 Malin Kundang

Suatu waktu , di pantai utara Sumatera tinggal seorang wanita miskin dan anaknya .
Anak itu bernama Malin Kundang . Mereka tidak mendapatkan banyak penghasilan,
memancing adalah satu-satunya sumber pendapatan . Malin Kundang tumbuh sebagai
seorang anak muda terampil . Dia selalu membantu ibunya untuk mendapatkan uang .
Namun, karena mereka hanya nelayan , mereka masih hidup dalam kemiskinan . " Ibu ,
bagaimana jika aku berlayar ke luar negeri ? " Suatu hari pinta Malin Kundang pada ibunya .
Ibunya tidak setuju tapi Malin Kundang telah mengambil keputusan . " Ibu , kalau aku tinggal
di sini , aku akan selalu menjadi orang miskin . Aku ingin menjadi orang yang sukses , "desak
Malin Kundang . Ibunya menyeka air matanya , " Jika kamu benar-benar ingin pergi , aku
tidak bisa menghentikanmu . Aku hanya bisa berdoa kepada Tuhan bagi kamu untuk meraih
sukses dalam hidup , " kata ibunya bijak . " Tapi , berjanjilah padaku, kamu akan pulang . "

Pada pagi berikutnya , Malin Kundang sudah siap untuk pergi . Tiga hari yang lalu , ia
bertemu salah satu awak kapal yang sukses . Malin ditawari untuk bergabung dengannya .
" jaga dirimu baik-baik , Nak," kata ibu Malin Kundang saat ia memberinya beberapa
persediaan makanan . " Ya , Ibu , " kata Malin Kundang . " Kamu juga harus melakukan
perawatan yang baik untuk dirimu sendiri . Aku akan tetap menghubungimu , " lanjutnya
sebelum mencium tangan ibunya . Sebelum Malin melangkah ke kapal , ibu Malin
memeluknya erat seolah-olah dia tidak ingin membiarkan dia pergi .

Sudah tiga bulan Malin Kundang meninggalkan ibunya . Sebagaimana yang telah
diduga ibunya , Malin tidak menghubungi dia lagi . Setiap pagi , dia berdiri di dermaga . Dia
ingin melihat kapal yang membawa Malin Kundang rumah . Setiap hari dan malam , ia
berdoa kepada Tuhan untuk keselamatan anaknya . Ada begitu banyak doa yang telah
diucapkan karena cintanya yang mendalam untuk Malin Kundang . Meskipun sudah satu
tahun ia tidak mendengar kabar dari Malin Kundang , dia terus menunggu dan berdoa
untuknya .

Setelah beberapa tahun menunggu tanpa kabar apapun, ibu Malin Kundang tiba-tiba
terkejut dengan kedatangan sebuah kapal besar di dermaga di mana ia biasa berdiri
menunggu anaknya . Ketika kapal akhirnya menepi , ibu Malin Kundang melihat seorang pria
yang tampak kaya melangkah menuruni tangga bersama dengan seorang wanita cantik .
Mata kaburnya masih mudah mengenalinya . Pria itu Malin Kundang , anaknya .

Ibu Malin Kundang dengan cepat pergi menemui anaknya tercinta . " Malin , kau
kembali , nak! " Kata ibu Malin Kundang dan tanpa ragu-ragu , dia datang berlari memeluk
Malin Kundang , " Aku sangat merindukanmu . " Tapi , Malin Kundang tidak menunjukkan
respon . Dia malu untuk mengakui ibunya sendiri di depan istrinya yang cantik . " Kau bukan
ibu aku . Aku tidak tahu Kamu . Ibuku tidak akan pernah memakai pakaian compang-
camping dan jelek seperti itu, " kata Malin Kundang sambil melepaskan pelukan ibunya .

