Once upon a time there was Tsar Berendey, he had three sons, the youngest was called Ivan.
And the king had a magnificent garden; an apple tree with golden apples grew in that garden.
Someone began to visit the royal garden, steal golden apples. The king felt sorry for his garden. He sends guards there. No guards can keep track of the kidnapper.
The king stopped eating and drinking, he became homesick. Father's sons console:
- Our dear father, do not be sad, we ourselves will guard the garden.
Elder son says:
- Today it's my turn, I'll go guard the garden from the kidnapper.
The eldest son left. No matter how much he walked in the evening, he did not follow anyone, he fell on the soft grass and fell asleep.
In the morning the king asks him:
- Well, won't you please me: have you seen the kidnapper?
- No, dear father, I didn’t sleep all night, I didn’t close my eyes, but I didn’t see anyone.
The next night the middle son went to watch and also slept all night, and in the morning he said that he had not seen the kidnapper.
The time has come for the younger brother to go guard. Ivan Tsarevich went to guard his fathers garden and was even afraid to sit down, let alone lie down. As his sleep is overwhelmed, he will wash himself with dew from the grass, sleep and out of sight. Half of the night has passed, and it seems to him: there is light in the garden. Lighter and brighter. The whole garden was lit up. He sees the Firebird sitting on the apple tree and pecking at the golden apples. Ivan Tsarevich quietly crawled up to the apple tree and caught the bird by the tail. The Firebird started up and flew away, leaving one feather from its tail in his hand. The next morning Tsarevich Ivan comes to his father. “Well, my dear Vanya, have you seen the kidnapper?
- Dear father, I didn’t catch it, but I traced who was ruining our garden. I brought you a memory from the kidnapper. This, father, is the Firebird.
The king took this pen and from that time on he began to drink and eat and not know sadness. At one fine time, he thought about this about the Firebird.
He called his sons and said to them:
- My dear children, if you saddled good horses, you would travel around the wide world, you would know places, you would not attack the Firebird anywhere.
The children bowed to their father, saddled the good horses and set off on the road - the road: the eldest in one direction, the middle one in the other, and Ivan Tsarevich in the third direction.
Ivan Tsarevich rode for a long time, or a short one. The day was summer. Ivan Tsarevich got tired, dismounted from his horse, confused him, and he himself fell to sleep.
How much, how little time has passed, Ivan Tsarevich woke up, he sees - there is no horse. He went to look for him, walked, walked and found his horse - only gnawed bones. Ivan Tsarevich was sad: where without a horse to go so far?
"Well, - he thinks, - he took it - there is nothing to do." And he went on foot.
Walked, walked, tired to death. He sat down on the soft grass and mourned, sitting.
Out of nowhere, a gray wolf runs towards him:
- What, Ivan Tsarevich, are you sitting down, hung your head?
- How can I not be sad, gray wolf? I was left without a good horse.
- It's me, Ivan Tsarevich, I ate your horse ... I feel sorry for you! Tell me, why did you go far, where are you going?
- Father sent me to travel around the world, to find the Firebird.
- Fu, fu, you won't get to the Firebird in three years on your good horse. I alone know where she lives. So be it - I ate your horse, I will serve you with faith - the truth. Get on top of me and hold on tight.
Ivan Tsarevich sat on him, the gray wolf and galloped - he misses the blue forests past his eyes, sweeps the lakes with his tail. How long, how short, they run to a high fortress.


Russian folk tale


Once upon a time there was Tsar Berendey, he had three sons, the youngest was called Ivan.

And the king had a magnificent garden; an apple tree with golden apples grew in that garden.

Someone began to visit the royal garden, steal golden apples. The king felt sorry for his garden. He sends guards there. No guards can keep track of the kidnapper.

The king stopped eating and drinking, he became homesick. Father's sons console:

Our dear father, do not be sad, we ourselves will guard the garden.

Elder son says:

Today it's my turn, I'll go guard the garden from the kidnapper.

The eldest son left. No matter how much he walked in the evening, he did not follow anyone, he fell on the soft grass and fell asleep.

In the morning the king asks him:

Well, won't you please me: have you seen the kidnapper?

No, dear father, he didn’t sleep all night, didn’t close his eyes, but didn’t see anyone.

The next night the middle son went to watch and also slept all night, and in the morning he said that he had not seen the kidnapper.

The time has come for the younger brother to go guard. Ivan Tsarevich went to guard his fathers garden and was even afraid to sit down, let alone lie down. As his sleep is overwhelmed, he will wash himself with dew from the grass, sleep and out of sight.

Half of the night has passed, and it seems to him: there is light in the garden. Lighter and brighter. The whole garden was lit up. He sees the Firebird sitting on the apple tree and pecking at the golden apples.

Ivan Tsarevich quietly crawled up to the apple tree and caught the bird by the tail. The Firebird started up and flew away, leaving one feather from its tail in his hand.

The next morning, Ivan Tsarevich comes to his father.

Well, my dear Vanya, have you seen the kidnapper?

Dear father, I didn’t catch, but I traced who was ruining our garden. I brought you a memory from the kidnapper. This, father, is the Firebird.

The king took this pen and from that time began to drink and eat, and not to know sadness. At one fine time, he thought about this about the Firebird.

He called his sons and said to them:

My dear children, if you saddled good horses, you would travel around the wide world, you would know places, you would not attack the Firebird anywhere.

The children bowed to their father, saddled the good horses and set off on their journey: the eldest in one direction, the middle one in the other, and Ivan Tsarevich in the third direction.

Ivan Tsarevich rode for a long time, or a short one. The day was summer. Ivan Tsarevich got tired, dismounted from his horse, confused him, and he himself fell to sleep.

How much, how little time has passed, Ivan Tsarevich woke up, he sees - there is no horse. He went to look for him, walked, walked and found his horse - only gnawed bones.

Ivan Tsarevich was sad: where without a horse to go so far?

"Well, - he thinks, - he took it - there is nothing to do."

And he went on foot.

Walked, walked, tired to death.

He sat down on the soft grass and mourned, sitting.

Out of nowhere, a gray wolf runs towards him:

What, Ivan Tsarevich, are you sitting down, hung your head?

How can I not be sad, gray wolf? I was left without a good horse.

It was I, Ivan Tsarevich, who ate your horse... I feel sorry for you! Tell me, why did you go far, where are you going?

Father sent me to travel around the world, to find the Firebird.

Fu, fu, you won't get to the Firebird in three years on your good horse. I alone know where she lives. So be it - I ate your horse, I will serve you faithfully. Get on top of me and hold on tight.

Ivan Tsarevich sat on him, the gray wolf and galloped - he misses the blue forests past his eyes, sweeps the lakes with his tail. How long, how short, they run to a high fortress. Gray wolf says:

Listen to me, Ivan Tsarevich, remember: climb over the wall, do not be afraid - the hour is good, all the watchmen are sleeping. You will see a window in the tower, there is a golden cage on the window, and the Firebird sits in the cage. You take a bird, put it in your bosom, but don’t touch the cages!

Ivan Tsarevich climbed over the wall, saw this tower - there is a golden cage on the window, the Firebird sits in the cage. He took the bird, put it in his bosom, and stared at the cage. His heart flared up: “Oh, what a golden, precious one! How can you not take one!” And he forgot that the wolf punished him. As soon as he touched the cage, a sound went through the fortress: the trumpets blew, the drums beat, the watchmen woke up, grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and led him to Tsar Afron.

King Afron became angry and asked:

Whose are you, where are you from?

I am Tsar Berendey's son, Ivan Tsarevich.

Oh, what a shame! Yes, the king's son went to steal.

But what, when your bird flew, our garden was ruined?

And you would have come to me, honestly asked, I would have given it like that, out of respect for your parent, Tsar Berendey. And now in all cities I will let a bad reputation about you ... Well, okay, if you do me a favor, I will forgive you. In such and such a kingdom, King Kusman has a golden-maned horse. Bring him to me, then I'll give you the Firebird with the cage.

Ivan Tsarevich got angry and went to the gray wolf. And the wolf to him:

I told you not to move the cage! Why didn't you listen to my order?

Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

That's it, I'm sorry ... Okay, sit on me. I took hold of the tug, don't say that it's not hefty.

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich. How long, they run to the fortress where the golden-maned horse stands.

Climb, Ivan Tsarevich, over the wall, the watchmen are sleeping, go to the stable, take the horse, but don’t touch the bridle!

Ivan Tsarevich climbed into the fortress, where all the watchmen were sleeping, went into the stable, caught a golden-maned horse, and coveted the bridle - it was set with gold and expensive stones; in it the golden-maned horse can only walk.

Ivan Tsarevich touched the bridle, a sound spread throughout the fortress: trumpets blew, drums beat, the watchmen woke up, grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and led him to Tsar Kusman.

Whose are you, where are you from?

I am Ivan Tsarevich.

Eka, what stupid things he took up - to steal a horse! An ordinary man will not agree to this. Well, I'll forgive you, Ivan Tsarevich, if you do me a favor. The king of Dalmat has a daughter, Elena the Beautiful. Kidnap her, bring her to me, I will give you a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich became even more mournful and went to the gray wolf.

I told you, Ivan Tsarevich, don't touch the bridle! You did not listen to my order.

Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

That's it, I'm sorry... Come on, sit on my back.

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich. They run to the king of Dalmat. In his fortress in the garden, Elena the Beautiful walks with her mothers and nannies. gray wolf says:

This time I won't let you in, I'll go myself. And you go back by way, dear, I'll catch up with you soon.

Ivan - Tsarevich went back along the road, and the gray wolf jumped over the wall - and into the garden. He sat down behind a bush and looked: Elena the Beautiful came out with her mothers, nannies. She walked and walked, and only lagged behind the mothers and nannies, the gray wolf grabbed Elena the Beautiful, threw her over her back - and ran away.

Ivan Tsarevich is on his way, suddenly a gray wolf overtakes him, Elena the Beautiful is sitting on him. Ivan Tsarevich was delighted, and the gray wolf to him:

Get on me quickly, as if there was no pursuit for us.

The gray wolf rushed off with Ivan Tsarevich, with Elena the Beautiful on the way back - the blue forests pass by the eyes, the rivers, the lakes sweep with its tail. How long, how short, they run to King Kusman. The gray wolf asks:

What, Ivan Tsarevich, fell silent, mourned?

But how can I, gray wolf, not be sad? How can I part with such beauty? How will I change Elena the Beautiful for a horse?

