1. Legend has it that there was a royal fairy prince who was very fond of coming down to earth to play in a
garden where there were lots of beautiful flowers.
A very good morning to the honourable judges, loving teachers, fellow contestants, and audiences. My
name is Myrra Binti Abdul Jalal and I am going to tell you a story, titled A Bridge of Rainbow.
Legend has it that there was a royal fairy prince who was very fond of coming down to earth to play in a
garden where there were lots of beautiful flowers.
He came down on a horse accompanied by his royal escorts. Whenever he came, he brought with him a
golden bucket.
When he was tired he would bathe at a well nearby. He would use the golden bucket to fetch the water
which was very cool. Every time after his bath, he felt refreshed. “ brrrrrrrrr… what a refreshed!!!!´ Said
the prince while stretching his body.
One day, while bathing, he suddenly heard someone singing in such a beautiful melodious voice. “ I’m a
big big girl, in a big big world, it’s not a big big thing, if you leave… me.. but I do do feel, that I do do will,
miss you much… miss you much… “ He looked everywhere for the singer but he couldn’t see any one.
Suddenly he saw a very beautiful princess. The princess was playing with some of her escorts not far
from where the prince was bathing.
He was so captivated by her beauty that the golden bucket dropped out of his hand. When he realized
what had happened he began looking for the bucket. He looked and looked, but he couldn’t found it. His
escorts jumped into the well trying to find. But the golden bucket could not be found. Finally they had to
return to their fairyland empty handed.
Ever since that day, whenever he thought of the golden bucket, he would come down into the world to
look for it. The prince would come alone. There were no more royal escorts.
The people on earth knew the time when the prince would come down. There would appear a
wonderful sign from the clouds to the earth. It was a bridge of rainbow with the most beautiful colours.
It is said that even the clouds were sad about the missing bucket so they sent a drizzle. While it was
drizzling, the bridge of rainbow would be formed! Then the fairy prince would descent into the world to
look for the missing golden bucket.
Now my dear fellow friends, what do you think is the moral value of the story!
Do not easily get distracted by other temptations. When you do something, you have to do it with your
heart.
With that, I end my story.
Thank you.
