A traditional folktale telling the story of a very poor couple and their wonderful son.
In the outskirt of a city, live a very poor man and his wife. One day, the wife gives birth to a son. As he grows the son spends more and more time in the forest and slowly becomes the owner of herds of cattle. This makes him rich and he ends up marrying the tsar’s daughter.
Recording: The story was recorded in Katravozh in 1990 by Irina Nikolaeva.

I know one story. At the edge of the village, at the edge of the town poor people lived. They lived and lived. They did not catch game, they did not catch fish. They lived, the poor people lived. They lived, of course, eating a little something. It seems they went to the tsar. One day a baby was on its way. A baby was on its way, the wife said: “I’m going to have a baby.” The husband said: “My God! There’s going to be a child, what shall I feed it with?” Then the wife said: “Why are you crying, are you afraid? He is our flesh and blood, he’ll have something to eat.” They lived on. As they lived, they had nothing, they had no place to sleep, they had nothing, they just lived. What they earned, what the tsar gave them, they ate.

Their child got big, started to run. He started to run, his mother said: “Our child always wants to go to the forest. He’s never at home. The child should go to town and play with little boys.” Then the father said: “Let him be. I didn’t know my own life. I didn’t see anything, maybe our child will see something” The wife thought: “My husband always tells the truth. We’ll keep on living the same way.” The little child grew like in a tale, like in a song. He grew and kept on going to the forest. He went the next day, went forward through the trees, the next day he went and again went forward through the trees. He started to go far. He found the tracks of wild animals. There were wild reindeer.

He caressed the animals, caressed them all. He caressed them for a short or long time, they all became completely used to him. Just as if they were a tame herd. The animals were at home around him. They lived like that. The animals bore young. The animals gave birth to little ones and they grew. This man of tales, the man of songs grew big. He grew big, he already looks like his father. While he roamed in this way, the herd grew very large.

Where did you get it from?” He said? “Mother, father, I will go to the forest and will bring home a calf.” The youth went, snatched a calf and brought it home. He showed it to his father and mother and said: “Father, mother skin it and we’ll eat it.” Then his father and mother said: “Why did you kill it? Had you not killed it, we would have taken it to the tsar. Perhaps he would have given us a good place to live.” Then he said: “Mama, don’t be worried, I have a herd in the forest.” They ate that animal. The youth grew strong, he was already big.

You are a young man. Where I send you, you will go.” “Send me where you want,” he said, “I have already gone round our water and our land. I know everything which is in the forest.” The tsar said: “We need a man like this. While your father lived, he lived, but ha no idea what was in the forest. You seem to know “everything.” The young man said: “Then tell me what work you will give me.” He said: “I’ll give you work. My whole life I have been here and lived here and while living here I had four women and five men, but my fences are all broken. They are all broken.” “Right,” he said, “I’ll fix your fences. Tomorrow I will bring you the herd, and you give me lodging.”