The gray wolf says:

I will not part you with such beauty - let's hide it somewhere, and I will turn into Elena the Beautiful, you and lead me to the king.

Here they hid Elena the Beautiful in a forest hut. The gray wolf turned over his head and became exactly like Elena the Beautiful. Ivan Tsarevich took him to Tsar Kusman. The king was delighted, began to thank him:

Thank you, Ivan Tsarevich, for getting me a bride. Get a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich mounted this horse and rode after Elena the Beautiful. He took her, put her on a horse, and they ride along the road.

And Tsar Kusman arranged a wedding, feasted all day until evening, and when he had to go to bed, he took Elena the Beautiful to the bedroom, but only lay down with her on the bed, looking - a wolf's face instead of a young wife! The king fell out of bed with fear, and the wolf ran away.

The gray wolf catches up with Ivan Tsarevich and asks:

What was Ivan Tsarevich thinking about?

How can I not think? It is a pity to part with such a treasure - a golden-maned horse, to change it for the Firebird.

Don't worry, I will help you.

Here they reach the king Afron. wolf and says:

Hide this horse and Elena the Beautiful, and I will turn into a horse with a golden mane, you and lead me to King Afron.

They hid Elena the Beautiful and the golden-maned horse in the forest. The gray wolf threw itself over his back, turned into a golden-maned horse. Ivan Tsarevich led him to Tsar Afron. The king was delighted and gave him the Firebird with a golden cage.

Ivan Tsarevich returned on foot to the forest, put Elena the Beautiful on a golden-maned horse, took a golden cage with a Firebird and rode along the road to his native side.

And King Afron ordered to bring a gift horse to him and just wanted to sit on it - the horse turned into a gray wolf. The king, out of fear, where he stood, fell there, and the gray wolf took to his heels and soon caught up with Ivan Tsarevich.

Ivan Tsarevich got down from his horse and bowed three times to the ground, respectfully thanked the gray wolf. And he says:

Don't say goodbye to me forever, I'll still be useful to you.

Ivan Tsarevich thinks: “Where else can you be useful? All my desires have been fulfilled." He sat on a golden-maned horse, and again they rode with Elena the Beautiful, with the Firebird. He reached his own edges, he decided to take a midday meal. He had some bread with him. Well, they ate, drank spring water and lay down to rest.

As soon as Ivan Tsarevich fell asleep, his brothers run into him. They traveled to other lands, looking for the Firebird, returned empty-handed. They drove in and saw that everything had been obtained from Ivan Tsarevich. Here is what they had to say:

Let's kill our brother, all the booty will be ours.

They decided and killed Ivan Tsarevich. They sat on a golden-maned horse, took the Firebird, put Elena the Beautiful on the horse and frightened her:

Don't say anything at home!

Tsarevich Ivan lies dead, crows are already flying over him. Out of nowhere, a gray wolf ran up and grabbed a raven with a crow.

You fly, raven, for living and dead water. If you bring me living and dead water, then I will let your crow go.

The raven, there is nothing to do, flew away, and the wolf is holding his little crow. How long did the raven fly, how short, did it bring living and dead water. The gray wolf sprinkled Ivan Tsarevich's wounds with dead water, the wounds healed; sprinkled it with living water - Ivan Tsarevich came to life.

Oh, I slept soundly!

You slept soundly, - says the gray wolf. If it wasn't for me, I wouldn't have woken up at all. Your brothers killed you and took away all your booty. Get on me quickly!

They rode in pursuit and overtook both brothers. Then the gray wolf tore them to pieces and scattered the pieces across the field.

Ivan Tsarevich bowed to the gray wolf and said goodbye to him forever.

Ivan Tsarevich returned home on a golden-maned horse, brought the Firebird to his father, and his bride, Elena the Beautiful.

Tsar Berendey was delighted, and began to ask his son. Ivan Tsarevich began to tell how the gray wolf helped him get prey, and how the brothers killed him, sleepy, and how the gray wolf tore them to pieces.

Tsar Berendey grieved and was soon consoled. And Ivan Tsarevich married Elena the Beautiful, and they began to live and live and not know grief.

A long time ago was in some realm
A mighty king named Demyan
Danilovich. He reigned wisely;
And he had three sons: Klim -
Tsarevich, Peter Tsarevich and Ivan -
Tsarevich. Yes, he still had
Beautiful garden, and wonderful grew
There is an apple tree in the garden; all gold
Apples were born on it. But suddenly
10 In those apples of the king turned out to be
Great defect; and Tsar Demyan
Danilovich was so saddened
Lost weight, lost appetite
And fell into insomnia. Here at last
Calling his three sons to him,
He told them: "Friends of the heart
And my sons, Klim-
Tsarevich, Peter Tsarevich and Ivan
Prince, now you owe a big
20 Do me a favor; to my royal garden
A thief got into the habit of hanging around at night;
And there are a lot of golden apples
gone; this is a loss for me
Nauseous than death. Listen friends;
For those of you who manage to catch
Under the night thief's apple tree, I
I will give half of the kingdom during my lifetime;
When I die, and I leave everything to him
Inheritance." Sons, having heard that,
30 What their father said to them, agreed
Alternately walk into the garden, and the night
Do not sleep, and guard the thief. And first
Went, as soon as the night came, Klim-
The prince went into the garden, and there lay down in a thick
Grass under the apple tree, and for half an hour
I lay in it, and fell asleep so soundly,
That noon was when, tearing his eyes,
He stood up with a yawn.
And, returning to Tsar Demyan, he
40 Said the thief didn't come that night.
Another night has come; Peter Tsarevich
He sat down to guard a thief under an apple tree;
He fastened for an hour, in the dark
He looked into all eyes, but in the dark
Everything was empty; finally, he
Not having overcome drowsiness, fell down
In the grass and snored for the whole garden.
It was a long time ago when he woke up.
Coming to the king, he reported to him in the same way,
50 Like Klim Tsarevich, like this night
The thief did not come to steal the royal apples.
On the third night Ivan went
Tsarevich in the garden by turns thief
Guard. Under the apple tree he hid,
Sitting without moving, looking diligently
And did not doze; and that's when it came
Deaf midnight, the garden is covered with trees
As if by lightning; and what does he see
Ivan Tsarevich? From the east quickly
60 The firebird flies like a fiery star
Shining and transforming night into day.
Clinging to the apple tree, Ivan Tsarevich
Sitting, not moving, not breathing, waiting,
What will happen? Sitting on an apple tree, firebird
Set to work and narwhala
A dozen apples. Here is Ivan Tsarevich,
Slowly rising from the grass
Grabbed a thief by the tail; dropping
Apples to the ground, she rushed
70 With all my strength and pulled out of my hands
Tsarevich her tail and flew away;
However, he has one
The pen remained, and such was the brilliance
From this pen, that the whole garden
Seemed to be fire. To Tsar Demyan
Arriving, Ivan Tsarevich reported
Him that the thief was found and that this
The thief was not a man, but a bird; as a sign,
That he told the truth, Ivan Tsarevich
80 Respectfully gave Tsar Demyan
The feather he is from the tail
Pulled from a thief. Happy father
Kissed him. Since then they have not
Stealing golden apples, and Tsar Demyan
Cheered up, gained weight and started
Still eat, drink and sleep. But in it
A strong desire ignited: to get
An apple thief, a wonderful firebird.
Calling to himself two eldest sons,
90 “My friends,” he said, “Klim Tsarevich
And Peter Tsarevich, you have long
It's time for people to see themselves
Show them. With my blessing
And with the help of the Lord go
On exploits and gain honor
Yourself and glory; me, the king, get
firebird; which of you will get it,
To that in life I will give half the kingdom,
And after death I will leave everything to him
100 Inheritance." Bowing to the king, immediately
The princes set out on their journey.
A little while later came
To the tsar, Ivan Tsarevich said:
"My parent, great sovereign
Demyan Danilovich, let me go
For brothers; and it's time for me people
See and show yourself to them
And the honor to amass from them and fame.
Yes, and you, the king, I will please
110 I would like to get a firebird for you.
Parental blessing to me
Give and let me go on my path with God.
To this the tsar said: “Ivan Tsarevich,
You're still young, wait; yours
The time will come; now you me
Do not leave; I'm old, I won't be long
To live in the world; what if i'm alone
If I die, then to whom will I leave mine
People and Kingdom? But Ivan Tsarevich
120 He was so stubborn that finally the king
And reluctantly blessed him.
And Ivan Tsarevich set off on his journey;
And he rode, rode, and came to the place,
Where the road divided into three.
He saw a pillar at the crossroads,
And on the pillar is this inscription: "Who
Go straight, be all the way
And hungry and cold; who's right
He will go, he will be alive, but his horse
130 He will die, and who will go to the left, himself
He will die, but his horse will live. to the right,
Thinking, I decided to turn
Ivan Tsarevich. He did not travel long;
Suddenly a gray wolf ran out of the forest
And he rushed fiercely at the horse;
And Ivan Tsarevich did not have time to take
For the sword, how the horse was already eaten,
And the Gray Wolf is gone. Ivan Tsarevich,
Hanging his head, he went quietly
140 On foot; but did not go long; in front of him
Still came the Gray Wolf
And in a human voice he said:
"I'm sorry, Ivan Tsarevich, my heart,
What is your good horse
Zael, but you yourself, of course, saw
What is written on the pillar; to that
That's the way it should have been; however you
Forget your sadness for me
Get in; I believe in you
150 I will serve from now on. Well, tell me
Where are you going now and why?
And Serom Ivan Tsarevich wolf
He told everything. And the Gray Wolf to him
He answered: “Where to find the firebird,
I know; well sit on me
Ivan Tsarevich, and let's go with God.
Rushed off with a rider; and with him he is at midnight
Stopped at a stone wall.
160 “We have arrived, Ivan Tsarevich! - Wolf
He said - but listen, in a golden cage
Hanging behind this fence
Firebird; you her out of the cage
Get it quietly, the cells are by no means
Don't touch, you'll get in trouble." - Ivan-
The prince climbed over the fence;
Behind her in the garden he saw a firebird
In a rich golden cage, and a garden
It was illuminated as if by the sun. Taking out
170 From the golden firebird's cage, he
I thought: “What should I take her in?”
And, forgetting that the Gray Wolf to him
Advised, took a cage; but from everywhere
Strings were led to it; loud
The bell went up, and the watchmen woke up,
And they ran into the garden, and in the garden of Ivan
They seized the prince, and to the king
Presented, and the king (he was called
Dalmat) said: “Where are you from?
180 And who are you?" - “I am Ivan Tsarevich; my
Father, Demyan Danilovich, owns
Great, strong state; your
The firebird at night fly into our garden
Got into the habit of stealing gold
There are apples: he sent me for her
My parent, great sovereign
Demyan Danilovich. On it's king
Dalmat said: "Are you a prince or not,
That I do not know; but if true
190 You said, it's not by royal craft
You trade; could straight to me
Say: give me, King Dalmat, the firebird,
And I would give it to you with my hands
In respect of the fact that the king
Demyan Danilovich, so famous
With his wisdom, your father.
But listen, I give you my firebird
Willingly yield when you yourself
You will get me the horse Goldmane;
200 Belongs to a mighty king
Afron he. For distant lands
You go to the thirtieth kingdom
And the mighty king Afron
Ask me for the horse Goldmane
Or some cunning to get him.
When you don't come back to me with a horse,
Then I will glorify the world around the world,
That you are not a king's son, but a thief; and will be
Then you are a great shame and shame.
210 Hanging his head, Ivan Tsarevich
Went where the Gray Wolf was
Left. The Gray Wolf said to him:
“In vain, Ivan Tsarevich,
You didn't listen; but help
There is nothing; be smarter ahead; let's go
To distant lands to King Afron.
And the Gray Wolf is faster than any bird
Rushed off with a rider; and by night into the kingdom
King Afron they arrived,
220 And at the door of the royal stable there
Stopped. - “Well, Ivan Tsarevich,
Listen, - the Gray Wolf said, - come in
To the stable; the grooms are fast asleep; you
You can easily get the horse out of the stall
Goldenmane; just take it
His bridles; you're in trouble again."
To the royal stable Ivan Tsarevich
He entered and led the horse out of the stall;
But unfortunately, looking at the bridle,
230 I was seduced by her so that I forgot
Just about what the Gray Wolf said
And removed the bridle from the nail. But to her
Strings were drawn from everywhere;
Everything rang; the groom jumped up;
And Ivan Tsarevich was caught with a horse,
And they brought him to King Afron.
And King Afron asked sternly: "Who are you?"
Ivan Tsarevich is the same in response to him
He said that to the king of Dalmat. Tsar
240 Afron replied: “You are good
Tsarevich! Is this how it should be
Tsareviches? And is it royal?
Stagger at night and steal
Horses? With you, I could violently
Remove head; but your youth
I'm sorry to ruin; yes and a horse
I agree to give Goldenmane
Just go to distant lands
You are in the thirtieth kingdom from here
250 Yes, bring me a princess from there
Beautiful Helen, daughter of the king
Mighty Qasim; if I
If you don’t bring her, then I will praise her everywhere,
That you are a nocturnal vagabond, a rogue and a thief."
Again, hanging his head, he went
There Ivan Tsarevich, where
Waiting for the Gray Wolf. And the Gray Wolf said:
“Oh, Ivan Tsarevich! If I
I did not love you so much, here my would be
260 And there was no spirit. Well, full of groan,
Get on me, let's ride with God
Far away lands to King Kasim;
Now it's mine, not your business."
And the Gray Wolf again gallop with Ivan-
Tsarevich set off. Here they are
We have traveled far away,
And now they are already in the thirtieth kingdom;
And the Gray Wolf, having put Ivan off himself,
Tsarevich, said: "Not far
270 Hence the royal garden; go there alone
I'll go; you wait for me under this
Green oak." The gray wolf has gone
And climbed over the fence of the garden,
And dug into the bush, and there lay
Without moving. Beautiful Elena
Kasimovna - red girls with her,
And mothers and nannies - went
Walk in the garden; a gray wolf
That's what he was waiting for: noticing that the princess,
280 Separated from the others, walked alone,
He jumped out from under the bush, grabbed
Princess, behind her back
I threw it in and God bless my legs. Scary
The cry was raised by the red maidens,
And mothers and nannies; and all
The court ran, ministers, chamberlains
And generals; the king ordered to collect
Hunters and all to lower their

