B. inggris Once upon a time there was an old couple who didn’t have
a child. They lived in a small house near the village forest. “Please
give us a child,” they asked God everyday.
One day, from the household Shinto altar, they heard a cute
cry, “Waa! Waa!”
They looked and saw a crying baby who looked just like a
little figer. “This child must be a gift from God. Thanks to God!”
“We will call this child ‘Issumboshi’,” they said.
They raised Issumboshi with much care, but Issumboshi
never grew bigger.
“Hey, Issumboshi, do you want to be eaten by a frog?”
Issumboshi was always being bullied by the children of the village
and often went home feeling unhappy.
Grandmother would make some big rice balls and encourage
him. “Eat a lot, and grow up quickly,” Grandmother said.
One day, Issumboshi said, “I will go to the capital to study and
become a respectable person. Then I will come back.” Grandfather
and Grandmother were worried about him, but Issumboshi’s mind
would not be changed. At once they began to prepare for his trip.
Issumboshi sheathed a needle sword in a straw case, put
on a cup for a sedge hat, and started out with a chopstick staff, in
high spirits.
“I’m going now,” Issumboshi said.
“Is he safe? With such a small body?” Grandfather and
Grandmother asked as they saw him off.
Issumboshi went on the trip with a big wish in a small body.
… … …
At last Issumboshi reached the capital city and anchored
under the bridge. Then he climbed up to the railing and viewed the
town.
“There is a fie palace over there. I shall ask them at once.”
At long last Issumboshi arrived at the palace.
“Excuse me, but I want to meet the feudal lord.”
The lord came to the door, “What? Who’s there?”
“Here I am, at your feet.”
“Oh. How small! Why do you want to meet me?”
“Please let me be your retainer.”
“I wonder if your very small body can do anything.”
“I’ll stay in your pocket and guard you from all harm.” When
Issumboshi said so, a bee came buzzing by. “Yhaa!” Issumboshi
yelled, stabbing the bee.
“Bravo! I employ you. It would be good if you became the
Princess’s man.”
“Oh! What a cute fellow he is!” said the Princess, putting
Issumboshi on her palm.
“I will defend you upon my life,” said Issumboshi.
The Princess liked Issumboshi, and she taught him reading,
writing, and various studies. Further, Issumboshi practiced fencing
very hard in order to be strong.
One day the Princess went out to worship at the Kiyomizu
Temple. Suddenly there was a strong wind, and some demons
appeared. The leader of the demons tried to grab the Princess.
“Help me!” she screamed. Issumboshi tried to help her, but the
demon caught him and threw him into his mouth. Issumboshi,
who was swallowed, jabbed and jabbed the demon’s stomach. The
demon rolled over and spat out Issumboshi.
Issumboshi jumped at the demon and stabbed his eyes. The
remaining demons were frightened. They ran away in great haste,
but one demon, who was left behind, trembled while holding the
magic hammer.
“Do you want me to stab your eyes, too?” Issumboshi asked.
“Please, don’t. This is the magic hammer that will grant you
a wish. I give it to you, so please spare me.” And saying this, he ran
off in a hurry.
“Thank you, Issumboshi. You have saved my life,” the
Princess said.
“Princess, please wave this magic hammer and make a wish
that I may become big,” said Issumboshi. The Princess waved it
and asked, “May Issumboshi become big!”
And then, strangely, before her eyes, Issumboshi began to
grow. He grew into a nice young man. They went back to the palace,
and the Princess asked the King to let her marry Issumboshi.
The Princess and Issumboshi then got married, and they
invited Grandfather and Grandmother to live with them in the
palace. They lived happily ever after.
