this tired.”

Narrator: “One day, he was visited by a giant.”

Buto ijo: “O little farmer, if you want a child, I will give you a child. However, with the condition that
when the child is six years old, it must be handed over to me to eat.”

Mbok srini : “Okay sir, I agree with the terms of the lord.”

Buto ijo: “These are cucumber seeds, take care of these seeds in your field.”

Narrator: “After two weeks, among the cucumbers he planted, there was one that was the biggest
and glistening like gold.”

Mbok srini: “Wow, this fruit is huge! All right, I’ll split the fruit carefully.”

Narrator: “Apparently, the contents of the fruit is a beautiful baby.”

because you come from a golden cucumber.”

Narrator: “A few moments later, a giant came to claim Mbok srini’s promise.”
Buto ijo: “O little farmer, I came here to collect on your promise of 6 years. Quickly hand over the
child! Now I really want to eat a boy.”

Narrator: “Because Mbok srini was very scared, she stretched out her promise.”

Mbok srini : “Well sir, I have a suggestion. Would you come here two years later? I’m sure, when it
gets older, this child will definitely be more delicious to eat.”

Buto ijo: “Mmm…. , your advice is also good. Alright, I will come here two years later to collect your
promise.”

sad, do you have a problem?”

Mbok srini : “No, my daughter. Mother has no problem. Let’s sleep, mother will tell you a fairy tale.”

Timun Emas : “Hooray, thank you mother.”

mother has prepared rice and fried salted fish in the kitchen. Don’t go anywhere, you’ll get lost.”

a creek. It turns out that the person is an ascetic.”

small packets, each of which contains cucumber seeds, needles, salt and shrimp paste to save your
child from the giant.”

Act 6

Narrator: “Mbok srini went home. When he got home, he told Timun Emas everything that had
happened.”

Timun Emas : “Mother, I am very afraid of being eaten by the Giant, and also I am afraid of parting
with mother.”

Mbok srini : “Oh, my daughter. Mother loves you very much and is afraid of losing you. Here, this
package mother gave you. Use this when you face the Giant. Before that, pray to the Creator to be
given protection from Him.”

Timun Emas : “Okay mother, I will try to follow your advice.”

Act 7

Narrator: “In the morning the giant came again to collect the promise.”

Buto ijo : “O little farmer, I came here to collect your promise! Quickly hand over the child, I really
want to eat it! Ha ha ha……”

Mbok srini : “My daughter, quickly run through the back door of our house!”

Timun Emas : “Okay mother.”

Narrator: “The giant was chasing him. Timun Emas remembered the package, so she spread the
cucumber seeds. It’s magical, the forest becomes a field of cucumbers full of fruit. The giants ate it
but the cucumbers actually added to the giant’s strength. Then the golden cucumber sprinkled
needles, in an instant bamboo trees grew very tall and sharp. With bloodied feet, the giant kept
chasing. Timun Emas opened the salt parcel and sprinkled it on him. Instantly the forest became a
vast ocean. With his pain the giant can pass. The last time Timun Emas finally sprinkled the shrimp
paste, immediately a sea of boiling mud was formed, finally the giant died.”

Timun Emas : “Thank you God, you have protected your servant”

Narrator : “Finally Timun Emas and Mbok Srini lived happily and peacefully.”