Greyhounds and hounds - all in vain:

290 The Gray Wolf with the princess and with Ivan-
The prince was far away, and the next
I've caught a cold for a long time; the princess was lying
Without any movement, Ivan
Tsarevich in the hands (so the Gray Wolf
Her heart, frightened).
Little by little she began
Come into yourself, moved, eyes
Lovely opened and, quite
Waking up, raised them to Ivan-
300 Tsarevich and blushed all over,
Like a scarlet rose; and Ivan with her
The prince blushed, and at that moment
She and he loved each other
So much that not in a fairy tale to tell,
It cannot be described with a pen.
And Ivan fell into deep sadness
Tsarevich: firmly, strongly did not want to
With Princess Elena to him
Break up and give her to the king
310 Afron; yes, and she herself was
More terrible than death. Gray wolf, noticing
Their grief, he said so: “Ivan Tsarevich,
If you please, twist in vain;
I'll help your motherfucker: it's
Not a service-server; direct service
Waiting ahead." And now they are in the kingdom
King Afron. Gray Wolf said:
“Ivan Tsarevich, here they must with skill
We do: I will turn into a princess;
320 And you come with me to King Afron.
Give me to him and, having received
Steed Goldmane, ride ahead
With Elena Kasimovna; me you
Wait in a hidden place; wait for you
It won't be boring." Here, hitting the ground,
The Gray Wolf became Princess Elena
Kasimovna. Ivan Tsarevich, having passed
From hand to hand to King Afron
And having received the horse Goldmane,
330 On that horse he launched into the forest with an arrow,
Where the real one was waiting for him
Princess. In the palace of King Afron
Meanwhile, the wedding was being prepared:
And on the same day with the bride the king to the crown
Went; when were they remarried
And the young one owed the young one
Kiss, lips king Afron
Faced with a rough wolf's muzzle,
And this muzzle bit my nose
340 King, and not a wife in front of him
Beauty, and the wolf king Afron
Saw; The Gray Wolf did not become
Here stand on ceremony: he knocked down with his tail
King Afron is off his feet and sprang at the door.
Everyone began to shout: “Hold, hold!
Catch, catch! Where are you going! Already Ivana-
Tsarevich with Princess Elena
The nimble Gray Wolf had long since caught up;
And already, having descended from the horse of Goldmane,
350 Ivan Tsarevich moved to the Wolf,
And forward they again, like whirlwinds,
We flew. So they came to the kingdom
They are Dalmatian. And the Gray Wolf
Said: "In the horse of Goldmane
I will turn, and you, Ivan Tsarevich,
Giving me to the king and taking the firebird,
Still with Princess Elena
Step forward; I'll catch up with you soon."
So everything happened, as the Wolf arranged.
360 Goldmane ordered immediately
The king saddled, and rode on it
He is with a retinue of the court for hunting;
And ahead of everyone he rode
For a hare; all the courtiers shouted:
“How gallantly Tsar Dalmat gallops!”
But suddenly from under him at full gallop
The rough Wolf scurried, and Tsar Dalmat,
Rolling over from his back,
In an instant, he found himself head down,
370 Feet up, and, shoulder-deep
In the plowed land, rested
In her hands, and, in vain trying
Free yourself, chatted in the air
kicking; the whole retinue is here for him
She started to jump; freed
the king; then everyone got loud
Screaming: “Catch, catch! Herbs, herbs!
But there was no one to poison; on the wolf
Ivan was still sitting
380 Tsarevich; on horseback with Goldmane
The princess, and under her Goldmane
Proud and dancing; slowly,
On the big road they step by step
We rode slowly; and a little or a long time
Their road lasted - finally
They reached the place where Ivan-
Tsarevich Gray Wolf for the first time
Was met; and still lay there
His horse's bones are whitening;
390 And the Gray Wolf, sighing, said to Ivan -
Tsarevich: “Now, Ivan Tsarevich,
The time has come for us to leave each other;
I am faithful and true to this day
I served you, and with your caress
Satisfied, and as long as alive, you
I won't forget; here for goodbye
I want to give you some useful advice:
Be careful, people are evil; and brothers
Don't trust your family. I pray earnestly to God
400 So that you get home without trouble
And to make me happy
Announcement about yourself. I'm sorry Ivan
Tsarevich. With that word, the Wolf disappeared.
Grieving for him, Ivan Tsarevich,
With Princess Elena on the saddle,
With a firebird in a cage over his shoulders, far
I rode on a horse Goldmane,
And they rode for three, four days;
And so, having arrived at the border of the kingdom,
410 Where the wise king Demyan ruled
Danilovich, we saw a rich
A tent pitched in a green meadow;
And they came out of the tent to them ... who? Klim
And Peter the princes. Ivan Tsarevich
Howled such an unspeakable meeting
Delighted; and brothers in the heart of envy
Snake crawled in when they firebird
With Princess Elena at Ivan-
The prince was seen in his hands:
420 It was unbearable for them to seem
Without anything to the father, while the brother
The smaller one returns to him with a firebird,
With a beautiful bride and a horse
Golden mane, and more
Half the kingdom upon arrival; and when
The father dies and takes over everything.
And so they plotted villainy:
Having accepted a friendly look, invited
They are in their tent to rest Ivan-
430 Tsarevich with Princess Elena
Beautiful. Both without suspicion
They entered the tent. Ivan Tsarevich, long
Dear tired, lay down and soon
fell into a deep sleep; that's what they were waiting for
Villain Brothers: Instantly Sharp Sword
They stabbed him in the chest, and in the field
They left him, and, taking the princess,
Firebird and horse Goldmane,
As good as they are, they hit the road.
440 Meanwhile, motionless, lifeless,
Drenched in blood, on a wide field
Ivan Tsarevich lay down. So gone
All day; already started to bend
To the west the sun; the field was empty;
And already over the dead with a black crow
Worn, croaking and loosening
Wide wings, predatory raven. - Suddenly,
Out of nowhere, Gray appeared
Wolf: he, having sensed a great misfortune,
450 Arrived in time for help; one more minute
And it would be too late. Guess which one
The raven had intent, he gave
He will descend on the dead body;
And only he went down, at once tsap
His tail; croaked the old raven.
"Let me go free, Gray Wolf" -
He shouted. “I won’t let you,” he answered, “
Until your crow brings
Living and dead water for me! And the raven
460 He ordered the crow to fly faster
For dead and living water.
The son flew, and the Gray Wolf, the father
Crumpled in order, very courteous with him
Began to talk, and the old raven
I could tell him enough
About what he saw in his long life
Between birds and between people. And listened
His with great attention Gray Wolf,
And his extraordinary wisdom
470 Marveled, but, however, all for the tail
He held him and sometimes so that he
I didn’t forget, I crushed it lightly
In clawed paws. The sun has set; night
Has come and gone; and took up
Dawn, when with living water and dead
In two bubbles a nimble crow
Appeared. The gray wolf took the bubbles
And the raven-father set free.
Then he came up with bubbles
480 To Ivan, who was lying motionless -
To the prince: first he is dead
Splashed with water - and in a minute the wound
Its closed, ossified
Lost in dead members, played
Blush on cheeks; he sprayed it
Living water - and he opened his eyes,
Moved, stretched, stood up
And he said: "How long did I sleep?"
“And you would sleep here forever, Ivan-
490 Tsarevich, - the Gray Wolf said, - when
Not me; now you have a direct service
I served; but this service, know
Last; from now on about myself
Take care yourself. And take from me
Advise and do as I tell you.
Your villainous brothers are no more
In the world; im a mighty sorcerer
Koschey the immortal head to both
Turned, and this sorcerer brought
500 On your kingdom sleep; and your parent
And all his subjects now
Sleep unawakened; your princess
With the firebird and the horse Goldenmane
The thief kidnapped Koschey; all three
Imprisoned in his magical castle.
But you, Ivan Tsarevich, for your
Don't be afraid of the bride; evil
No power over her
Cannot have: strong talisman
510 The princess has; let her out of the castle
It is forbidden; only death will save her
Koshcheev; but how to find that death, and I
I don't know that; about it baba
Yaga alone can only say. You,
Ivan Tsarevich owes this Baba
Yaga find; she is in a dense, dark forest,
In a gray, deaf forest lives in a hut
On chicken legs; into this forest
Nobody made a trail; into it
520 Neither a wild beast came, nor a bird
Didn't fly. Baba is driving around
Yaga in the whole heavenly place in a mortar,
Drives with an iron pestle, trace
Sweeps with a broom. From her
You will know one, Ivan Tsarevich,
How do you get Koshcheev's death.
And I'll tell you where you can find
The horse that will take you
Direct road to the dense forest to Baba
530 Yage. Go east from here;
You will come to a green meadow; in the middle
It grows three oaks; between oaks
An iron door buried in the ground
With ring; for that ring you rise
Go down that door and down the stairs;
It's locked behind twelve doors
Heroic horse; myself from the dungeon
He will run to you; that horse
Take it and go with God; from the road
540 He won't fall off. Well now I'm sorry
Ivan Tsarevich; if God commands
We meet with you, then it will be
Not otherwise, as at your wedding.
And the Gray Wolf rushed to the forest; after
Ivan Tsarevich watched him sadly;
The wolf, running up to the forest, turned around,
AT last time waved from afar
Tail and disappeared. And Ivan Tsarevich,
Facing east,
550 Went ahead. He goes day, goes
Another; on the third he comes to the meadow
Green; there are three oak trees in that meadow
grow up; among those oaks he finds
Cast iron door with an iron ring;
He raises the door; under that door
Steep stairs; he's down on it
Goes down, and in front of him below
Another door, cast iron, and strong
It's locked with a padlock.
560 And suddenly, he hears, the horse neighed; and neighing
It was so strong that, having torn off the noose,
The door crashed to the ground with a terrible thud;
And he sees what fell with her
Eleven more cast-iron doors.
Behind these iron doors
A long time ago, the heroic horse was locked
Was a sorcerer. Ivan Tsarevich whistled;
Sensing the rider, well done
Whistling heroic horse sprang from the stall
570 And ran, light, powerful, beautiful,
Eyes like stars, fiery nostrils,
Like a cloud mane, in a word, a horse is not a horse,
And a miracle. To find out what strength he is,
Ivan Tsarevich on his back
He led his hand, and under the mighty hand
The horse snored and staggered violently,
But he resisted, squeezing his hooves into the ground;
And in a human voice to Ivan -
He said to the prince: “Good knight,
580 Ivan Tsarevich, I like you,
The rider is necessary; ready for you
I faithfully serve;
Sit on me and with God on our way
Let's go; all the roads in the world
I know; just tell me where
I'll take you there, I'll take you there."
Ivan Tsarevich in a nutshell to the horse
He explained everything and, sitting on it,
Shouted. And the mighty horse soared
590 With joy neighing, on their hind legs;
His rider beats on the steep hips;
And the horse runs, the earth trembles under him;
He rushes above the standing trees,
Rushing below the walking clouds,
And spins through a wide valley,
And covers a narrow valley with a tail,
And with his chest he breaks through all the barriers,
Flying with an arrow and light feet
Bylinochki not bending down to the ground,
600 Do not pick up dust particles from the ground.
But, so galloping the whole day, finally
The horse was tired, the sweat ran from him
Streams, the whole was surrounded, like smoke,
He is a hot steam. Ivan Tsarevich,
To give him a breath, he went at a pace;
It was already evening; wide field
Ivan Tsarevich rode and beautiful
Enjoyed the sunset. Suddenly
He hears a wild cry; looks... so what?
610 Two goblin fight on the road
Bite, kick, each other
They poke their horns. To them Ivan Tsarevich
Arriving, he asked: “What do you have,
Guys, is it okay?" - "That's what -
One said. We got three treasures:
Brawler-baton, tablecloth-self-assembly
Yes, an invisibility hat - there are two of us;
How can we share equally? We
They argued, and a fight broke out; you
620 Reasonable person; give us advice
How to proceed?" - “And here's how, - they Ivan-
The prince answered. - I'm shooting an arrow
And you run after her; from the place where
She falls to the ground, back
Start running towards me; Who is first
Here it will be, he will take his choice
Two treasures; and the other to take one.
Do you agree? - "Agree" - shouted
horned; and got close. Onion
630 Pulling his tight, shot an arrow
Ivan Tsarevich: Goblin behind her
Rushed, bulging eyes, leaving
In place of the tablecloth, hat and club.
Then Ivan Tsarevich, taking under his arm
And a tablecloth and a club, on myself
Quietly put on the invisibility cap,
Became invisible and himself and the horse and far away
I went, leaving the stupid Leshay
It's up to you whether to start a fight again
640 Ile reconcile. Heroic horse
Ripe before the sun goes down
To the dense forest where Baba lived
Yaga. And, having entered the forest, Ivan Tsarevich
Marvels at the antiquity of its huge
Oaks and pines, dimly lit
Evening dawn; and everything in it is quiet:
The trees all stand like sleepy ones,
