Aladdin was a
lazy boy, only wanted play and eat all the time. He never helped to his mother
who worked all the day.
One day, in
the market, an old man called Abanazar called out to Aladdin, asked their name
and their father’s name. He answered that was Aladdin, son of Mustafa. Then,
Abanazar said that was his uncle, brother of Mustafa and gave to Aladdin ten
pieces of gold for their mother.
The next day,
Abanazar arrived at Aladdin’s house, met their mother and gave work to Aladdin
in a shop.
On
Friday, Abanazar took Aladdin to the beautiful gardens out of the city, up into
the hills. When they came there, Aladdin couldn’t see gardens. Aladdin asked
his uncle “Where is the garden?” Abanazar said to him “first we must make a
fire”. Aladdin obeyed, made the fire and Abanazar took some powder out of a
small box and put it on the fire while said “Abracadabra”. Suddenly, the ground
under the fire began to open.
In
the ground was a big stone with a ring in it. Abanazar ordered Aladdin put your
hand on the ring, say your name and your father’s name. Aladdin made this and
the stone moved easily. There, were stairs under the ground. Abanazar ordered
Aladdin go down the stairs and bring to him a lamp.
Abanazar
gave a magic ring for Aladdin protection. Aladdin went down the stairs, found
the lamp, took fruit from the trees, went back to the stairs and began to up.
Aladdin
didn’t want give the lamp to Abanazar and this one, angrily, added more powder
and said again “Abracadabra”. Soon, the ground was closed and Aladdin didn't
get out.
After
of three days, Aladdin remembered the ring in his hand, put his hand on it and
a sudden noise and a blue smoke came out of the ring. Out of the smoke, came
out a big jinnee and said “I am here master, I am the slave of the ring. What
is your wish?”. Aladdin said to the jinnee “take me out of here”. A second
later, he was back on the hills.
Aladdin came back to his house and told the true about Abanazar to his mother. Aladdin's mother didn't have food, so Aladdin asked sell the lamp. His mother began to rub the lamp and a big jinee came. ALaddin ordered bring food and the jinnee obeyed.
Five
years later, Aladdin had a shop in the market and had a nice house near the
gardens. Only he and his mother knew about the lamp.
One
day, the Sultan’s daughter, the princess Badr-al-Budor, was in the streets.
Aladdin saw the beautiful face of the princess and fell in love with her. So,
Aladdin ordered his mother go to the Sultan and ask for the princess’s hand.
Aladdin’s mother carried many jewels at the Sultan’s palace and spoke about her
son to the Sultan. But, the Vizier’s son also wanted the princess. The Sultan
gave two months to the Vizier’s son for bring him many jewels, gold and
beautiful things.
Two
months later the princess was engaged with the Vizier’s son and Aladdin was
sad. Then, he asked to the jinnee bring the princess. When the princess was
next to him, Aladdin confessed his love for her.
The next morning, the princess asked her
father marry with Aladdin. The Sultan sent to bring Aladdin’s mother and said
that the next day wanted forty gold plates with jewels, forty slave-girls,
forty slaves and thus, his daughter could marry with Aladdin. Aladdin asked
these things to the jinnee. So, he married with the princess and they lived
happily in a new palace.
Sometime
later, Abanazar arrived again to the city in Arabia. He knew that Aladdin was
alive, was married with the princess and knew that he had the magic lamp.
Abanazar
tricked to the princess and stole the lamp. The jinnee came out and Abanazar
asked “carry Aladdin’s palace, the princess and me back to Morocco at once”. In
a second, the palace and the princess were in Morocco.
The
Sultan ordered bring to Aladdin that was hunting. Then, the Sultan said to him
that he had forty days for find the princess or he must die. After thirty-two
days, he saw the magician ring on his finger and began to rub it. The jinnee of
the ring appeared and Aladdin asked bring the princess. But, the jinnee
couldn’t. So, Aladdin asked takes him until the princess. In a second, both
were together again. They gave to Abanazar a drink with magic powder and after
five seconds, he was asleep.
Aladdin
took out the magic lamp that was in Abanazar’s pocket and after, Aladdin killed
Abanazar. Then, Aladdin rubs the lamp and finally, asked to the jinnee came
back with the palace and the princess to Arabia, leaving to Abanazar here.
From that day, Aladdin and the princess
lived happily in their palace and had many children. Aladdin always carried the
magic lamp with him, day and night.
