Landorundun

This story comes from Tana Toraja, in South Sulawesi

(Celebes). Landorundum was a young beautiful girl with
long hair. One day she took a bath in the river, and
combed her hair. One of her hair was fallen, and when
she put it on the stone, the wind flew it to the river bank
and it reached the middle of sea
Landorunduns hair was glowing in the sunlight, and
an andventurer, Bendurana saw it from his ship. He
ordered his companions to take that hair, but all of them
came back wounded.
Bendurana then walked on water, took the hair
himself. He rolled the hair over his arm, and the hair
turned to be very long. When he wondered the origin of
the hair, a bird said to him where it came from. He
followed the flock of the birds, and finally dropped the
anchor to a stone, nowadays called Batu Sangkinan
Lembang.
Then Bendurana planted a mango tree, instantly grew
and had fruits.
He walked around the place and found a girl,
Landorundun. Bendurana asked Landorundun to marry
him, but she said her father Solokang and mother Lambe
Susu arent ready to be separated from her.

Then Bendurana walked away, but he kept stalking

Landorundun.
When Landorundun took a bath at the river, she saw
the mango tree that Bendurana had planted and picked
fruits. After she ate it, Bendurana asked her who ate his
mango, and Landorundun said the shepherd boys did it,
but they said Landorundun did. Finally Landorundun
surrended and agreed to marry Bendurana.
To trick her mother Lambe Susu, Bendurana gave her
a bottle with large hole on its bottom, and ordered Lambe
Susu to fill it with water. When she realized she had been
tricked, Lambe Susu just saw her daughter sailed away.
At their wedding ceremony, Landorundun wasnt
happy, and kept quiet. But when a man brought a crow
with invalid leg, she laughed seeing the crow jumping in
an odd way.

Terjemahan
Landorundun
Cerita ini berasal dari Tana Toraja, Sulawesi Selatan
(Sulawesi). Landorundum adalah seorang gadis muda
yang cantik dengan rambut panjang. Suatu hari dia
mandi di sungai, dan menyisir rambutnya. Salah satu
rambutnya jatuh, dan ketika dia meletakkannya di batu,

angin menerbangkannya ke tepi sungai dan mencapai

tengah laut
Rambut Landorundun yang bersinar di bawah sinar
matahari, dan andventurer, Bendurana melihatnya dari
kapalnya. Dia memerintahkan para sahabatnya untuk
mengambil rambut itu, tapi mereka semua kembali
terluka.
Bendurana kemudian berjalan di atas air, mengambil
rambut sendiri. Dia memutar rambut di lengannya, dan
rambut berubah menjadi sangat panjang. Ketika ia
bertanya-tanya asal rambut, burung berkata kepadanya
dari mana asalnya. Dia mengikuti kawanan burung, dan
akhirnya menjatuhkan jangkar untuk batu, saat ini
disebut Batu Sangkinan Lembang.
Kemudian Bendurana menanam pohon mangga,
langsung tumbuh dan memiliki buah-buahan.
Dia berjalan di sekitar tempat dan menemukan
seorang gadis, Landorundun. Bendurana meminta
Landorundun untuk menikah dengannya, tapi dia bilang
ayahnya Solokang dan ibu Lambe Susu tidak siap untuk
lepas darinya.
Kemudian Bendurana berjalan pergi, tapi ia terus
menguntit Landorundun.
Ketika Landorundun mengambil mandi di sungai, dia
melihat pohon mangga yang Bendurana telah menanam
dan mengambil buah-buahan. Setelah dia memakannya,
Bendurana bertanya yang makan mangga, dan
Landorundun kata gembala anak laki-laki melakukannya,
tetapi mereka mengatakan Landorundun lakukan.
Akhirnya Landorundun surrended dan setuju untuk

menikah Bendurana.
Untuk mengelabui ibunya Lambe Susu, Bendurana
memberinya botol dengan lubang besar di bagian
bawahnya, dan memerintahkan Lambe Susu untuk
mengisinya dengan air. Ketika dia menyadari bahwa dia
telah ditipu, Lambe Susu hanya melihat putrinya
berlayar.
Pada upacara pernikahan mereka, Lansorundun tidak
senang, dan diam. Tapi ketika seorang pria membawa
gagak dengan kaki yang tidak valid, dia tertawa melihat
gagak melompat dengan cara yang aneh.