The leaf does not sway, does not move
Bylinka; nothing is alive
650 In the silent depths of the forest, not a bird
Between the branches, not a worm in the grass;
Only heard in the silence everywhere
The thundering clatter of a horse. Finally
Ivan Tsarevich went to the hut
On chicken legs. He said: "The hut,
Hut, stand back to the forest, to me
Get ahead." And in front of him is a hut
rolled over; he entered it;
Stopping at the door, he crossed himself
660 On all four sides, then,
As it should, he bowed and, with his eyes
Looking around the whole hut, I saw
That Baba lay on her floor
Yaga, put your feet on the ceiling
And in the corner of the head. Hearing a knock
At the door, she said, “Ugh! ugh! ugh!
What a marvel! Russian spirit here
So far, unheard of
Not seen by sight, but now Russian
670 The spirit already in the eyes is accomplished. Why
Come here, Ivan Tsarevich?
Willy-nilly or willingly? Until now
Not a wild animal has passed here,
Not a light bird has flown,
Not a dashing hero passed by;
How did God bring you here, Ivan-
Tsarevich? “Ah, you brainless witch! -
Ivan Tsarevich told Baba
Yage. - Eat first, drink
680 You me, young man; yes bed
Make a bed for me, let me sleep,
Then ask." And immediately Baba
Yaga, rising to his feet, Ivan -
Tsarevich properly washed
And evaporated in the bath, fed
And got drunk, and immediately to sleep
She laid her in bed, saying so:
“Sleep, good knight; wiser morning,
Than evening; it's calm here now
690 You will rest; tell me your need
me tomorrow; I know I can help."
Ivan Tsarevich, praying to God,
I lay down in bed and soon deep sleep
I fell asleep and slept until noon. get up,
Washing, dressing, he is Baba
Yagi explained in detail why
I drove to her in a dense forest; and Baba
Yaga answered him like this;
"Oh! good fellow, Ivan Tsarevich,
700 You started a serious business;
But do not worry, we will settle everything with God;
I'll teach you how Koshchei's death to you
Get the Immortal; please me
Listen: at sea on the Ocean,
On the great island in Buyan
There is an old oak; under this old oak tree
A chest bound with iron is buried;
In that chest lies a fluffy hare;
In that hare a gray duck sits;
710 And in that duck is an egg; death is in the egg
Koshcheev. You take the egg
And go with him to Koshchei, and when
You will come to his castle, you will see
That the serpent has a twelve-headed entrance
In that castle guards; you with this kite
Don't think to fight, you've got it
There is a club; she will take him away.
And you, wearing an invisibility hat,
Walk the straight road to Koshchei
720 Immortal; in a minute he will die,
How soon will you crush an egg with him.
Just look, don't forget when back
You will go, take the gusli-samogudy:
Only their game only your parent
Demyan Danilovich and all his
The state that fell asleep with him
They may be awakened. Well now
Forgive me, Ivan Tsarevich; God is with you;
Your good horse will find its own way;
730 When you accomplish your dangerous feat,
Then me, old woman, remember
Not bad, but good." Ivan Tsarevich,
Saying goodbye to Baba Yagoa, sat down
On a good horse, crossed himself,
He whistled valiantly, the horse rushed off,
And soon the dense forest behind Ivan -
Tsarevich disappeared in the distance, and soon
Flashed in front of a blue line
At the edge of the sky, the Ocean Sea,
740 Here he galloped to the sea of ​​Okianu
Ivan Tsarevich. Looking around, he sees
That there is a fishing net by the sea
And that in that seine there is a sea pike
Trembling. And suddenly he got that pike
Humanly says: "Ivan-
Prince, take me out of the net
And throw it into the sea; I'll be nice to you."
Ivan Tsarevich immediately asked for a pike
Complied, and she whipped her tail
750 As a sign of gratitude, she disappeared into the sea.
And Ivan Tsarevich looks at the sea
At a loss; on the very edge
Where the sky seemed to merge with him,
He sees a long strip of the island
Buyan turns black; he is not far;
But who will take it there? Suddenly a horse
He spoke: “About what, Ivan Tsarevich,
Thinking? About how to get there
Are we up to Buyan Island? Yes what
760 For difficulty? I am your ship sit
On me, but hold on tight to me,
Do not be shy, and we will swim in spirit.
And in the horse's mane Ivan Tsarevich
Hand entangled, steep hips
He squeezed the horse tightly with his legs; horse
He got furious and, jumping, sprang
From the steep shore to the sea abyss;
For a moment both he and the rider in the depths
Gone; suddenly parted with a noise
770 Sea swell, and the mighty surfaced
A horse from it with a brave rider;
And the horse began with hooves and chest
Beat on the waters and break through the waves,
And around him seethed, worried,
And foamed, and flew up with spray
Sea swell, and strong jumps,
Under strong hooves raking
Around the roaring wave, as light
Sailing a ship with a fair wind
780 The horse rushed forward, and a long trail
A hissing snake ran after him;
And soon he will reach Buyana Island
I swam and its sloping shore
Ran out of the sea, covered with foam.
Ivan Tsarevich did not hesitate; he,
Running a horse across a silk meadow
Walk, walk and honey grass
Pinch, went with a hasty step to the oak,
which grew on the seashore
790 At the height of an ant hill.
And, approaching the oak, Ivan Tsarevich
He was shaken by a heroic hand,
But the strong oak did not shake; he
He shook it again - the oak creaked; he
Still shook him and harder,
The oak swayed, and under it the roots
They stirred the earth; Ivan Tsarevich is here
He pulled it with all his might - and with a bang
He fell down, from the ground roots
800 From all sides, like snakes, rose,
And where the oak dug into the ground with them,
A deep hole opened up. In her
Ivan Tsarevich forged chest
Saw; immediately that chest from the pit
He pulled out, padlock knocked down the lock,
I took a hare lying there by the ears
And tore it apart; but just managed
He's a hare sever like out of him
Suddenly a duck fluttered out; fast
810 She took off and flew to the sea;
Ivan Tsarevich shot an arrow at her,
And aptly so that penetrated her
Through; quacking, the duck tumbled;
And suddenly an egg fell out of her
And straight into the sea; and went like a key
To the bottom. Ivan Tsarevich gasped; suddenly,
Out of nowhere, sea pike
Flashed on the water, then darted,
Whipping his tail, to the bottom, then again
820 I surfaced and, to the shore with an egg in my mouth
Quietly approaching, on the sand
She left the egg, then said:
“You see yourself now, Ivan Tsarevich,
That I was useful to you at the right time.
With this word, the pike swam away. Ivan-
The prince took the egg; and a mighty horse
From Buyan Island to the hard shore
Carried him back. And far
The horse galloped and soon galloped
830 To a steep mountain, at the height of which
Koshcheev castle was; her sole
It was surrounded by an iron wall;
And at the gates of that iron wall
The twelve-headed serpent lay;
And from his twelve heads
Always six slept, six did not sleep, during the day
And at night twice for supervision
changing; but in view of the iron gate
No one in the distance stop
840 I didn't dare; the kite rose, and from the tooth
There was no salvation for him - he
Was unharmed and only himself
Could kill: someone else's power to cope
No one could with him. But the horse
Was careful; he brought Ivan
Tsarevich to the mountain from the side,
Opposite the gate in which the serpent
Lying and guarding; slowly
Ivan Tsarevich in an invisibility cap
850 Drove up to the snake; six of his heads
All eyes looked around,
Mouth gaping, teeth bared; six
Other heads on outstretched necks
Lying on the ground without moving
And, embraced by sleep, they snored. Here
Ivan Tsarevich, pushing the baton,
Hanging quietly on the saddle,
Whispered to her: “Start!” Didn't take long
Club to think, immediately jump from the saddle,
860 I rushed at the snake, and well,
On the heads and sleeping and not sleeping
Nail. He hissed, got angry, started
There, here to rush; a club
He beats himself and beats him;
As soon as he opens his mouth,
To grab her - but no, please
Don't rush, she
He scratches another face; all he
Twelve mouths will open to her
870 Catch - she is in all his teeth,
Bared as if for show
Walks and brushes all teeth; howling
And wrinkling all their noses, he will pinch
All mouths and paws grab a baton
She will try - then she will
Honors all twelve nape;
Serpent in a frenzy, like a madman,
Threw, howled, tumbled, out of anger
Breathed fire, gnawed the earth - all in vain!
880 Slowly, distinctly, calmly,
No misses, over him with his baton
Work continues, and his,
Like a diligent flail on the current, it threshes;
The serpent finally got so angry that he started
Gnawing on yourself and, claws in the chest
I suddenly launched myself, pulled so hard,
What was torn in two and, with a screech
Rushing to the ground, he died. club
Work on the dead to continue
890 I wanted my own, as over a living one; but
Ivan Tsarevich said to her: “Enough!”
And in an instant she, as if she had never been
Nothing, hung on the saddle. Ivan-
Prince, leaving the horse at the gate
And spread out the self-assembled tablecloth
At his feet, so that the tired horse can
Eat and drink to your heart's content
Went, covered with a cap of invisibility,
With a club just in case and with an egg
900 In Koshcheev castle. It was hard
Climb him to the top of the mountain;
Finally got to the castle
Koshcheeva Ivan Tsarevich. Suddenly
He hears that in the garden not far
The gusli-samogudy are playing; to the garden
When he entered, he actually saw
That the harp on the oak hung and played
And that under the oak is Elena herself
Beautiful sat, immersed
910 In thought. Taking off the invisibility cap
He immediately appeared to her and by hand
He signaled for her to keep quiet. Her
Then he whispered in his ear: "I am death
Brought to Koshcheev; you wait
Me in this place; I'm with him soon
I will manage and return; And we
We'll leave immediately." Ivan is here
Tsarevich, again the cap of invisibility
Having put it on, I wanted to go look for Koshchei
920 Immortal in his magic castle
But he himself complained. coming closer
He stood before Tsarina Elena
Beautiful and began to reproach her
Her sadness and say: "Ivan-
Your prince will not come to you;
We can't resurrect him. But what
I'm not your fiancé, tell yourself
My beautiful princess full well
To be stubborn, stubbornness will not help;
930 It will not snatch you from my hands;
I’m already ... ”Ivan whispered to the baton-
Prince: "Begin!" And began
She ruffled Koshchei's back. With a cry
Like mad, mangle and jump
He started, and Ivan Tsarevich, hats
Without removing it, he began to say: “Add,
Add, club; serve him well
Dog: do not steal other people's brides;
Don't bother with your wolf face
940 And stupid matchmaking with its beautiful
Princesses; do not induce evil sleep
To kingdoms! Hit him harder, club!" -
“Yes, where are you! Show yourself! shouted Koschey. -
Who are you? - "And that's who!" - answered
Ivan Tsarevich, cap of invisibility
Having removed from his head, and at the same moment
He hit the ground with an egg; it
Shattered to smithereens; Koschei the Deathless
Rolled over and spun around.
950 Ivan Tsarevich from the garden with the princess
Elena the Beautiful came out, take
Do not forget the gusli-samogudy,
Firebird and horse Goldmane.
When did they come down from the steep mountain
And, sitting on horses, on the way back
Let's go, mountain, terribly crackling,
Fell with a lock, and in place that
A lake appeared, and for a long time black
Smoke swirled above him, spreading
960 All over the neighborhood with a great stench.
Meanwhile, Ivan Tsarevich,
Horses to take them to freedom, as they
We ourselves wanted to have fun with a beautiful
The bride rode. Self-assembly tablecloth
Served them diligently,
And a delicious breakfast was always prepared for them,
Lunch and dinner at the proper hour:
On the fragrant ant in the morning, at noon
Under a thick-topped tree, at night
970 Under the silk tent that was
Always from two separate halves
Compiled. And at every meal
They played the gusli-samogudy; at night
The firebird shone for them, and the club
She stood on watch in front of the tent;
The horses, making friends, walked together,
Riding through the velvet meadow
Or they plucked the dewy grass,
Ile, laying his head in turn
980 On each other's backs, they slept peacefully.
So they rode by way-expensive
And finally arrived in that kingdom,
Which was ruled by the father of Ivan-
Tsarevich, the wise king Demyan
Danilovich. And the kingdom is everything, from the most
Its borders to the royal palace,
It was embraced by an unawakening sleep;
And wherever they passed, all
It slept there; in the field in front of the plow
990 There were sleeping oxen; near them
With his whip, waved and asleep
On the stroke, the plowman was asleep; among the big
The rider slept on the road, and the dust,
Rising, sleepy, motionless club
Stood; there was a dead dream in the air;
On the trees the leaves dozed silently;
And in the branches sleepy birds were silent;
In the villages, in the cities everything was quiet,
As if in a coffin: people go home,
1000 On the streets, walking, sitting, standing,
And everything is with them: dogs, cats, chickens,
In the stables of the horse, in the folds of the sheep,
And flies on the walls, and smoke in the pipes -
Everything was asleep. So to the father's capital
Ivan Tsarevich finally arrived