Ibu Malin Kundang melangkah mundur , " Malin, kau tidak mengenali aku ? Aku
ibumu ! " Katanya sedih . Wajah Malin Kundang menjadi sedingin es . " Pengawal, ambil
perempuan tua ini keluar dari sini , " Malin Kundang memerintahkan pengawalnya . " Beri
dia uang sehingga dia tidak akan mengganggu aku lagi ! " Ibu Malin Kundang yang menangis
saat ia diseret oleh pengawal , " Malin , anakku . Mengapa kamu memperlakukan ibumu
sendiri seperti ini ? "

Malin Kundang mengabaikan ibunya dan memerintahkan awak kapal untuk berlayar
. Ibu Malin Kundang yang duduk sendirian di dermaga . Hatinya begitu terluka , dia
menangis dan menangis . " Ya Tuhan , jika dia bukan anak aku , semoga dia selamat di
perjalanan . Tapi kalau dia anakku, aku mengutuknya menjadi batu , " ia berdoa kepada
Tuhan .

Di laut yang tenang , tiba-tiba angin bertiup begitu keras dan badai datang . Kapal
besar Malin Kundang rusak berat . Ia dilemparkan oleh gelombang dari kapalnya , dan jatuh
di sebuah pulau kecil . Tiba-tiba , seluruh tubuhnya berubah menjadi batu . Dia dihukum
karena tidak mengakui ibunya sendiri .

Malin Kundang

Once upon a time, on the north coast of Sumatra lived a poor woman and his son.
The boy was called Malin Kundang. They didnt earn much as fishing was their only source of
income. Malin Kundang grew up as a skillful young boy. He always helps his mother to earn
some money. However, as they were only fishermans helper, they still lived in poverty.
Mother, what if I sail overseas? asked Malin Kundang one day to his mother. Her mother
didnt agree but Malin Kundang had made up his mind. Mother, if I stay here, Ill always be
a poor man. I want to be a successful person, urged Malin kundang. His mother wiped her
tears, If you really want to go, I cant stop you. I could only pray to God for you to gain
success in life, said his mother wisely. But, promise me, youll come home.

In the next morning, Malin Kundang was ready to go. Three days ago, he met one of
the successful ships crew. Malin was offered to join him. Take a good care of yourself,
son, said Malin Kundangs mother as she gave him some food supplies. Yes, Mother,
Malin Kundang said. You too have to take a good care of yourself. Ill keep in touch with
you, he continued before kissing his mothers hand. Before Malin stepped onto the ship,
Malins mother hugged him tight as if she didnt want to let him go.

It had been three months since Malin Kundang left his mother. As his mother had
predicted before, he hadnt contacted her yet. Every morning, she stood on the pier. She
wished to see the ship that brought Malin kundang home. Every day and night, she prayed
to the God for her sons safety. There was so much prayer that had been said due to her
deep love for Malin Kundang. Even though its been a year she had not heard any news from
Malin Kundang, she kept waiting and praying for him.

After several years waiting without any news, Malin Kundangs mother was suddenly
surprised by the arrival of a big ship in the pier where she usually stood to wait for her son.
When the ship finally pulled over, Malin Kundangs mother saw a man who looked wealthy
stepping down a ladder along with a beautiful woman. She could not be wrong. Her blurry
eyes still easily recognized him. The man was Malin Kundang, her son.

Malin Kundangs mother quickly went to see her beloved son. Malin, youre back,
son! said Malin Kundangs mother and without hesitation, she came running to hug Malin
Kundang, I miss you so much. But, Malin Kundang didnt show any respond. He was
ashamed to admit his own mother in front of his beautiful wife. Youre not my Mother. I
dont know you. My mother would never wear such ragged and ugly clothes, said Malin
Kundang as he release his mother embrace.

Malin Kundangs mother take a step back, MalinYou dont recognize me? Im your
mother! she said sadly. Malin Kundangs face was as cold as ice. Guard, take this old
women out of here, Malin Kundang ordered his bodyguard. Give her some money so she
wont disturb me again! Malin Kundangs mother cried as she was dragged by the
bodyguard, Malin my son. Why do you treat your own mother like this?

Malin Kundang ignored his mother and ordered the ship crews to set sail. Malin
Kundangs mother sat alone in the pier. Her heart was so hurt, she cried and cried. Dear
God, if he isnt my son, please let him have a save journey. But if he is, I cursed him to
become a stone, she prayed to the God.

In the quiet sea, suddenly the wind blew so hard and a thunderstorm came. Malin
Kundangs huge ship was wrecked. He was thrown by the wave out of his ship, and fell on a
small island. Suddenly, his whole body turned into stone. He was punished for not admitting
his own mother.
