Lake Toba
Once upon a time, there was a fisherman lived in a North Sumatra. Don’t ask me the
year, all I know it was a very long time before you were born. When he was fishing in
a river, a big fish was nailed. This fish had gold color all over its body. It was
beautiful. The fisherman was very excited. He imagined a delicious dinner in his
head. He put the fish in his basket and went home happily.

When he got home, he put the fish in a sink. He grabbed a knife to kill the fish. But
when he almost killed it, he saw the fish eyes and felt pity. He took the knife away
and put the fish in washbasin and added water in it. “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t kill
you” the fisherman said.

The fisherman went fishing again. But this time he couldn’t get any fish. He went
home with nothing in his hand. His stomach started to sing. He walked home
slouching. He was surprised when he saw smoke came out from his kitchen.

“Who cooked in my kitchen?” he confused.

He took a peep and surprised when he saw a beautiful girl cooked in his house. “Why
there’s a girl in my kitchen?” he confused.

The fisherman entered the room. “Who are you?” he asked the girl.

“I’m the fish.” The girl said.

The fisherman looked the washbasin and saw nothing in it. “The fish?” he asked
incredulous.

“Yes. You didn’t kill me and I’m very thankful. I will return your kindness.” The girl
said.

“That’s ok. I didn’t ask any return” the fisherman said.

“But I have to.”The girl insisted.

“Well, I lived alone. I don’t have family. If you want to be my wife, I will be very
happy.” The fisherman asked the girl.

The girl smiled and said “I’d love to but you have to promise me that if we have kid
you can’t tell him about me.”

And so, the fisherman and the fish girl were married. And then they had a child called
Samo. Samo was very naughty. He couldn’t be advisable. He always played and never
helped his parents.

One day Samo was asked to deliver lunch to his father. On his way, he met his friends
and forgot to deliver his father’s lunch. Samo played with his friends. When he was
tired and hungry, he was resting under a tree and ate his father lunch. Meanwhile his
father waited him in starve and tired. His father went home and saw Samo played.
“Where is my lunch?” he asked.

“Mmm…mm.. I ate it” Samo said afraid.

“Why you ate it?” his father asked.

“Mmm..mm.. I was hungry after playing with my friend” Samo said.

“You were told to deliver my lunch but you didn’t listen.” his father was very furious.
“I can’t handle you anymore. You are very naughty. Go away from me. Don’t come
home anymore.” His father yelled and evicted Samo from his house.

And this what happened if you can’t control your mouth when you angry. His father
said the words that he wouldn’t suppose to say. “You… fish’s son.”

Suddenly, the sky was getting dark. The storm was breaking the ears. The rain felt
from the sky like giant hose sprayed water all over the place. And then the water came
out from the land and getting harder.

Sumo’s mother was very sad. “I told you don’t tell him about me” she said to her
husband. “Now I’m going back to be fish again. Good by” the mother was
transformed magically to be gold fish again and disappear through the water. The
water was getting higher and drown the village and formed a lake.

Meanwhile, sumo run to the hill and stayed there. The hill then was surrounded by the
lake.

Now the lake was known as Toba Lake. Toba came from Tuba word means no mercy.
And the hill in the middle called Samosir Island.