And, riding up to the wide royal court,
They are two corpses lying on it
They saw: they were Klim and Peter
1010 The princes killed by Koshchei.
Ivan Tsarevich, past the guard,
Standing in the parade in a sleepy formation,
Passed, up the stairs novelized the bride
To the royal chambers. Was in the palace
On the occasion of the arrival of two senior
King's sons, a rich feast
At the very hour when he killed both
Princes and a dream for all the people
Navel Koschei: the whole feast in an instant
1020 Then he fell asleep, who was sitting, who was
Walked, who danced; and in this dream
Ivan Tsarevich also found them all;
Demyan Danilovich slept standing up; beside
The king was snored by the minister of his court
With an open mouth, with an unsmoked mouth
report; and court officials
All stretched out, sleepy stood
Before the king, pointing at him
Your eyes, dimmed from sleep,
1030 With servility on sleepy faces,
With a sleepy smile on her lips.
Ivan Tsarevich, approached with the princess
Elena the Beautiful to the king,
He said: "Play, gusli-samogudy";
And the gusli-samogudy began to play ...
Suddenly everything woke up, everything spoke,
Jumped and danced; like
The feast was not interrupted for a minute.
And Tsar Demyan Danilovich, seeing
1040 What is in front of him with Princess Elena
Ivan Tsarevich stands beautiful,
His beloved son, barely quite
Not mad: he laughed, cried,
He looked at his son, not taking his eyes off,
And kissed him, and had mercy,
And in the end, he was so happy
With hands on hips, and went to dance
With Princess Elena the Beautiful.
Then he ordered the cannons to be fired,
1050 Ring the bells and sings
To announce to the capital that he has returned
Ivan Tsarevich, what is half his kingdom to him
Now Tsar Demyan yields
Danilovich, what is his name
An heir that tomorrow his marriage
It will be done with Tsarina Elena
In the court church and that Tsar Demyan
Danilovich calls all his people
At the wedding to the son, all the military, civilians,
1060 Ministers, generals, all nobles
The rich, all the nobles of small estates,
Merchants, philistines, ordinary people, and even
All the poor. And the next day
Demyan led the bride and groom
Danilovich to the crown; when will they
Remarried, immediately congratulations
They brought all the noble ranks
Both sexes; and the people in the square
Palace that sometimes boiled like the sea;
1070 When the king went out with the young
To him on the golden balcony, from the cry:
"Long live our sovereign Demyan

