Once upon a time, there was a beautiful girl named Cinderella.

She lived with

her wicked stepmother and two stepsisters. They treated Cinderella very
badly. One day, they were invited for a grand ball in the king’s palace. But
Cinderella’s stepmother would not let her go. Cinderella was made to sew
new party gowns for her stepmother and stepsisters, and curl their hair. They
then went to the ball, leaving Cinderella alone at home.

Cinderella felt very sad and began to cry. Suddenly, a fairy godmother
appeared and said, “Don’t cry, Cinderella! I will send you to the ball!” But
Cinderella was sad. She said, “I don’t have a gown to wear for the ball!” The
fairy godmother waved her magic wand and changed Cinderella’s old clothes
into a beautiful new gown! The fairy godmother then touched Cinderella’s
feet with the magic wand. And lo! She had beautiful glass slippers! “How
will I go to the grand ball?” asked Cinderella. The fairy godmother found six
mice playing near a pumpkin, in the kitchen. She touched them with her
magic wand and the mice became four shiny black horses and two coachmen
and the pumpkin turned into a golden coach. Cinderella was overjoyed and
set off for the ball in the coach drawn by the six black horses. Before leaving.
the fairy godmother said, “Cinderella, this magic will only last until
midnight! You must reach home by then!”

When Cinderella entered the palace, everybody was struck by her beauty.
Nobody, not even Cinderella’s stepmother or stepsisters, knew who she really
was in her pretty clothes and shoes. The handsome prince also saw her and
fell in love with Cinderella. He went to her and asked, “Do you want to
dance?” And Cinderella said, “Yes!” The prince danced with her all night and
nobody recognized the beautiful dancer. Cinderella was so happy dancing
with the prince that she almost forgot what the fairy godmother had said. At
the last moment, Cinderella remembered her fairy godmother’s words and
she rushed to go home. “Oh! I must go!” she cried and ran out of the palace.
One of her glass slippers came off but Cinderella did not turn back for it. She
reached home just as the clock struck twelve. Her coach turned back into a
pumpkin, the horses into mice and her fine ball gown into rags. Her
stepmother and stepsisters reached home shortly after that. They were talking
about the beautiful lady who had been dancing with the prince.
The prince had fallen in love with Cinderella and wanted to find out who the
beautiful girl was, but he did not even know her name. He found the glass
slipper that had come off Cinderella’s foot as she ran home. The prince said,
“I will find her. The lady whose foot fits this slipper will be the one I marry!”
The next day, the prince and his servants took the glass slipper and went to all
the houses in the kingdom. They wanted to find the lady whose feet would fit
in the slipper. All the women in the kingdom tried the slipper but it would not
fit any of them. Cinderella’s stepsisters also tried on the little glass slipper.
They tried to squeeze their feet and push hard into the slipper, but the servant
was afraid the slipper would break. Cinderella’s stepmother would not let her
try the slipper on, but the prince saw her and said, “Let her also try on the
slipper!” The slipper fit her perfectly. The prince recognized her from the
ball. He married Cinderella and together they lived happily ever after.
Pada suatu ketika, ada seorang gadis cantik bernama Cinderella. Dia tinggal
bersama ibu tirinya yang jahat dan dua saudara tirinya. Mereka
