Bald boy got the gold and when he was on his own way he saw a group of people beating up a cat. He said “take this piece of gold and stop beating him”. He rescues the cat and he and cat start to walk again. A while later, he saw couple of people beating up a dog. He again said “stop it, what are you doing?” and he saves the dog as well.
And then he continues to walk along with a dog and cat. When he almost has got near by to the town, he saw a crowd again and he saw woodchoppers trying to kill a snake. He could not able to stop himself again and says: “take this piece of gold and let him go.” And he also saves the snake.
The snake said: “The son of the Adam, I am the son of the snake emperor. I had argued with my dad and I hide over here. But they found me. I wanted to go back to my dad and if you want you can come along with me. Bald boy decided to go with the snake and soon after they introduce themselves to the snake emperor. Snake emperor feels so happy to see his son again and he wants to give a reward to the bald boy and he says: “make a wish, anything you want to” and at that moment prince snake whisper in his ear and says “ask him to give the seal under his tongue” and Bald boy says : “ I want your seal”
The emperor says that you ask for my most precious treasure. I am gonna give it to you because you saved my son. He says that whatever he wishes his wishes will become true with this seal and gives it to the bald boy. Bald boy got the seal, the dog and the cat and go back to his house. When his mother sees that he did not bring home nothing but a dog and cat she gets mad at him.
The day after bald boy says his mother and says go and ask for emperor’s young daughters’ hand. His mother says that, he would not give his daughters’ hand to you. But bald boy was so insist and she eventually went to the palace to ask for emperors’ daughters’ hand.
Emperor says if you build a big palace just across my palace then I can say okay. His mother returns back to home and tells what emperor wants from them.
Bald boy says: no worries, I can do it in five minutes. And he asks the seal to make a big palace. When emperor gets up the day after and sees the big palace built in a night he has to give his permission to him.
Bald boy moved into his new palace and he put his seal to the best place in it. One day in the absence of bald boy, some one comes to the home as a bead seller who is aware of the seal and he tries to sell beads to bald boys’ wife. His wife says that she does not have any money and this con man says you do not need to give me any money, you can get whatever you want to trade that seal as an exchange he says. Wife says ok and gives to bead seller and gives seal to him. He got the seal and cross the lake just right after. The palaces fall apart right away. The emperor takes her daughter back as well. When bald boy come back to the home with the cat and the dog and see what happened he feels so unhappy and feels so sad.
Cat says. I can find the seal but I can not get across the lake. Dog says, I can swim through lake and you can sit on me. They do that, and come to the man’s house. When they arrive to the home dog waited in front of the house and the cat catches a mouse and put hot pepper to the his tale. Later on he walked in and he put the mouse’s tale into the man’s nose. Therefore, the man sneezes and the seal under his tongue fall off. The cat catches the seal and along with the dog they run to the lake. The dog start swimming back to their place but in the middle of the lake cat drops the seal from his mouth and a fish swallow the seal. This time dog gets the responsibility and they both went to the fish market. The dog sniffs each fish and find out which one has the seal and show it to the bald boy. Bold boy buys that fish right away and they return back to their house.
Bald boy gets back his palace and his wife and for the honor of this new start he makes celebrities for 40 nights and 40 days.
Once upon a time there was a bald boy; his mother calls him baldy boy. One day he asked his mother’s permission to go to the fishing. He thought that he might be his lucky day and he can catch couple of fishes so they can have a nice meal.
He went by the river and he threw his hook into the river. By the noon he caught a big fish. This fish was so pretty. Its scales were as bright as silver, its eyes were as bright as a glass…
Bald boy cleaned its scales, he split it in two pieces and he saw there is a huge cup in its stomach. He felt so happy and so lucky and he thought that I will bring my mother both of them: the fish and the cup.
He filled the cup with water and he wanted to clean the fish. And then something unnatural happened. The water that he has been poured from the cup becomes gold. He could not believe it to his eyes and he tried couple of times. This might be a magic cup. He said I have to let my mother know about it to himself and run to his home.
Later on he tried it again and he filled the magic cup with water and emptied and every time he emptied all the water became gold. After a while, he was the richest person on this town. He was even wealthier than the emperor. A Couple of days after, he built a big palace to himself and he hired maids. He was able to buy everything he wanted and everything he would like to eat. At the end though, he became a bit naughty and spoiled. He started to spend his money on unnecessary things and he even did not consider his mother who advised him to be careful and be wise. He was saying that “I’ve got the magic cup and I can do whatever I want to”.
When the bald bay dramatically changed, become a spoiled and a greedy person, people around him start to talk about his behavior and lost their respect toward him and they said that they do not like him anymore.
One day, bald boy went by the river again and he said water in the river would not go less and I can build another palace to myself. His pride and greed makes him act like crazy. He was not even thinking anything else anymore. And all a sudden the magic cup fell into the river and bald boy try to catch it and he also fell of into the river. He was almost drowned. Eventually he saved his own life and able to make it shore but unfortunately all the gold he saved by the river stolen by thieves.
Magic cup was missing and bald boy felt that there is no way to find it anymore. He went to his mother told her what happened while he was crying.
His mother said: “Do not worry my son. Something comes from nothing it goes to nothing. You did not earn that cup with your effort. On the top of it you become so spoiled as a result of having it. This is much better for you. At least you are not going to look people down anymore.”
Bald boy agreed on those words and from that day on he never mentioned about the magic cup.
Güneş ve rüzgâr kimin daha güçlü olduğunu tartışıyorlarmış. Rüzgâr
-Ben daha güçlü olduğumu kanıtlayacağım. Şu karşıdaki paltolu yaşlı adamı görüyor musun ? Paltosunu senden daha hızlı çıkaracağıma bahse girerim
Demiş. Güneş bir bulutun arkasına çekilmiş ve rüzgâr kasırga şiddetinde esmeye başlamış. O kuvvetle estikçe ihtiyar adam paltosuna daha sıkı sarılıyormuş.
Sonunda rüzgâr pes edip durmuş. Güneş bulutların arkasından çıkıp yaşlı adama nazikçe gülümsemiş. Çok geçmeden adam alnındaki teri silip paltosunu çıkarmış.
Sonra , rüzgâra dönmüş nazik ve dostça davranışın, şiddet ve güç gösterisinden daha etkili olduğunu söylemiş.
-Çabuk benim hayvanımı bulun, yoksa karışmam! Diye bağırmaya başlamış. Herkesi bir telaş , bir korkudur almış. Eşeği aramak için dört bir tarafa dağılan Akşehirliler , yolda Hoca’ya rastlamışlar:
-Aman Hocam, bize yardım et. Yolda sahipsiz bir eşek bulursan hemen yakala n’olur.
-Eşek kimin?
-Subaşının. Demişler.
Hoca da: “Peki ararım” demiş ve türkü söyleye söyleye yolunu sürdürmüş. Karşısına çıkan bir köylü :
-Hocam, böyle türkü söyleyerek ne yapıyorsun? Deyince ,
Hoca:
-Subaşının kaybolan eşeğini arıyorum! Demiş. Adam , yine sormuş:
-Peki , böyle türkü söyleyerek eşek mi aranır a Hoca?
