn was almost empty
One day, Nawang Wulan went to the barn to get some paddy. When she took one of them,
she found a scarf.
Whats this? This is my scarf, said Nawang Wulan startled.
That night, Nawang Wulan asked her husband about the scarf. Jaka Tarubs eyes widened,
You found it? he asked. Jaka Tarub looked down and asked for her forgiveness.
Because Ive found my scarf, its time for me to go back to where I belong, Nawang Wulan
said.
Jaka Tarub tried to stop her, but Nawang Wulan had made up her mind.
Please take good care of Nawang Asih, she said.

If she wanted to see me, take seven grains of candlenut and put it into a basket. Shake it as
you play the bamboo flute. Ill come to see her, she explained.
Jaka Tarub promised to take good care of their daughter. He once again asked for forgiveness
for all of his mistakes.
Ive forgiven you, so you dont have to feel guilty. I must go now. Take care, said Nawang
Wulan as she flew to the bright full moon.
Moral Value:
If we want something we must do it in the right way, we should not have to take the
right or property of other people because one day we will get punished.