memperlakukan Cinderella dengan sangat buruk. Suatu hari, mereka
diundang untuk pesta besar di istana raja. Tapi ibu tiri Cinderella tidak akan
membiarkannya pergi. Cinderella disuruh untuk menjahit gaun pesta baru
untuk ibu tirinya dan saudara tirinya, dan menggulung rambut mereka.
Mereka kemudian pergi ke pesta dansa, meninggalkan Cinderella sendirian di
rumah.
Cinderella merasa sangat sedih dan mulai menangis. Tiba-tiba, seorang ibu
peri penjaga muncul dan berkata, "Jangan menangis, Cinderella! Aku akan
mengirimmu ke pesta dansa! ”Tapi Cinderella sedih. Dia berkata, "Aku tidak
punya gaun untuk dipakai untuk pesta dansa!" Ibu peri penjaga itu
melambaikan tongkat sihirnya dan mengganti pakaian lama Cinderella
menjadi gaun baru yang indah! Ibu peri penjaga itu kemudian menyentuh
kaki Cinderella dengan tongkat sihir. Dan lihat! Dia punya sepatu kaca yang
indah! “Bagaimana aku akan pergi ke pesta dansa?” Tanya Cinderella. Ibu
peri menemukan enam tikus bermain di dekat labu, di dapur. Dia menyentuh
mereka dengan tongkat sihirnya dan tikus-tikus itu menjadi empat kuda hitam
mengkilap dan dua pelatih dan labu berubah menjadi pelatih emas. Cinderella
sangat gembira dan berangkat untuk pesta bersama pelatih ditarik oleh enam
kuda hitam. Sebelum pergi. ibu peri penjaga berkata, “Cinderella, sihir ini
hanya akan bertahan sampai tengah malam! Anda harus sampai rumah pada
saat itu! "
Ketika Cinderella memasuki istana, semua orang dikejutkan oleh
kecantikannya. Tidak ada seorang pun, bahkan ibu tiri atau saudara tiri
Cinderella, tidak tahu siapa dia sebenarnya dalam pakaian dan sepatu yang
cantik. Pangeran tampan itu juga melihatnya dan jatuh cinta pada Cinderella.
Dia pergi kepadanya dan bertanya, "Apakah kau ingin menari?" Dan
Cinderella berkata, "Ya!" Pangeran menari bersamanya sepanjang malam
dan tidak ada yang mengenali penari cantik itu. Cinderella sangat senang
berdansa dengan sang pangeran sehingga dia hampir lupa apa yang dikatakan
ibu peri itu. Pada saat terakhir, Cinderella teringat kata-kata ibu peri
penjaganya dan dia bergegas pulang. "Oh! aku harus pergi!” katanya dia
menangis dan berlari keluar istana. Salah satu sepatu kacanya terlepas tetapi
Cinderella tidak berbalik untuk itu. Dia sampai di rumah tepat ketika jam
menunjukkan pukul dua belas. Pelatihnya berubah kembali menjadi labu,
kuda-kuda menjadi tikus dan gaunnya yang halus menjadi lap. Ibu tirinya dan
saudara tirinya sampai di rumah tak lama setelah itu. Mereka berbicara
tentang wanita cantik yang telah menari dengan sang pangeran.
Sang pangeran telah jatuh cinta pada Cinderella dan ingin mencari tahu siapa
gadis cantik itu, tetapi dia bahkan tidak tahu namanya. Dia menemukan
sepatu kaca yang terlepas dari kaki Cinderella saat dia berlari pulang. Sang
pangeran berkata, “Aku akan menemukannya. Wanita yang kakinya cocok
dengan sepatu ini akan menjadi orang yang aku nikahi!” Keesokan harinya,
pangeran dan para pelayannya mengambil sepatu kaca dan pergi ke semua
rumah di kerajaan. Mereka ingin menemukan wanita yang kakinya cocok
dengan sepatu itu. Semua wanita di kerajaan mencoba sandal itu tetapi tidak
cocok dengan mereka. Kakak tiri Cinderella juga mencoba menggunakan
sepatu kaca tetapi kekecilan. Mereka mencoba meremas kaki mereka dan
mendorong keras ke dalam sandal, tetapi pelayan takut sandal itu akan pecah.
Ibu tiri Cinderella tidak akan membiarkan dia mencoba sandal itu, tetapi sang
pangeran melihatnya dan berkata, "Biarkan dia juga mencoba sandal itu!"
Pangeran mengenalinya dari pesta dansa. Dia menikahi Cinderella dan
bersama-sama mereka hidup bahagia selamanya.
