ALADIN & THE MAGIC LAMP
In a country there lived a poor
widow and her son - Aladdin. One evening a stranger came and told them he was Aladdin’s uncle, Mustafa and he wanted to take him to work for him. Aladdin didn’t like the man, but his mother was happy to hear the news and agreed to let Aladdin go with his uncle. Next day Aladdin left home with his uncle.
The two walked for a day until they
reached a cave. The entrance was too small for Mustafa so he told Aladdin to enter for him. Aladdin was suspicious, but his uncle told him that there were gems and gold inside the cave which Aladdin could get as much as he wanted and he would only get an old lamp.
Aladdin went into the cave. He was surprised because the cave was full of treasure. He filled his pockets with diamonds and rubies. He also found a gold ring and put it on his finger. Finally he found the old lamp his uncle asked for. He wanted his uncle to give him a hand getting out of the cave, but Mustafa wanted to see the lamp first.
Aladdin was already suspicious of him. He thought Mustafa would take
the lamp and leave him, so he refused to give the lamp. His uncle got angry and left him in the cave blocking it with a huge rock. Aladdin sat in the dark angrily and rubbed the lamp a few times to wipe off the dust. Suddenly a genie came out and told him he would grant Aladdin three wishes
Aladdin told the genie to take him home and the next moment he was sitting at home before his mother. He said Mustafa wasn’t his uncle and he told her all the story. While talking Aladdin rubbed his ring and a second genie appeared. He said he would grant him two wishes. Aladdin wished to be very rich until the end of his life.
His mother and Aladdin started living a wealthy life then. One day as he was walking around the city he saw the Sultan’s daughter, Yasmin. The girl and Aladdin fell in love with each other. He went to the Sultan’s palace and told him that he wanted to get married to his daughter. The Sultan didn’t take him seriously and started laughing.
He said Aladdin had to have a palace like his to marry the princess. That night Aladdin took out the lamp and wished a palace. The Sultan let his daughter marry him when he saw the palace. After the Sultan’s death, Aladdin ruled the country. When the news reached Mustafa, he made a plan. He disquised himself as a lamp seller.
He went to Aladdin’s palace and tricked the princess giving a new lamp for the old lamp. He used the genie and took Aladdin’s wife and the palace far away. After looking for his wife for a long time he could get to Yasmin with the help of the genie from his ring. Finally Aladdin took the old lamp and turned Mustafa into a frog. They lived happily