Forever renounced and entered
On the path of virtue - a club, in a word,
Incredible during the feast
To the king, guests and the city to everything

Everything in the palace was in full swing, the guests ate
And they drank so that from their ruddy faces
Sweat rolled down; here gusli-samogudy
Showed all their zeal:
1130 When they did not need an orchestra, and the guests
Already heard such music,
Which they never dream of
Didn't dream. But when, having filled
A healthy cup of wine, Tsar Demyan
Danilovich wanted to proclaim
Himself many years to the newlyweds, loudly
A trumpet sounded in the square;
Everyone was amazed, everyone was dumbfounded;
The king with the young himself goes to the window,
1140 And what is their eyes?
Eight horse carriage (trumpeter
With a pipe in front) to the porch of the palace
A crowd of people gallops through the street;
And that carriage is golden; goats

Six walkers on the sides; liveries
They are made of gray cloth, at the seams
Basons; coat of arms on carriage doors:

Ivanushka, will you please us with something? Do you remember anything else from your fairy tale?

Ivan:I have a feeling that the kidnapper from my fairy tale was some beautiful bird with wonderful feathers. But is this possible: a beautiful bird - and suddenly a kidnapper?

Teacher:Perhaps Ivanushka! There is a bird that loves golden apples very much. Guys, maybe you can tell Ivan what kind of fairy tale this is?

Let's open notebooks in lesson 6 and write down the name of the fairy tale "Ivan Tsarevich and the Gray Wolf" (m-f 01. The name of the fairy tale).

Well, well, Ivanushka, listen to the tale carefully.

"Ivan Tsarevich and the Grey Wolf".

Once upon a time there was Tsar Berendey, he had three sons, the youngest was called Ivan.

And the king had a magnificent garden; an apple tree with golden apples grew in that garden.

Someone began to visit the royal garden, steal golden apples. The king felt sorry for his garden. He sends guards there. No guards can keep track of the kidnapper.

The king stopped drinking and eating, he became homesick. Father's sons console:

- Our dear father, do not be sad, we ourselves will begin to guard the garden.

Elder son says:

Today it's my turn, I'll go guard the garden from the kidnapper.

The eldest son left. No matter how much he walked in the evening, he did not follow anyone, he fell on the soft grass and fell asleep.

In the morning the king asks him:

Well, won't you please me: have you seen the kidnapper?

No, dear father, he didn’t sleep all night, didn’t close his eyes, but didn’t see anyone.

The next night the middle son went to watch and also slept all night, and in the morning he said that he had not seen the kidnapper.

· What can you say about Ivan's brothers? (Lazy, irresponsible, they deceived the priest ...)

The time has come for the younger brother to go guard. Ivan went - the prince to guard the fathers' garden and was even afraid to sit down, not to lie down. As his sleep is overwhelmed, he will wash himself with dew from the grass, sleep and out of sight.

Half of the night has passed, and it seems to him: there is light in the garden. Lighter and brighter. The whole garden was lit up. He sees - the Firebird sat on the apple tree and pecks golden apples.(mf 02. Kidnapper!).

Ivan Tsarevich quietly crawled up to the apple tree and caught the bird by the tail.(m-f 03. Ivan Tsarevich catches the firebird). The Firebird started up and flew away, leaving one feather from its tail in his hand.

The next morning, Ivan Tsarevich comes to his father.

Well, my dear Vanya, have you seen the kidnapper?

Dear father, I didn’t catch, but I traced who was ruining our garden. I brought you a memory from the kidnapper. This, father, is the Firebird.

The king took this pen and from that time began to drink and eat, and not to know sadness.

· What can we say about Ivan? (He renders the father obedience, respect and reverence. He is one of the three sons who fulfilled the order of the father. Ivanushka was even afraid to sit down at night, but the caxon overcame him, he washed himself with dew water and again guarded the garden).

At one fine time, the tsar-father thought about this Firebird. He called his sons(m-f 04. The king and sons) and tells them:

- My dear children, you would saddle good horses, you would travel around the wide world, you would know places, you would not attack the Firebird anywhere;

The children bowed to their father, saddled the good horses and set off on their journey: the eldest in one direction, the middle one in the other, and Ivan Tsarevich in the third direction.

Ivan Tsarevich rode for a long time, or a short one. The day was summer. Tired Ivan Tsarevich(m-f 05. Ivanushka got tired), got off the horse, confused him, and he fell down to sleep.

How much, how little time has passed, Ivan Tsarevich woke up, he sees that the horse is gone. He went to look for him, walked, walked and found his horse - only gnawed bones. Ivan Tsarevich was sad: where without a horse to go so far?

"Well, he thinks, - he took it - there is nothing to do." And he went on foot.

Walked, walked, tired to death. He sat down on the soft grass and mourned, sitting.

Out of nowhere, a gray wolf runs towards him:

What, Ivan Tsarevich, are you sitting down, saddened, hung your head?

How can I not be sad, gray wolf? I was left without a good horse.

It was I, Ivan Tsarevich, who ate your horse. I pity you! Tell me, why did you go far, where are you going?

Father sent me to travel around the world, to find the Firebird(mf 06. Firebird).

Fu, fu, on your good horse in three years you will not reach fire birds. I only know where she lives. So be it - I ate your horse, I will serve you faithfully. Get on top of me and hold on tight.

Ivan Tsarevich sat on him, the gray wolf and galloped - he misses the blue forests past his eyes, sweeps the lakes with his tail(mf 07/video. Ivan rides a wolf: 24 s). How long, how short, they run to a high fortress. Gray wolf says:

- Listen to me, Ivan Tsarevich, remember: climb over the wall, do not be afraid - the hour is good, all the watchmen are sleeping. You will see a window in the tower, there is a golden cage on the window, and the Firebird sits in the cage. You take a bird, put it in your bosom, but look, don’t touch the cages!

Ivan Tsarevich climbed over the wall, saw this tower - there is a golden cage on the window, the Firebird sits in the cage. He took the bird, put it in his bosom, and stared at the cage. His heart flared up: “Oh, what a golden, precious one! How can you not take one!” And he forgot that the wolf punished him. As soon as he touched the cage, a sound went through the fortress: the trumpets blew, the drums beat, the guards woke up, grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and led him to Tsar Afron. King Afron became angry and asked:

— Whose are you, where are you from?

I am Tsar Berendey's son, Ivan Tsarevich.

- Oh, what a shame! Yes, the king's son went to steal.

- And what about when your bird flew, our garden was ruined?

And you would have come to me, honestly asked, I would have given it like that, out of respect for your parent, Tsar Berendey. And now in all cities I will let a bad reputation about you ... Well, okay, if you do me a favor, I will forgive you. In such and such a kingdom, King Kusman has a golden-maned horse. Bring him to me, then I'll give you the Firebird with the cage.

Ivan Tsarevich got angry and went to the gray wolf. And the wolf to him:

“I told you not to move the cage!” Why didn't you listen to my order?

- Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

- Well, I'm sorry ... Okay, sit on me. I took hold of the tug, don't say that it's not hefty.

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich(m-f 08. Ivan rides a wolf). How long, how short, they reach the fortress where the golden-maned horse stands.

“Climb, Ivan Tsarevich, the guards are sleeping over the wall, go to the stable, take the horse, but don’t touch the bridle!”

Ivan Tsarevich climbed into the fortress, where all the watchmen sleep, went to the stable, caught the golden-maned horse(mf 09. Ivan kidnaps a horse),Yes, he coveted the bridle - it was removed with gold, expensive stones; in it the golden-maned horse can only walk.

Ivan Tsarevich touched the bridle, a sound went throughout the fortress: the trumpets blew, the drums beat, the watchmen woke up (m-f 10. Guards came running here...), grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and took him to Tsar Kusman.

— Whose are you, where are you from?

- I'm Ivan Tsarevich.

Eka, what foolish things he took up - to steal a horse! An ordinary man will not agree to this.

Well, I'll forgive you, Ivan Tsarevich, if you do me a favor. The king of Dalmat has a daughter, Elena the Beautiful. Kidnap her, bring her to me, I will give you a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich became even more sad and went to the gray wolf.

I told you, Ivan Tsarevich, don't touch the bridle! You did not listen to my order.

“Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

- Well, I'm sorry ... Come on, sit on my back(mf 11. Ivan Tsarevich rides a wolf) .

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich. They run to Tsar Dalmat. Helen the Beautiful walks in his fortress in the garden(12. Elena the Beautiful walks in the garden)with mothers and nannies. gray wolf says:

“This time I won’t let you in, I’ll go myself.” And you go back by the way, dear, I'll catch up with you soon.

Ivan Tsarevich went back along the road, and the gray wolf jumped over the wall - and into the garden. He sat down behind a bush and looked: Elena the Beautiful came out with her mothers, nannies(mf 13. The wolf is watching Elena the Beautiful).She walked and walked and only lagged behind the mothers and nannies, the gray wolf grabbed Elena the Beautiful, threw her over her back - and ran away.

Ivan goes along the road, suddenly a gray wolf overtakes him, Elena the Beautiful sits on him (m-f 14. Elena the Beautiful on a gray wolf).Ivan Tsarevich was delighted, and the gray wolf to him:

- Get on me quickly, as if there was no pursuit for us.

