Dalam bahasa inggris

Once upon a time in West Java, Indonesia, lived a princess named Dayang Sumbi. She was beautiful and
kind-hearted. Her hobby was weaving cloth. But sometimes she could be very lazy. One day her weaving
tool fell but she was too lazy to get it herself. She shouted out,"Can anybody help me get my tool? If you
are a female, I will take you as my sister. If you are a male, I will marry you!".

A male creature came, but it was a dog. His name was Tumang. He happily brought her the tool to her.
Dayang Sumbi was very surprised but she kept her promise. She married the dog. Tumang was actually a
man who had been cursed by a witch to become a dog. But at certain times Tumang could turn back to
be normal man. Their only son, Sangkuriang, was soon born, and he grew up to be a handsome and
healthy boy. He always played with his very loyal dog, Tumang. He did not know that he was actually his
father, because Dayang Sumbi hid the secret from him. Sangkuriang liked to hunt in the woods, of
course with Tumang.

One day Dayang Sumbi asked him to bring home a deer's heart. But, after hunting for saveral days, he
could not find any deer in the wood. He did nt want to disappoint his mother and was thinking hard how
to bring home a deer's heart. Suddenly he had a very bad idea. He killed Tumang. Then he brought his
heart homeand gave it to Dayang Sumbi.

Sangkuriang could not cheat her. She knew it was Tumang's heart. So, she got very angry and hit
Sangkuriang's forehead with a piece of wood and told him to leave. With a bad wound on his forehead.
Sangkuriang left the village.

a beautiful young woman there, and he fell in love with her at the first sight. It was Dayang Sumbi. She
never got older because she had been granted eternal youth by the gods.

hard to explain it to him, but he did not believe her. She did not want to break his heart, so she accepted
his proposal but gave him an impossible thing to do. She wanted him to build a lake and a boat in just
one night!

Sangkuriang agreed, because he knew that he could make it with the help of his genies. By midnight he
finished the lake and then started making the boat. Dayang Sumbi was thinking hard to find a way to fail
him.

Before dawn, she asked the people in the village to burn the woods in the East, and the light made all
the cocks crow. Thinking that the night would be over soon, the genies rand fast and left Sangkuriang
before the boat was finished. Sangkuriang realized that Dayang Sumbi had cheated him. He got very
angry and he kicked the boat upside down. It gradually became a mountain and it is now known as Mt.
Tangkuban Perahu.
 Kisah Sangkuriang

Dalam bahasa indonesia

Alkisah di Jawa Barat, Indonesia, hiduplah seorang putri bernama Dayang Sumbi. Dia cantik dan baik
hati. Hobinya adalah menenun kain. Tapi terkadang dia bisa sangat malas. Suatu hari alat tenunnya jatuh
tetapi dia terlalu malas untuk mengambilnya sendiri. Dia berteriak, "Adakah yang bisa membantu saya
mendapatkan alat saya? Jika Anda perempuan, saya akan mengambil Anda sebagai saudara perempuan
saya. Jika Anda laki-laki, saya akan menikahi Anda!"

Makhluk laki-laki datang, tetapi itu adalah seekor anjing. Namanya Tumang. Dia dengan senang hati
membawakan alat itu padanya. Dayang Sumbi sangat terkejut tapi dia menepati janjinya. Dia menikahi
anjing itu. Tumang sebenarnya adalah seorang pria yang telah dikutuk oleh penyihir menjadi seekor
anjing. Namun pada saat-saat tertentu Tumang bisa kembali menjadi manusia biasa. Putra tunggal
mereka, Sangkuriang, segera lahir, dan ia tumbuh menjadi anak laki-laki yang tampan dan sehat. Dia
selalu bermain dengan anjingnya yang sangat setia, Tumang. Dia tidak tahu bahwa dia sebenarnya
adalah ayahnya, karena Dayang Sumbi menyembunyikan rahasia itu darinya. Sangkuriang suka berburu
di hutan, tentu saja dengan Tumang.

Suatu hari Dayang Sumbi memintanya untuk membawa pulang hati rusa. Tapi, setelah berburu selama
berhari-hari, dia tidak menemukan rusa di hutan. Dia tidak ingin mengecewakan ibunya dan berpikir
keras bagaimana membawa pulang hati rusa. Tiba-tiba dia punya ide yang sangat buruk. Dia membunuh
Tumang. Kemudian dia membawa pulang hatinya dan memberikannya kepada Dayang Sumbi.

Sangkuriang tidak bisa menipunya. Dia tahu itu adalah hati Tumang. Jadi, dia menjadi sangat marah dan
memukul dahi Sangkuriang dengan sepotong kayu dan menyuruhnya pergi. Dengan luka parah di
dahinya. Sangkuriang meninggalkan desa.

Bertahun-tahun kemudian, Sangkuriang tumbuh menjadi orang yang kuat. Suatu hari dia kembali ke
desanya. Dia bertemu dengan seorang wanita muda yang cantik di sana, dan dia jatuh cinta padanya
pada pandangan pertama. Itu Dayang Sumbi. Dia tidak pernah bertambah tua karena dia telah diberikan
masa muda abadi oleh para dewa.

Sangkuring tidak tahu bahwa dia adalah ibunya, jadi dia datang kepadanya dan melamarnya. Ketika dia
berjalan mendekatinya, Dayang Sumbi menjadi sangat terkejut. Dia melihat bekas luka di dahi
Sangkuriang, dan segera dia tahu bahwa dia adalah putranya, yang telah lama meninggalkannya. Dia
mengatakan yang sebenarnya dan berusaha keras untuk menjelaskan kepadanya, tetapi dia tidak
percaya padanya. Dia tidak ingin menghancurkan hatinya, jadi dia menerima lamarannya tetapi
memberinya hal yang mustahil untuk dilakukan. Dia ingin dia membangun danau dan perahu hanya
dalam satu malam!

Sangkuriang setuju, karena dia tahu bahwa dia bisa membuatnya dengan bantuan jin-jinnya. Pada
tengah malam dia menyelesaikan danau dan kemudian mulai membuat perahu. Dayang Sumbi sedang
berpikir keras untuk menemukan cara untuk mengecewakannya.

Sebelum fajar, dia meminta orang-orang di desa untuk membakar hutan di Timur, dan cahaya membuat
semua ayam berkokok. Berpikir bahwa malam akan segera berakhir, para jin berlari kencang dan
meninggalkan Sangkuriang sebelum perahu selesai. Sangkuriang menyadari bahwa Dayang Sumbi telah
menipunya. Dia menjadi sangat marah dan menendang perahu hingga terbalik. Secara bertahap menjadi
gunung dan sekarang dikenal sebagai Gunung Tangkuban Perahu.
