Nyai Lara Kidul
Mother, whats wrong with me? cried Dewi Kadita. She clearly
remembred her father, King Siliwangi of Pajajaran Kingdom, praised
her just a couple hours before she went to bed, you have your
mothers beauty, my lovely daughter. That very moment, what she saw
in the mirror was the most horrible creature. Her skin became full
with disgusting brown scales, among which smelly yellowish
secretion slowly emerged. Her eyes were protruding and surrounded
with blackened skin. Her lips were also blackened and wrinkled.
Most of her long hair had disappeared. She could hardly recognize
herself.
Mother! she screamed. Yes, sweetheart, her mother, who was still
lying on her bed, turned around and faced her. Both of them
screamed at the top of their voice. They looked just the same. They
had been the most beautiful mother and daughter at Pajajaran, but
they suddenly turned hideous. Mother, what has happened to us?
asked Dewi Kadita. Both were crying. I dont know, sweetheart, the
mother said, trying to soothe her daughter, but deep inside she
knew who did that to them. Being the kings most beautiful wife, she
had made the other wives jealous. They must have conspired to use
some kind of black magic to deform her body and that of her
daughters. The news spread as quickly as lightning. King Siliwangi
was told that they were bad luck for the kingdom. Both the cursed
women had to be exiled from the kingdom; otherwise, the kingdom
would suffer great misfortune. Intimidated by the words, the king
forced them to leave the kingdom that night. They left the palace
with no soldiers guarding, no ladies-in-waiting escorting, and no
golden chariot waiting. Off they walked to the neighboring kingdom,
Mataram. Not knowing how to get there, they reached the southern
coast of Java finally decided that they would walk along the coast
to the east.
On their seventh day walking, Dewis mother said, I cant stand it
anymore Mother, please be strong from me, begged Dewi. Im sure
there will be someone who can help us. Leave me alone here, the
mother said, Go to Mataram. Try to meet King Panembahan Senapati
and ask for his mercy. I cant leave you, Mother, Dewi started
crying. Her mother sat on her knees. Blood flowed from her nose.
Then she fell; her breath was gone. Dewi screamed, Mother! Please
dont go! Please dont.
Out of the blue a big wave pulled her mothers body into the
ocean. Dewi ran after the body, but the southern ocean was too
powerful for the girl, she ended up sitting above a rock about a
kilometer from the shore. She was so exhausted that she fell asleep
on it. While sleeping, she was sure that she heard her mother say,
Jump into the water, sweetheart. Its the only way to help you out
of the curse. When she woke up, with no second thought, she jumped
into the sea. The violent ocean swallowed her. She was tossed about
helplessly, up, down, and twisted. This is it, she thought. This is
the end. Only miracles could explain how amazed she was when she
openend her eyes. She was in a wonderful golden palace on the bed
of the ocean. She looked at herself in the mirror; she couldnt
believe what she saw. She had become even more beautiful and
stunning. She was dressed in green, which made a remarkable
contrast to her bright skin. Her hair was let loose, ornamented
with pearls and jasmine petals. She turned around and saw an
unbelievable sight: all the sea creatures were bowing to show their
respect, Long live the Queen of the South Sea, they said. Only then
did she realize she was not a common human being anymore.
The spirits and demons of the ocean had crowned her to be their
queen and named her Nyai Lara Kidul, which in Javanese means the
beautiful majesty from the south. King Panembahan Senapati of
Mataram Kingdom is having a meditation at the beach, she said to
her attendants. I will see him. Escort me there. The ocean was
rough and displaying huge waves as Nyai Lara Kidul sat in her most
beautiful gold chariot, guarded by a number of armored demon troops
heading to Parangtritis Beach. She spotted the handsome king
sitting on a rock. As she walked toward him, the king opened his
eyes. They fell in love at once, and the king asked her to be his
wife.
My mighty king, she said, Im honored to be your wife, but
forgive me that I cant I will be loyal not only to you but also to
your descendants, the kings of Mataram. I will protect the kings
and their people. But now I will even help you conquer the
Pajajaran Kingdom. The king smiled and nodded his head. May I add
one thing, Your Majesty? she added. I will be the only one who is
allowed to wear something green to honor my king. Perhaps harm
should be done to those who wear my sacred color at the southern
coast. To this day, people who visit the southern Coast of Java
respect and fear Nyai Lara Kidul by not wearing green near the
beach.
Nyai Lara Kidul
"Ibu, ada apa dengan saya?" Dewi Kardita menangis. Dia jelas
teringat ayahnya, Raja Siliwangi Kerajaan Pajajaran, beberapa jam
sebelum ia pergi tidur ayahnya memuji, "Kamu memiliki kecantikan
seperti ibumu, pada saat itu saya melihat di cermin makhluk yang
mengerikan. Kulitnya menjadi penuh dengan sisik coklat menjijikkan,
di antaranya sekresi kekuningan bau perlahan-lahan muncul, matanya
menonjol dan dikelilingi dengan kulit menghitam. bibirnya juga
menghitam dan berkerut. sebagian besar rambutnya yang panjang telah
menghilang. dia hampir tidak bisa mengenali dirinya sendiri.
"Ibu!"Dia menjerit "Ya, Sayang," berbalik ibunya, yang masih
berbaring di tempat tidurnya , mengitari dan berhadapan dengan nya.
Keduanya berteriak dengan keras. Mereka tampak sama. mereka berdua
adalah ibu dan anak yang paling cantik di Pajajaran, tetapi mereka
tiba-tiba berubah mengerikan. "Ibu, apa yang terjadi pada kita?
