Suatu hari, raja memanggil pelukis ke istana.Ya!Ia ingin dilukis.Tak perlu waktu lama,pelukis itu berhasil melukis raja dengan sempurna.
Raja pun menjadi heran
One day, the king called a painter to the palace. Yes! He wanted to be painted. It didn't take long, the painter managed to paint the king perfectly.
The king was surprised.
"Lukisanmu sangat sempurna.Apakah kamu tidak pernah menemui kesulitan dalam menulis?"tanya raja.
"Your painting is perfect. Have you never had difficulty in writing?" Asked the king.
"Tentu hamba mengalami kesulitan dalam melukis,tuan,"jawab pelukis itu.
"Kau begitu mahir melukis.Mana mungkin kau mengalami kesulitan,"ucap raja,tak percaya.
"Of course I have difficulty in painting, sir," answered the painter.
"You are so good at painting. Where might you have difficulty," said the king, disbelief
Pelukis itu pun menjelaskan baha melukis itu sangat sulit,membutuhkan ketelitian dan kesabaran.Sebelum ia mahir,ia juga sering mengalami kegagalan.
The painter also explained that painting was very difficult, requiring accuracy and patience. Before he was proficient, he also often failed.
Raja pun hanya mengangguk-anggukan kepalanya mendengar jawaban si pelukis.
"Lalu,apa yang paling sulit untuk kau lukis?"Raja kembali bertanya.
Mendengar pertanyaan raja,pelukis utu berfikir sejenak.
The king only nodded his head at the answer to the painter.
"Then what is the most difficult thing for you to paint?" The king asked again.
Hearing the king's question, the painter should think for a moment.
"Tuan raja,menurut hmba,yang sangat sulit untuk dilukis adalah binatang,"jawab pelukis.
"Lord, according to hmba, animals that are very difficult to paint are," answered the painter.
Raja menjadi heran.Apa sulitnya melukis binatang?Setiap hari kita melihat binatang,apa yang membuat sulit?
The king was surprised. What is the difficulty of painting animals? Every day we see animals, what makes it difficult?
"Menurutmu,apa yang paling mudah dilukis?"tanya raja lagi.
"Hamba paling mudah melukis hantu,"jawab pelukis.
"What do you think is the easiest to paint?" Asked the king again.
"I most easily paint ghosts," the painter answered.
mengapa hantu?Bukankah hantu tak bisa dilihat,dan akan lebih sulit melukis yang tidak terlihat?"tanya raja dengan wajah ingin tahu.
why ghosts? Aren't ghosts invisible, and it will be harder to paint the invisible? "asked the king with a curious face.
Pelukis pun menjelaskan.Tak ada manusia yang bisa melihat hantuDengan demikian,ia bisa melukis hnatu dengan sesuka hati,tanpa ketahuan kesalahannya.Sedangkan semua orang tahu seperti apa binatang.
The painter also explained. There is no human who can see ghosts. Thus, he can paint hnatu as he pleases, without being caught in his mistakes. While everyone knows what animals are like.
Akan sangat terlihat jelas ,bila ia melakukan kesalahan dalam melukis binatang.
Raja pun mengangguk paham dengan penjelasan pelukis itu.Raja merasa sangat senang karena dilukis oleh pelukis yang sangat cerdas itu Raja pun memberi hadiah kepada pelukis,sebagai ucapan terimakasih.
It would be very obvious, if he made a mistake in painting animals.
The king nodded in understanding with the painter's explanation. King was very happy because it was painted by a very smart painter. The king also gave a gift to the painter, as a thank you
Pelukis pulang dengan hati yang bahagia.Ia tak menyangkajika kecerdasan yang dimilikinya dapat mendatangkan berkah untuknya.
The painter returns home with a happy heart. He does not deny that his intelligence can bring him blessings.
