Hi guys.. Here I will tell you about Telaga Warna, please read bellow!
Telaga Warna
Long long ago, there was a kingdom in West Java. The
kingdom was ruled by a king named His Majesty Prabu.
Prabu was a kind and wise king. But it was a pity that Prabu and
his queen hadn't got any children. The queen often cried. That was why Prabu went to the
jungle. There he prayed to God every day, begging for a child.
A few months later, the queen got pregnant. Nine months later, a
princess was born. Prabu and Queen loved
their beautiful daughter so much. They gave whatever she wanted. It made
Princess turn into a very spoiled
girl.
One
day, the princess celebrated her 17th birthday
party. Many people gathered in the palace. Then, Prabu took out a necklace which was made from gold and jewel.
"My beloved daughter, today I give you this necklace. Please,
wear this necklace," said Prabu.
"I don't want to wear it! It's
ugly!" shouted the princess. Then she threw the necklace. The beautiful necklace was broken. The gold and jewels
were spread out on the floor. Everybody couldn't say anything. They never thought that their beloved
princess would do that cruel thing. In their silence, people heard the queen crying. Every woman felt sad and began
crying, too. Then, everybody was crying. Then, there was a miracle.
Earth was crying.
Suddenly, from the underground, a spring emerged. It made
a pool of water. Soon, the place became a big lake. The lake finally sank the kingdom.
Nowadays,
people called the lake "Telaga
Warna". It means "Lake of Color". On a bright day, the lake is full of color. These colors come from
shadows of forest, plants, flowers, and sky around the lake. But some people said that the colors are from the
princess's necklace, which spreads at the bottom of the lake.