The gray wolf rushed with Ivan Tsarevich, with Elena the Beautiful way back(mf 15. Elena the Beautiful and Ivan Tsarevich on a gray wolf)- the blue forests pass by the eyes, rivers, lakes are swept by the tail. How long, how short, they run to King Kusman. The gray wolf asks:

- What, Ivan Tsarevich, fell silent, mourned?(mf 16. Sadness of Ivan Tsarevich)

“But how can I, gray wolf, not be sad? How can I part with such beauty? How will I change Elena the Beautiful for a horse?

The gray wolf says:

I will not part you with such beauty - we will hide it somewhere, and I will turn into Elena the Beautiful, you and lead me to the king(mf 17/video. The wolf assumes the form of Helen the Beautiful: 53 s).

Here they hid Elena the Beautiful in a forest hut. The gray wolf turned over his head and became exactly like Elena the Beautiful. Ivan Tsarevich took him to Tsar Kusman. The king was delighted, began to thank him(mf 18. Ivan Tsarevich and the wolf in front of Tsar Kusman):

“Thank you, Ivan Tsarevich, for getting me a bride. Get a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich mounted this horse and rode after Elena the Beautiful. He took her, put her on a horse, and they ride along the road.

And Tsar Kusman arranged a wedding, feasted all day until evening, and when he had to go to bed, he took Elena the Beautiful to the bedroom, but only lay down with her on the bed, looking - a wolf's face instead of a young wife (mf 19. Elena the Beautiful is a wolf!). The king fell out of bed with fear, and the wolf ran away (mf 20. And the wolf fled away ...).

The gray wolf catches up with Ivan Tsarevich and asks:

What was Ivan Tsarevich thinking about?

How can I not think? It is a pity to part with such a treasure - a golden-maned horse, to change it for the Firebird.

Don't worry, I will help you.

Here they reach the king Afron. wolf and says:

Hide this horse and Elena the Beautiful, and I will turn into a horse with a golden mane, you and lead me to King Afron.

They hid Elena the Beautiful and the golden-maned horse in the forest. The gray wolf threw itself over his back, turned into a golden-maned horse. Ivan Tsarevich led him to Tsar Afron. The king was delighted and gave him the Firebird with a golden cage.

Ivan Tsarevich returned on foot to the forest, put Elena the Beautiful on a golden-maned horse, took a golden cage with a Firebird and rode along the road to his native side.(

And King Afron ordered to bring a gift horse to him and just wanted to sit on it - the horse turned into a gray wolf. The king, out of fear, where he stood, fell there, and the gray wolf took to his heels and soon caught up with Ivan Tsarevich(mf 21. The wolf catches up with Ivan - Tsarevich).

Don't say goodbye to me forever, I'll still be useful to you.

Ivaa Tsarevich thinks: “Where else can you be useful? All my desires are fulfilled." He sat on a golden-maned horse, and again they rode with Elena the Beautiful, with the Firebird.

He reached his edges, he decided to take a midday meal. He had some bread with him. Well, they ate, drank spring water and lay down to rest.

Barely waiting for the end, Ivanushka almost shouts: “Yes, yes !!! This is my fairy tale! How could I forget my true friend and my bride - Elena the Beautiful?

Teacher: Ivanushka, and I was very upset that the hero of this fairy tale turned out to be exactly you.

Ivan:O.O., what could upset you so much? The fairy tale has a happy ending! Ivan got the Firebird, the golden-maned horse and Elena the Beautiful!!!

Teacher:Ivanushka, firstly, this is not the end of the tale, and secondly, think about how Ivan Tsarevich got himself a firebird, a golden-maned horse, Elena the Beautiful?

· Why is the firebird called "the thief" in the fairy tale?

(She was stealing golden apples in someone else's garden).

Did Ivan Tsarevich ask permission when he took the firebird, the horse, Elena the Beautiful?

Ivan:So what happens, guys, Ivan Tsarevich, i.e. me, goes on a journey for a kidnapper and becomes a thief of someone else's property?

Teacher:It turns out so, Ivanushka! But what about the father's blessing? Did he bless you for this? But there is something else that upsets me even more.

· Guys, do you understand what else upset me in Ivanushka's behavior?

(children's answers)

That's right, guys, first, disobedience. Ivanushka, constantly disobeyed the wolf.

Remember, in the fairy tale "Ivan the Peasant's Son", the brothers in the cave took only what the old man told them: damask swords, but they did not covet other treasures.

· Is Ivan a prince?(He coveted a golden cage and a golden bridle).

· What was the cause of the troubles of Ivan - Tsarevich? (Disobedience and greed).

Again I remembered the Russian folk proverb: "Greed is the beginning of every grief."

Ivan:O.O., don't scare me! That Ivan is still in trouble?

U-l:You, Ivanushka, though naughty, but kind. For this, probably, the wolf helped you. No wonder people say: "Good brotherhood is better than wealth."

Reading part 2 of the story.

As soon as Ivan Tsarevich fell asleep, his brothers run into him(mf 22. Brothers are coming).They traveled to other lands, looking for the Firebird, returned empty-handed. They drove in and saw that everything had been obtained from Ivan Tsarevich. Here is what they had to say:

Let's kill our brother, all the booty will be ours.

They decided and killed Ivan Tsarevich. They sat on a golden-maned horse, took the Firebird, put Elena the Beautiful on the horse and frightened her:

Don't say anything at home!(mf 23. The brothers frighten Elena the Beautiful)

Tsarevich Ivan lies dead, crows are already flying over him. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a gray wolf came running(mf 24. wolf over Ivan Tsarevich)and grabbed a raven with a crow.

You are a flyer, a raven, for living and dead water. Bring me living and dead water, then I will let your crow go.

The raven, there is nothing to do, flew away, and the wolf is holding his little crow. How long did the raven fly, how short, did it bring living and dead water. The gray wolf sprinkled dead water on the wounds of Ivan Tsarevich, the wounds healed; sprinkled it with living water - Ivan came to life.

Oh, I slept soundly!(mf 25. Oh, and I slept for a long time)

You slept soundly,” says the gray wolf. If it wasn't for me, I wouldn't have woken up at all. Your brothers killed you and took away all your booty. Get on me quickly!

They rode in pursuit and overtook both brothers. Then the gray wolf tore them to pieces and scattered the pieces across the field.

Ivan Tsarevich bowed to the gray wolf and said goodbye to him forever.

Ivan Tsarevich returned home on a golden-maned horse, brought the Firebird to his father, and his bride, Elena the Beautiful. Tsar Berendey was delighted, and began to ask his son. Ivan Tsarevich began to tell how the gray wolf helped him get prey, and how the brothers killed him sleepy, and how the gray wolf tore them to pieces.

Tsar Berendey grieved and was soon consoled. And Ivan Tsarevich married Elena the Beautiful, and they began to live and live and not know grief.

After reading.

AND.Something to me, O.O., became completely unhappy. I pity my brothers!

Teacher : Ivanushka, the Lord Himself in the Bible said: “... all who take the sword will perish by the sword ».

Unfortunately, your brothers were not familiar with the Bible, but this does not justify them: the Truth of God is written in our hearts. They knew that it was impossible to kill other people, especially innocent ones, and even more so a brother. God's law was fulfilled on them: "those who take the sword will perish by the sword," i.e. the evil that a person has conceived against another will return to him!

I. O. O.,I am more and more beginning to understand how dangerous it is not to follow the Truth of God.

Think about why all these troubles happened to Ivan?

Ivan:Because he did not obey the wolf!

Teacher:And if you look even deeper! Guys, tell Ivanushka, how did his troubles begin?

(Bring the guys to the idea that all Ivan's troubles began precisely with the fact that he obeyed the wolf and went kidnap and the firebird, and the horse, and Elena the Beautiful).

Ivan:O.O., I’m completely confused: on the one hand, it’s bad that Ivan didn’t obey the wolf, on the other hand, it’s again bad that he obeyed him. And that’s bad and that’s bad.

Teacher:Guys, tell me what Ivanushka should have done? (After the children's answers m-f 26/video. Another way of solving: 24 p.)

Teacher:Ivanushka, this is how it happens in life: one dishonest act pulls another dishonest act.

Did you act according to the Truth, getting the firebird, the golden-maned horse, Helen the Wise?

But the king is just called to keep the True Truth on earth.

Ivan:How can I know which Truth is True, if everyone has their own Truth.

Teacher: No, Ivanushka, The truth is one for all. I think, Ivanushka, it is not by chance that you ended up with us. After all, you, Ivan Tsarevich, to accept the kingdom after the father, your brothers turned out to be worthless people, for this they paid with their lives.

Can a king who does not know or does not want to know the True Truth be its custodian?

Ivan:But in order to keep the Truth of God, you must first know it!

Teacher:Ivanushka, I already said that the Truth of God is written in our hearts, and also in the Book of Books - the Bible, which was written by God Himself through His prophets. In this Holy Book, the Lord reveals to us the laws, by living by which a person protects himself and his loved ones from evil.

Orthodox Christians firmly believe that by living according to the Truth of God, a person saves himself and his loved ones from many troubles.

· What do you think is the Truth of God? (To honor parents, to help them in everything, not to deceive anyone, not to take someone else's, not to envy, not to offend anyone, help each other, be kind, merciful, generous ...)

Ivan: And only Orthodox Christians should be so good?

Teacher:Guys, what do you think? (Answers of children).

Ivan:O.O., could you lend me a Bible to read?

Teacher:Ivanushka, I'm for you I will give Bible, but remember: The Bible is not a fairy tale that you can take and read.

For true Christians, the Bible is a desktop book that they study throughout their lives. It is not easy for them to read at least one or two or three chapters every day, but they reflect on what they have read. And the holy fathers, who wrote interpretations of the Holy Scriptures, help them in this.

Ivanushka, I want to give you another gift.

· Guys, how does any fairy tale end?

That's right - a feast for the whole world !!!

So, we invite you to the lesson-game! But first, so that you don’t get lost again, we will draw up a route map for you.

"Thirtieth Kingdom", which will help you get into your fairy tale.

Someone began to visit the royal garden, steal golden apples. The king felt sorry for his garden. He sends guards there. No guards can keep track of the kidnapper.

The king stopped drinking and eating, he became homesick. Father's sons console:

Our dear father, do not be sad, we ourselves will guard the garden.

Elder son says:

Today it's my turn, I'll go guard the garden from the kidnapper.

The eldest son left. No matter how much he walked in the evening, he did not follow anyone, he fell on the soft grass and fell asleep.

In the morning the king asks him:

Well, won't you please me: have you seen the kidnapper?

No, dear father, he didn’t sleep all night, didn’t close his eyes, but didn’t see anyone.

