 STRONG WIND
Once there was a great warrior named Strong Wind. He lived with his sister in a
tent by the sea. Strong Wind was able to make himself invisible. His sister could
see him, but no one else could. He had said he would marry the first woman who
could see him as he came at the end of the day.
Many women came up to his tent to watch for him. When his sister saw him
coming, she would ask, “Do you see him?”
Each girl would answer, “Oh, yes! I see him!”
Then Strong Wind’s sister would ask, “What is he pulling his sled with?”
And then the girls would answer, “with a rope” or “with a wooden pole.”
Then Strong Wind’s sister would know that they were lying, because their
guesses were wrong.

A chief lived in the village. His wife had died, but he had three daughters. One
was much younger than the other two. She was gentle and kind and beautiful,
but her sisters were jealous of her and treated her badly.
They cut off her long black hair and they made her wear rags. They also buned
her face with coals from the fire to make her look ugly. And they lied to their
father and said that she had done these things to herself. But she remained kind
and gentle and went about her work with a patient heart.
The two older sisters also went to try and see Strong Wind. When he was
coming, Strong Wind’s sister asked them, “Do you see him?”
“Oh, yes! I see him!” Each of them answered.
“What is his bow made out of?” asked Strong Wind’s sister.
“Out of iron,” answered one. “Out of wood,” answered the other.
“You have not see him,” said Strong Wind’s sister.

Strong Wind himself heard them and knew that they had lied. They went into
the tent, but still they could not see him. They went home very sad.
One day the youngest daughter went to try and see Strong Wind. She was
wearing rags, and burn covered her face. People laughed at her, but she kept
going. When she got to Strong Wind’s tent she waited.

When Strong Wind was coming, his sister asked the girl, “Do you see him?”
“No,” the girl answered. “I don’t see him.”
Strong Wind’s sister was surprised because the girl had told the truth. “Now do
you see him?” asked Strong Wind’s sister.
“Yes,” answered the girl. “Now, I do see him. He is very wonderful.”
“What is his bowstring made of?” asked Strong Wind’s sister.
“The rainbow,” answered the girl.
“And what is the bowstring made of?” asked Strong Wind’s sister.
“Of Stars,” answered the girl.

Then Strong Wind’s sister knew that the girl could really see him. He had let
her see him because she had told the truth.
“You really have seen him,” said Strong Wind’s sister. Then the sister washed
the girl, and all the burns went away. Her hair grew long and black again. The
sister dressed the girl in fine clothes. Strong Wind came and the girl became his
wife.
The girls’ two older sisters were very angry, but Strong Wind turned them into
aspen trees. Ever since that day, the leaves of the aspen tree tremble with fear
whenever he comes near, because they know he remembers their lying and
their meanness.
TRANSLATE STRONG WIND

Dahulu kala ada seorang pejuang hebat yang bernama Strong Wind. Dia tinggal
bersama dengan adiknya di sebuah tenda di tepi laut. Strong Wind memiliki
kekuatan luar biasa. Dia mampu membuat dirinya tak terlihat. adiknya bisa
melihatnya, tapi tidak ada orang lain yang bisa melihatnya. Dia mengatakan ia
akan menikahi wanita pertama yang bisa melihat dia saat dia pulang pada
penghujung hari. Banyak wanita datang ke tenda untuk melihatnya. Ketika adiknya
melihat dia datang, dia akan bertanya, 'Apakah kamu melihat dia? “
Setiap gadis akan menjawab, ‘”Oh, ya! Saya melihat dia!” Kemudian adik Strong
Wind akan bertanya, “Dengan apa dia menarik kereta luncurnya?” Dan gadis itu
akan menjawab, “dengan tali” atau “dengan tiang kayu.“
adik Strong Wind tahu bahwa mereka berbohong, karena tebakan mereka salah.

Ada seorang kepala desa. Istrinya telah meninggal, tetapi ia memiliki tiga anak
perempuan. Yang satu jauh lebih muda dibandingkan dengan dua lainnya. Dia
lembut, baik dan cantik, tetapi kakak-kakaknya cemburu dan memperlakukannya
dengan buruk. Mereka memotong rambut hitam panjangnya dan mereka
membuatnya memakai pakaian usang. Mereka juga membakar wajahnya dengan
bara api untuk membuatnya tampak jelek. Dan mereka berbohong kepada ayah
mereka dan mengatakan bahwa dirinya sendiri yang melakukannya. Tetapi si
bungsu tetap sabar dan lemah lembut.
Kedua kakak perempuan juga pergi untuk mencoba dan melihat Strong Wind.
Ketika ia datang adik Strong Windbertanya kepada mereka, "Apakah kau melihat
dia?“ “Oh ya! Aku melihat dia!“ Keduanya menjawab.

"Terbuat dari apa busurnya?" Tanya adik Strong Wind .”besi,“ jawab salah satu.
“kayu yang kuat,“ jawab yang lain."Kau tidak melihatnya," kata adik Strong Wind
. Strong Wind sendiri mendengar mereka dan tahu bahwa mereka telah berbohong.
Mereka masuk ke tenda tapi masih mereka tidak bisa melihatnya. Mereka pulang
dengan bersedih.

Suatu hari putri bungsu pergi untuk mencoba dan melihat Strong Wind. Dia
mengenakan kain lusuh, dan wajahnya ditutupi luka bakar. Saat ia pergi di
sepanjang jalan, orang menunjuk dan tertawa padanya, tapi dia tetap melanjutkan
perjalanan. Ketika ia sampai di tenda Strong Wind dia menunggu.
Ketika Strong Wind datang, adiknya bertanya kepada gadis itu, "Apakah kau
melihat dia?“
"Tidak," gadis itu menjawab. "Aku tidak melihat dia.“ adik Strong Wind terkejut
karena gadis itu mengatakan yang sebenarnya. "Sekarang kau melihatnya?" Tanya
adik Strong Wind. "Ya," jawab gadis itu. "Sekarang saya melihat dia. Dia
mengagumkan.“
"Terbuat dari apa busurnya?" Tanya adik Strong Wind.” dari pelangi,“ jawab
gadis itu.”Dan dari apakah tali busurnya terbuat?“ Tanya adik Strong
Wind.“dari bintang," jawab gadis itu.

Adik Strong Wind tahu bahwa gadis itu benar-benar bisa melihatnya. Dia telah
membiarkan gadis itu melihatnya karena dia telah mengatakan yang
sebenarnya.”Kau benar-benar telah melihatnya,“ kata adik Strong Wind.
Kemudian adik Strong Wind memandikan gadis itu, dan membuat semua luka
bakarnya menghilang. Rambutnya tumbuh panjang dan hitam lagi. Adik
Strong Wind memakaikan gadis itu dengan pakaian bagus. Strong Wind
datang dan gadis itu menjadi istrinya.

Dua kakak perempuan gadis itu yang sangat marah, tetapi Strong Wind
merubah mereka menjadi pohon aspen. Sejak hari itu, daun pohon aspen
gemetar ketakutan setiap kali dia datang, karena mereka tahu ia mengingat
kebohongan dan kekejaman mereka.
