00:00The Legend of the Pineapple
00:05A long time ago, in a quiet little village, there lived a hard-working mother and her only daughter, Pina.
00:13Their hut was small and simple.
00:16But the mother did everything she could to keep it clean and warm.
00:21Every day, the mother worked from sunrise to sunset.
00:25She swept the yard, fetched water, cooked food, and mended clothes.
00:38But sadly, her daughter Pina never lifted a finger to help.
00:42Pina was beautiful, but she was also very lazy.
00:46Instead of helping her mother, she would spend her days playing in the backyard,
00:50making excuses whenever she was asked to do chores.
00:54Pina, please sweep the floor, her mother would say.
00:58But Nanai, I can't find the broom, Pina would reply, even if the broom was right in front of her.
01:05Pina, fetch me some water from the jar.
01:08But Nanai, I can't find the dipper, she would complain, though it was hanging near the door.
01:18Every time her mother asked, Pina would answer the same, I can't find it.
01:24And so, the poor mother always ended up doing all the work herself.
01:30One day, after many years of working so hard, Pina's mother became very ill.
01:37She lay weak on her mat, too tired to even stand.
01:41Pina, she called softly.
01:44Please cook me some porridge.
01:47I am too weak to get up.
01:49But Pina pouted and said,
01:52Nanai, I don't know how, that's too hard.
01:58It is not hard, Anak.
02:00Just put rice and water in a pot.
02:04When it boils, stir it with a ladle.
02:09Everything you need is in the kitchen.
02:12Reluctantly, Pina stomped to the kitchen.
02:15Her mother could hear her banging the pots in drawers.
02:20After a while, the kitchen grew quiet.
02:25Then she heard the back door pre-cooking.
02:28Pina, she called.
02:31Yes, Nanai?
02:33Did you cook the porridge?
02:35No, said Pina stubbornly.
02:38And why not?
02:40I couldn't find the ladle.
02:42The ladle, of course, was right there beside the pot.
02:47Hearing this, her mother's patience finally broke.
02:51In her anger and weakness, she cried out,
02:56Oh, Pina, you are so lazy.
02:59You never help me.
03:01You always say you can't find anything.
03:03I wish you would grow a thousand eyes.
03:06So you will always find what you're looking for.
03:11Her words filled the air like thunder.
03:15Then everything fell silent.
03:20The mother thought Pina was sulking outside, trying to avoid more chores.
03:25She sighed heavily and, despite her sickness, forced herself to cook the porridge alone.
03:32Days passed.
03:34Pina never came back.
03:37The mother asked the neighbors, but no one had seen her.
03:40Weeks turned into months, and still there was no sign of the girl.
03:47One morning, while sweeping the yard, the mother noticed something strange.
03:54On the very spot where Pina used to play, a plant had grown.
04:00Its leaves were long and spiky, stretching out in all directions.
04:05At the center of the plant grew a golden fruit.
04:09When the mother looked closely, she gasped.
04:13The fruit's skin was covered in little eyes, as though it was always watching.
04:19My anak, my angry words turned you into this plant.
04:26From then on, the mother cared for the plant as if it were her daughter.
04:32The fruit grew sweet and bright under her care.
04:36When she shared it with her neighbors, they were amazed by its taste.
04:43It began to call the fruit Pina, after the girl who had disappeared.
04:49Over time, the word changed to Pina, which is what we now call the pineapple.
04:55What is the lesson of the pineapple?
04:58The villagers never forgot the story of Pina.
05:01They taught their children.
05:03Always listen to your parents.
05:05Be helpful, not lazy.
05:07And remember, words spoken in anger can last forever.
05:11And so, the pineapple became a symbol of love, patience, and the importance of helping one another.
05:18And that is the legend of the pineapple.
05:20The story of a child who would not help, and a mother's wish that changed her forever.
05:26The people and the other who would not help, and a mother's wish that she had nowhere.
05:29The Pina.
05:29The final story is about the wrong time.
05:29She's a natural.
05:29She has a natural.
05:29She's a natural.
05:29She's a natural.
05:30She's a natural.
