Stepmother we always beat us every day, and we did not dare to be around her because she always kicked us to get away from him. We can never good food except crumbs and crusts of bread. If only our mother is still alive and knows all the suffering we have! Let's come with me, let's leave this house. "
Then the brothers it left the home of her stepmother, running all day, and when the rain poured down his sister said: "Heaven and our hearts cry together."
By evening, they arrived in a large forest, and they feel very tired and hungry after walking away. They found a crack in a hollow tree and into the crevice of the tree and fell asleep quickly.
The next morning, when they woke up, the sun was shining brightly and bring warmth, his brother said:
"I'm very thirsty, my little sister; If only I could find the river water, I'll drink it there. I felt listening to the flow of the river near here. "He then jumped up, pulled the hands of his sister and searching the creeks.
At that time the actual stepmother was a witch, knows that both his stepson had fled the house. He then secretly pursuing them. When he knew that they were thirsty, he then gave a magic spell on all waterways in the forest.
When the brothers found a clear brook, the brother immediately want to drink, but when it's sister heard a whisper: "Who meminumku will turn into a tiger! meminumku who will turn into a tiger! "
His brother shouted, "Brother, do not drink it, because you will turn into a tiger and would get me later." The elder brother even though feel thirsty, so do not drink it. "All right," he said, "We'll find something else springs."
When they found the river springs the second, his brother listening to the sound of a whisper: "Who meminumku will be a wolf, who meminumku will be a wolf!" And his sister shouted, "Brother, do not drink the water here, because you will turn into wolves and get me. "Back brother does not drink and said:" Well, I can still hold my thirst to meet with springs that third. "
And when they found springs third river, the younger brother heard a whisper: "Who meminumku will turn into a deer! who meminumku will be a deer! "Then the sister pleading," Brother, do not drink out here, or you'll turn into a deer and run away from me. "But his brother who has been so thirsty was on his knees and drink the water, and so his lips touch river water, he then immediately turned into a small deer.
The sister cried to see her brother who had been bewitched, as did his brother who had turned into a deer was crying on her lap. Finally, the brother said: "Never mind, I will not leave you alone," and then he took his gold belt and tied it around the deer's neck. Then she took her shawl and make rope tied to a belt around the neck of the deer. He then walked along the deer up further and further into the forest, where they eventually found the house empty and uninhabitable. His brother decided to spend the night and stay there with the deer.
After several years of living in this forest, one day the king went into the woods to hunt, so that the forest is filled with clattering-hooves, horns blowing of the trumpet, and the barking of hounds and shouts of hunters. Hearing trumpet hunting, the deer became agitated and wanted to get out of the house.
"Ah!" He told his sister, "Let me out! I can not stand to hear the horn. "She kept begging until her sister agreed reluctantly. "But," he said, "you must come back before night. I would lock my door for fear the hunters, so to know which came it was you or not, knock on my door and say, "Sister dear, open the door, I was out here." "If you do not say anything, I will not open you the door. "Eventually the deer agreed and ran out in the wild.
King immediately and hunter-hunters saw a beautiful deer and chase, but they were never able to catch up and find it. At nightfall, the deer went home and knocked on the door and said: "My dear sister, open the door, I was out here." Then the door opened and the deer came to rest in the house.
The next day when the hunt began again, and heard the trumpet at the blow, the deer request that his sister let him out. Like yesterday, his brother let him out of the house sadly.
When King hunting back, he and his hunters saw the deer with a gold belt around his neck, and began to chase him back, almost a full day they chase the deer and the deer eventually surrounded and slightly wounded in the leg so that the deer can not run fast again. The hunters who surrounded the deer saw the deer ran into a house and knocked on the door and said: "My dear sister, open the door, I was out here." The hunter saw the incident and reported to the king what they had seen. "Tomorrow we'll hunt again," said the king.
The sister when opening the door and saw the wounded deer became very frightened and sad. He then clean the wound and bandaged it with a concoction of leaves. Afterwards he said, "Go rest so that you get better soon."
The next day, the wound at the feet of the deer began to improve and the deer request that is allowed out, "I have to go out, I will take care that they do not catch me." Said the deer. The sister cried and said, "They'll catch you this time, and I will form alone in this forest. I can not let you out. "The deer replied," Well, maybe I would die of grief here. "Finally, the sister let the deer come out with a heavy heart.
When the King's deer hunting and saw it, he said to his hunters, "Now chase deer and seize it, but not to hurt him." And hunters caught the deer. When the day before the evening, the King said to his hunters, "Now show me me where the little house in the woods you see it." And they together went to the small house and the King then knocked on the door and said, "Sister dear , open the door, I was out here. "When the door opened, the King saw a very pretty girl standing in the house.
The girl who was the sister of the deer being surprised because it was not the deer knocked on the door, but the King himself. And the King is graciously took her hand and said, "Will you come with me to the palace?" "Yes, but I can not leave the deer I alone here." The King said, "Rusamu allowed to go wherever you go." And then the deer off by hunters and ran toward his sister.