Ketika ia sedang memancing di sungai, ikan besar itu dipaku. Ikan ini memiliki warna
emas di seluruh tubuhnya. Itu indah. nelayan itu sangat bersemangat. Ia
membayangkan makan malam lezat di kepalanya. Dia meletakkan ikan di keranjang
dan pulang dengan gembira.
Ketika ia sampai di rumah, dia meletakkan ikan dalam bak cuci. Dia mengambil pisau
untuk membunuh ikan. Tetapi ketika ia hampir terbunuh itu, ia melihat mata ikan dan
merasa kasihan. Ia mengambil pisau itu dan menempatkan ikan di baskom dan
ditambahkan air di dalamnya. "Jangan khawatir, aku tidak akan membunuh Anda"
nelayan itu.
nelayan pergi memancing lagi. Tapi kali ini ia tidak bisa mendapatkan ikan apapun. Ia
pulang ke rumah dengan apa-apa di tangannya. Perutnya mulai menyanyi. Dia
berjalan membungkuk rumah. Dia terkejut ketika ia melihat asap keluar dari dapur.
"Siapa yang dimasak di dapur saya?" Dia bingung.
Dia mengambil mengintip dan terkejut ketika ia melihat seorang gadis cantik dimasak
di rumahnya. "Mengapa ada seorang gadis di dapur saya?" Bingung dia.
Nelayan memasuki ruangan. "Siapakah engkau?" Tanya dia gadis itu.
"Aku ikan." Kata gadis itu.
nelayan itu tampak wastafel dan melihat apa-apa di dalamnya. "Ikan?" Tanyanya tak
percaya.
"Ya. Anda tidak membunuh saya dan saya sangat bersyukur. Aku akan kembali
kebaikan Anda. "Kata gadis itu.
"Itu ok. Aku tidak meminta kembali apapun "nelayan itu.
"Tapi aku harus." Gadis itu bersikeras.
"Yah, aku tinggal sendirian. Saya tidak punya keluarga. Jika Anda ingin menjadi istri
saya, saya akan sangat senang. "Tanya nelayan itu gadis itu.
Gadis itu tersenyum dan berkata "aku ingin tapi kau harus berjanji padaku bahwa jika
kita punya anak Anda tidak bisa memberitahu dia tentang aku."
Maka, nelayan dan gadis ikan menikah. Dan kemudian mereka memiliki seorang anak
bernama Samo. Samo sangat nakal. Dia tidak bisa dianjurkan. Dia selalu bermain dan
tidak pernah membantu orang tuanya.
Suatu hari Samo diminta untuk memberikan makan siang kepada ayahnya. Dalam
perjalanan, ia bertemu teman-temannya dan lupa untuk memberikan makan siang
ayahnya. Samo bermain dengan teman-temannya. Ketika dia lelah dan lapar, ia
beristirahat di bawah pohon dan makan siang ayahnya. Sementara ayahnya menunggu
dia dalam kelaparan dan lelah. Ayahnya pulang ke rumah dan melihat Samo
dimainkan. "Di mana makan siang saya?" Ia bertanya.
"Mmm ... mm .. Saya memakannya "Samo kata takut.
"Kenapa kau makan itu?" Tanya ayahnya.
"Mmm .. mm .. Saya merasa lapar setelah bermain dengan teman saya "Samo kata.
"Kau sudah diberitahu untuk memberikan makan siang saya, tetapi Anda tidak
mendengarkan." Adalah ayahnya sangat marah. "Saya tidak dapat menangani Anda
lagi. Anda sangat nakal. Pergilah dari saya. Jangan pulang lagi. "Ayahnya berteriak
dan Samo diusir dari rumahnya.
Dan ini apa yang terjadi jika Anda tidak dapat mengendalikan mulut Anda ketika
Anda marah. Ayahnya mengucapkan kata-kata bahwa dia tidak akan rasa untuk
mengatakan. "Kau ... anak ikan."
Tiba-tiba, langit mulai gelap. Badai melanggar telinga. Hujan merasa dari langit
seperti selang raksasa disemprot air di semua tempat. Dan kemudian air keluar dari
tanah dan semakin sulit.
Sumo adalah ibu sangat sedih. "Saya bilang Anda tidak memberi tahu dia tentang
aku" dia berkata kepada suaminya. "Sekarang aku akan kembali menjadi ikan lagi.
Baik oleh "ibu berubah secara ajaib menjadi ikan emas lagi dan menghilang melalui
air. Air semakin tinggi dan menenggelamkan desa dan membentuk danau.
Sementara itu, sumo lari ke bukit dan tinggal di sana. bukit kemudian dikelilingi oleh
danau.
Sekarang danau itu dikenal sebagai Danau Toba. Toba berasal dari kata Tuba berarti
belas kasihan. Dan bukit di tengah yang disebut Pulau Samosir.
