Cerita Dongeng Bahasa Inggris Anak dan Terjemahannya, Kisah Rapunzel and Her Long Golden Hair

TRIBUNJATENG.COM - Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a young girl named Rapunzel. 

She was known throughout the kingdom for her long, golden hair, which flowed like a waterfall down the tall tower she lived in.

Rapunzel’s story began many years ago when she was just a baby.

Her parents, the king and queen, were so happy when she was born.

But when she was still a baby, the witch appeared, took the child away, and named her Rapunzel after the plant her mother enjoyed eating.

The witch raised Rapunzel in a tall tower deep in the forest.

The tower had no door or stairs, only a single window at the top.

When the witch wanted to visit her, she would stand at the bottom of the tower and call out,

“Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!” Rapunzel would let her long, golden hair fall from the window, and the witch would climb up.

Rapunzel grew into a beautiful young woman, but she was isolated from the world and had never seen another human besides the witch.

She spent her days reading, painting, and singing songs that echoed through the forest.

Her only company was the forest animals who visited her, and she named them all.

There was Whiskers the rabbit, Feather the bluebird, and Fluffy the squirrel. She loved them all.

Now, as the story goes, there was a brave and kind-hearted prince who lived in a neighboring kingdom.

He had heard rumors of the beautiful girl with the long, golden hair locked away in a tower.
