B .Discussion
-INTRODUCTION OF THE
STORY THE ADARNA BIRD
Ibong Adarna is a mythical
story, formed in narrative song
and poetry called corrido and
considered a big part of the
Philippine literature, usually
-Maam its a bird!
-Maam the feathers of the bird
are color full!
studied as part of the secondary
curriculum in the country. The
author of this fantastic story still
remains unknown and uncertain.
Some said that the author was
Spanish because it has been
written when the Spaniards ruled
the Philippines. During those
times, Ibong Adarna was known
as Corrido at Buhay na
Pinagdaanan nang Tatlong
Principeng Magcacapatid na
Anac nang Haring Fernando at
nang Reina Valeriana sa
Cahariang Berbania. Other
critiques said that it has been
written by Jose dela Cruz, a great
poet here also known asHuseng
Sisiw. This amazing folklore is
about love, sacrifice and
fantasy. Ibong Adarna literally
means Adarna Bird. The story
centers about catching the
mythical bird that possesses
magical powers. The Adarna bird
is so beautiful and could change
in a lot of stunning forms. It is
very much hard to catch. It knows
a total of seven songs which
could either enchant anyone to
sleep, turn into stone or heal a
deadly sickness. Which is why
the almost dying King Fernando
of Berbania tasked his three sons
to catch the magical bird? Thats
where the story begins
THE CHARACTERS OF THE
ADARNA BIRD
-King Fernando
-Queen Valeriana
-Don Pedro
-Don Diego
-Don Juan
-Donya Juana
-Donya Leonora
-Donya Maria Blanca
-King Salermo
The summary of the adarna
bird
-Once upon a time, there
was a kingdom named, Berbania.
It was ruled by King Fernando
and Queen Valeriana who had
three sons Don Pedro (first
born), Don Diego (second) and
Don Juan (the youngest).One
night, King Fernando had a bad
dream. He saw that his youngest
Prince and his favorite, Don Juan
was thrown away in a creepy
deep well. The King started to get
weak for some unknown reasons.
It seemed that nothing could
bring back his healthy condition.
His medical advisors told him that
the only cure to his unexplained
sickness is a lullaby sung by the
Adarna bird.So King Fernando
tasked his three sons to hunt the
magical bird. Don Pedro went
first but he wasnt successful. He
may have reached Mount Tabor
and the tree of Piedras Platas
where the Adarna bird nested but
the prince fell asleep after
hearing the birds song. Worse
he turned into a stone when the
lovely bird pooped on him. The
second prince, Don Diego went
to hunt next. Unfortunately, he
had the same bitter chance like
his older brother. The kingdom
was counting on Don Juan, so he
went next.The youngest prince
has climbed through Mount
Tabor. He met a very old sick
man who gave him tips about the
magical tree of Piedras Platas
and catching the Adarna bird.
Don Juan successfully caught the
bird and helped his two brothers
to be human again. Because of
envy and greed of power, the two
joined forces to beat Don Juan to
death and throw him in a deep
well. The two then returned home
with the Adarna. However, the
kings illness went worse
because the bird never sang a
single song.Luckily, Don Juans
strength returned. He has been
healed by the poor old man he
helped in the mountain. He came
back to the Kingdom of Berbania.
King Fernando has known the
truth when the bird started
singing after seeing Don Juan.
The King went well and stronger
than ever. He wanted to punish
his two sons but Don Juan asked
his father to just forgive them.
The King granted his request and
asked the three princes to guard
the Adarna bird. Because of Don
Pedro, the bird flew away and
escaped. Don Juan went away
from the kingdom so the king
wont punish his brother.King
Fernando asked the two princes
to look for Don Juan. They found
him in the kingdom of Armenia.
They decided to live there. One
day they found an interesting
well. Only Don Juan went down
inside successfuly. He found two
lovely princesses, Donya Juana
and Donya Leonora captive by a
giant serpent. Because of his
skills in fighting, the mighty prince
has killed the serpent and saved
the two princesses. Don Pedro
envied the young prince. He cut
the rope when the prince went
down inside the well to get the
ring Donya Leonora has
forgotten. Anyway, it was easy for
Don Diego to make Donya Juana
to fall in love with him. So when
they came back to Berbania, they
married. On the other hand, Don
Pedro did everything to pursue
Donya Leonora but him failed.An
enchanted fox helped Don Juan
and he was quickly healed. The
Adarna bird appeared suddenly
and told him about the princess
of Reyno delos Cristales, his love
destiny. He immediately
searched for the princess and
found out about the cruel King
Salermo. In spite of the obstacles
the cruel king has given him, he
faced them all and succeeded
with the help of Maria Blanca,
daughter of King Salermo.
Because of the selfish king, the
two tried to escape. Maria Blanca
was cursed to be crawling like a
snail and be forgotten by the
prince Don Juan.Don Juan has
returned to Berbania where he
was welcomed by his mother,
Queen Valeriana and Princess
Leonora. He has forgotten about
Maria Blanca because of
Princess Leonora. Don Juan and
Princess Leonora were
scheduled to wed. At the day of
the wedding, Maria Blanca visited
wearing the emperatris. She tried
to bring back all the memories
and remind Don Juan about their
love. Finally, Don Juan and
Princess Maria Blanca got
married while Princess Leonora
married Don Pedro. In the end,
Don Pedro became the new king
of Berbania while Don Juan
became the king of Reyno delos
Cristales.