The next night the middle son went to watch and also slept all night, and in the morning he said that he had not seen the kidnapper.

The time has come for the younger brother to go guard. Ivan Tsarevich went to guard his fathers garden and was even afraid to sit down, let alone lie down. As his sleep is overwhelmed, he will wash himself with dew from the grass, sleep and out of sight.

Half of the night has passed, and it seems to him: there is light in the garden. Lighter and brighter. The whole garden was lit up. He sees the Firebird sitting on the apple tree and pecking at the golden apples.

Ivan Tsarevich quietly crawled up to the apple tree and caught the bird by the tail. The Firebird started up and flew away, leaving one feather from its tail in his hand.

The next morning, Ivan Tsarevich comes to his father.

Well, my dear Vanya, have you seen the kidnapper?

Dear father, I didn’t catch, but I traced who was ruining our garden. I brought you a memory from the kidnapper. This is, father. Firebird.

The king took this pen and from that time began to drink and eat, and not to know sadness. At one fine time, he thought about this about the Firebird.

He called his sons and said to them:

My dear children, if you saddled good horses, you would travel around the wide world, you would know places, you would not attack the Firebird anywhere.

The children bowed to their father, saddled the good horses and set off on their journey: the eldest in one direction, the middle one in the other, and Ivan Tsarevich in the third direction.

Ivan Tsarevich rode for a long time, or a short one. The day was summer. Ivan Tsarevich got tired, dismounted from his horse, confused him, and he himself fell to sleep.

How much, how little time has passed, Ivan Tsarevich woke up, he sees - there is no horse. He went to look for him, walked, walked and found his horse - only gnawed bones.

Ivan Tsarevich was sad: where without a horse to go so far?

"Well, he thinks, he took it - there is nothing to do."

And he went on foot. Walked, walked, tired to death. He sat down on the soft grass and mourned, sitting. Out of nowhere, a gray wolf runs towards him:

What, Ivan Tsarevich, are you sitting down, hung your head?

How can I not be sad, gray wolf? I was left without a good horse.

It was I, Ivan Tsarevich, who ate your horse... I feel sorry for you! Tell me, why did you go far, where are you going?

Father sent me to travel around the world, to find the Firebird.

Fu, fu, you won't get to the Firebird in three years on your good horse. I alone know where she lives. So be it - I ate your horse, I will serve you faithfully. Get on top of me and hold on tight.

Ivan Tsarevich sat on him, the gray wolf and galloped - he misses the blue forests past his eyes, sweeps the lakes with his tail. How long, how short, they run to a high fortress. Gray wolf says:

Listen to me, Ivan Tsarevich, remember: climb over the wall, do not be afraid - the hour is good, all the watchmen are sleeping. You will see a window in the tower, there is a golden cage on the window, and the Firebird sits in the cage. You take a bird, put it in your bosom, but don’t touch the cages!

Ivan Tsarevich climbed over the wall, saw this tower - there is a golden cage on the window, the Firebird sits in the cage. He took the bird, put it in his bosom, and stared at the cage. His heart flared up: "Oh, what a golden, precious one! How can one not take such a one!" And he forgot that the wolf punished him. As soon as he touched the cage, a sound went through the fortress: the trumpets blew, the drums beat, the watchmen woke up, grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and led him to Tsar Afron.

King Afron became angry and asked:

Whose are you, where are you from?

I am Tsar Berendey's son, Ivan Tsarevich.

Oh, what a shame! Yes, the king's son went to steal.

But what, when your bird flew, our garden was ruined?

And you would have come to me, honestly asked, I would have given it like that, out of respect for your parent, Tsar Berendey. And now in all cities I will let a bad reputation about you ... Well, okay, if you do me a favor, I will forgive you. In such and such a kingdom, King Kusman has a golden-maned horse. Bring him to me, then I'll give you the Firebird with the cage.

Ivan Tsarevich got angry and went to the gray wolf. And the wolf to him:

I told you not to move the cage! Why didn't you listen to my order?

Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

That's it, I'm sorry ... Okay, sit on me. I took hold of the tug, don't say that it's not hefty.

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich. How long, how short, they reach the fortress where the golden-maned horse stands.

Climb, Ivan Tsarevich, over the wall, the watchmen are sleeping, go to the stable, take the horse, but don’t touch the bridle!

Ivan Tsarevich climbed into the fortress, where all the watchmen were sleeping, went into the stable, caught a golden-maned horse, and coveted the bridle - it was set with gold and expensive stones; in it the golden-maned horse can only walk.

Ivan Tsarevich touched the bridle, a sound spread throughout the fortress: trumpets blew, drums beat, the watchmen woke up, grabbed Ivan Tsarevich and led him to Tsar Kusman.

Whose are you, where are you from?

I am Ivan Tsarevich.

Eka, what stupid things he took up - to steal a horse! An ordinary man will not agree to this. Well, I'll forgive you, Ivan Tsarevich, if you do me a favor. The king of Dalmat has a daughter, Elena the Beautiful. Kidnap her, bring her to me, I will give you a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich became even more mournful and went to the gray wolf.

I told you, Ivan Tsarevich, don't touch the bridle! You did not listen to my order.

Well, forgive me, forgive me, gray wolf.

I'm sorry... Come on, sit on my back.

Again the gray wolf galloped with Ivan Tsarevich. They run to the king of Dalmat. In his fortress in the garden, Elena the Beautiful walks with her mothers and nannies. gray wolf says:

This time I won't let you in, I'll go myself. And you go back by way, dear, I'll catch up with you soon.

Ivan Tsarevich went back along the road, and the gray wolf jumped over the wall - and into the garden. He sat down behind a bush and looked: Elena the Beautiful came out with her mothers, nannies. She walked and walked, and only lagged behind the mothers and nannies, the gray wolf grabbed Elena the Beautiful, threw her over her back - and ran away.

Ivan Tsarevich is on his way, suddenly a gray wolf overtakes him, Elena the Beautiful is sitting on him. Ivan Tsarevich was delighted, and the gray wolf to him:

Get on me quickly, as if there was no pursuit for us.

The gray wolf rushed off with Ivan Tsarevich, with Elena the Beautiful on the way back - the blue forests pass by the eyes, the rivers, the lakes sweep with its tail. How long, how short, they run to King Kusman. The gray wolf asks:

What, Ivan Tsarevich, fell silent, mourned?

But how can I, gray wolf, not be sad? How can I part with such beauty? How will I change Elena the Beautiful for a horse?

The gray wolf says:

I will not part you with such beauty - let's hide it somewhere, and I will turn into Elena the Beautiful, you and lead me to the king.

Here they hid Elena the Beautiful in a forest hut. The gray wolf turned over his head and became exactly like Elena the Beautiful. Ivan Tsarevich took him to Tsar Kusman. The king was delighted, began to thank him:

Thank you, Ivan Tsarevich, for getting me a bride. Get a golden-maned horse with a bridle.

Ivan Tsarevich mounted this horse and rode after Elena the Beautiful. He took her, put her on a horse, and they ride along the road.

And Tsar Kusman arranged a wedding, feasted all day until evening, and how should one go to bed, he took Elena the Beautiful to the bedroom, but only lay down with her on the bed, looking - a wolf's face instead of a young wife? The king fell out of bed with fear, and the wolf ran away.

The gray wolf catches up with Ivan Tsarevich and asks:

What was Ivan Tsarevich thinking about?

How can I not think? It is a pity to part with such a treasure - a golden-maned horse, to change it for the Firebird.

Don't worry, I will help you.

Here they reach the king Afron. wolf and says:

Hide this horse and Elena the Beautiful, and I will turn into a horse with a golden mane, you and lead me to King Afron.

They hid Elena the Beautiful and the golden-maned horse in the forest. The gray wolf threw itself over his back, turned into a golden-maned horse. Ivan Tsarevich led him to Tsar Afron. The king was delighted and gave him the Firebird with a golden cage.

Ivan Tsarevich returned on foot to the forest, put Elena the Beautiful on a golden-maned horse, took a golden cage with a Firebird and rode along the road to his native side.

And King Afron ordered to bring a gift horse to him and just wanted to sit on it - the horse turned into a gray wolf. The king, out of fear, where he stood, fell there, and the gray wolf took to his heels and soon caught up with Ivan Tsarevich.

Ivan Tsarevich got down from his horse and bowed three times to the ground, respectfully thanked the gray wolf. And he says:

Don't say goodbye to me forever, I'll still be useful to you.

Ivan Tsarevich thinks: "Where else will you be useful? All my desires have been fulfilled." He sat on a golden-maned horse, and again they rode with Elena the Beautiful, with the Firebird. He reached his own edges, he decided to take a midday meal. He had some bread with him. Well, they ate, drank spring water and lay down to rest.

As soon as Ivan Tsarevich fell asleep, his brothers run into him. They traveled to other lands, looking for the Firebird, returned empty-handed. They drove in and saw that everything had been obtained from Ivan Tsarevich. Here is what they had to say:

Let's kill our brother, all the booty will be ours.

They decided and killed Ivan Tsarevich. They sat on a golden-maned horse, took the Firebird, put Elena the Beautiful on the horse and frightened her:

Don't say anything at home!

Tsarevich Ivan lies dead, crows are already flying over him. Out of nowhere, a gray wolf came running and grabbed a raven with a crow.

You fly, raven, for living and dead water. If you bring me living and dead water, then I will let your crow go.

The raven, there is nothing to do, flew away, and the wolf is holding his little crow. How long did the raven fly, how short, did it bring living and dead water. The gray wolf sprinkled Ivan Tsarevich's wounds with dead water, the wounds healed; sprinkled it with living water - Ivan Tsarevich came to life.

Oh, I slept soundly!

You slept soundly, - says the gray wolf. If it wasn't for me, I wouldn't have woken up at all. Your brothers killed you and took away all your booty. Get on top of me quickly.

They rode in pursuit and overtook both brothers. Then the gray wolf tore them to pieces and scattered the pieces across the field.

Ivan Tsarevich bowed to the gray wolf and said goodbye to him forever. Ivan Tsarevich returned home on a golden-maned horse, brought the Firebird to his father, and his bride, Elena the Beautiful.

Tsar Berendey was delighted, and began to ask his son. Ivan Tsarevich began to tell how the gray wolf helped him get prey, and how the brothers killed him sleepy, and how the gray wolf tore them to pieces.

Tsar Berendey grieved and was soon consoled. And Ivan Tsarevich married Elena the Beautiful, and they began to live and live and not know grief.
