Once there was a bald boy, named Keloğlan. His old, poor mother was addressing him as “Bald son,
cute son”. One day Keloğlan went fishing to catch some fish. “I can catch a few fish for me and my
mother and shall be full up that evening”, he thought. On the edge of the river he threw his fishing-
line to the water, soon he caught a very big fish in the afternoon.
Its eyes were as light as a glass, and its scales were as brilliant as silver, it was a very beautiful
fish. Keloğlan carved its scales, and went to cut its belly and clean it. It’s was then he saw a big
bowl inside the fish. He felt very happy “I shall take both the bowl and the fish to my mother”, he
said. He wanted to wash the fish by the bowl of water and pour the water in the bowl on the fish
but at that time he saw that gold was flowing from the bowl instead of water. He tried a few times
to be sure.He saw again that gold was flowing