Tanya Dewi Kardita. Keduanya menangis. "Aku tidak tahu, Sayang,"
kata sang ibu, berusaha menenangkan putrinya, namun di dalam hati
ia tahu siapa yang melakukan ini kepada mereka. Menjadi istri raja
yang paling cantik, telah membuat istri-istri lainnya cemburu.
Mereka telah bersekongkol untuk menggunakan beberapa jenis sihir
hitam untuk merusak tubuhnya dan putrinya. Berita menyebar secepat
kilat. Raja Siliwangi diberitahu bahwa mereka adalah nasib buruk
bagi kerajaan. Kedua wanita terkutuk harus diasingkan dari
kerajaan, jika tidak, kerajaan akan menderita kemalangan besar.
Terintimidasi oleh kata-kata itu, raja memaksa mereka untuk
meninggalkan kerajaan malam itu. mereka meninggalkan istana dengan
tentara yang menjaga, tidak ada wanita yang menjadi pengawal, dan
tidak ada kereta emas menunggu.
Mereka berjalan ke kerajaan tetangga, mataram. tidak tahu
bagaimana untuk sampai ke sana, mereka mencapai pantai selatan Jawa
dan akhirnya mereka memutuskan akan berjalan di sepanjang pantai ke
timur. Pada hari berjalan ketujuh mereka, Ibu Dewi mengatakan,
"saya tidak bisa tahan lagi." Ibu, kamu harus kuat demi saya,"
Pinta Dewi. "Saya yakin akan ada seseorang yang bisa membantu kita.
"Tinggalkan aku sendirian di sini," kata sang ibu, "pergi ke
Mataram. Cobalah untuk bertemu dengan Raja Panembahan Senapati dan
meminta rahmat-Nya. "Aku tidak bisa meninggalkanmu, Ibu," Dewi
mulai menangis. Ibunya duduk di lututnya. darah mengalir dari
hidungnya. Lalu ia terjatuh, napasnya hilang. Dewi berteriak, "Ibu!
Tolong jangan pergi! Tolong jangan. Tiba-tiba gelombang besar
menarik tubuh ibunya ke laut. Dewi berlari mengejar tubuh ibunya,
tetapi laut selatan itu terlalu kuat untuk gadis itu, ia akhirnya
duduk di atas sebuah batu sekitar satu kilometer dari pantai. Dia
begitu lelah sampai ia jatuh tertidur di atasnya.
saat tidur, dia yakin bahwa dia mendengar ibunya berkata,
"melompat ke air itu saying. Itu satu-satunya cara untuk membantu
kamu keluar dari kutukan tersebut" ketika ia bangun, tanpa berpikir
dua kali, ia melompat ke laut. Dengan keras samudra menelan
dirinya. dia terombang-ambing tak berdaya, ke atas, bawah, dan
memutar. "Ini dia," pikirnya. "Ini adalah akhir. Mukjizat hanya
bisa menjelaskan bagaimana dia kagum ketika dia membuka matanya.
Dia berada di sebuah istana emas yang indah di tempat tidur laut.
Dia memandang dirinya di cermin, ia tidak bisa percaya apa yang
dilihatnya. Dia menjadi lebih indah dan menakjubkan.
Dia berpakaian hijau, yang membuat kontras yang luar biasa untuk
kulit cerah nya. Rambutnya biarkan longgar, dihiasi dengan mutiara
dan kuntum melati. Dia berbalik dan melihat pemandangan yang luar
biasa: semua makhluk laut yang membungkuk untuk menunjukkan rasa
hormat mereka, "Hidup Ratu Laut Selatan," kata mereka. Baru saat
itulah ia menyadari bahwa ia bukan manusia biasa lagi. Roh-roh dan
setan laut telah dinobatkan dia menjadi ratu mereka dan
menamakannya Nyai Lara Kidul, yang dalam cara Jawa 'keagungan yang
indah dari selatan. "
"Raja Panembahan Senapati dari Kerajaan Mataram yang memiliki
meditasi di pantai," katanya kepada pembantu nya. "Aku akan
melihatnya. Temani aku kesana. Laut itu kasar dan menampilkan
gelombang besar seperti Nyai Lara Kidul duduk di kereta emas paling
indah, dijaga oleh sejumlah tentara setan lapis baja menuju ke
Pantai Parangtritis. Dia melihat raja tampan duduk di atas batu.
Saat ia berjalan mendekatinya, raja membuka matanya. Mereka jatuh
cinta, dan raja memintanya untuk menjadi istrinya.
"Raja perkasa saya," katanya, "Saya merasa terhormat untuk
menjadi istrimu, tapi maafkan saya bahwa saya tidak bisa, saya akan
setia tidak hanya untuk Anda tetapi juga untuk keturunanmu,
raja-raja Mataram. Saya akan melindungi raja dan rakyatnya. Tapi
sekarang aku akan membantu Anda menaklukkan Kerajaan Pajajaran.
Raja tersenyum dan menganggukkan kepala. "Boleh saya menambahkan
satu hal, Yang Mulia?" Ia menambahkan. "Aku akan menjadi seseorang
yang mengizinkan sesuatu yang hijau untuk menghormati raja
saya.
Mungkin kerugian harus dilakukan untuk mereka yang mengenakan
warna suci saya di pantai selatan. Sampai hari ini, orang-orang
yang mengunjungi pantai selatan Jawa hormat dan takut kepada Nyai
Lara Kidul dengan tidak mengenakan hijau dekat pantai.
