The Twelve Dancing Princesses Story in English:-Once upon a time, in a kingdom far away, there was a king who had twelve beautiful daughters.
As the girls grew up, the king began to suffer from depression.
He noticed that his daughters would buy new shoes every day, but the shoes would be worn out by the end of the day.
The king bought expensive imported shoes for them, but they also got worn out within a day. The king was perplexed and wanted to know the secret behind it.
He announced a competition for the people of the country to solve this mystery for a prize. The willing participants stayed at the palace for one day, but they couldn’t find the secret.
One day, a hunter came to know about this competition. On his way to the palace, he met an old woman who asked him for food. The hunter gave her food, and in exchange, she gave him a magic cloth that would make him invisible. She also gave him a hint not to eat or drink anything from the twelve princesses.
The hunter participated in the competition, and the king said that he would give his entire palace and one of his daughters’ hands in marriage if he solved the mystery.
The hunter was taken to a room near the princesses’ room, and one of the girls offered him a drink.
The hunter remembered the old woman’s hint and refused to drink it. Later, he saw all the princesses leaving via a secret door.
He wore the magic cloth and followed them. The princesses went to the forest area, where they met princes from other countries and danced with them.
The hunter realized that their shoes were getting worn out because of all the forest walking. He found out the truth and said to the king, “Your daughters are all grown up now.”
The king was very happy to hear that, and he arranged marriages for all his daughters with the princes from other countries.
The hunter then said, “I want to marry the lonely princess who was not joining them.” The king agreed, and they got married.
The hunter became a prince, and he and his wife lived happily ever after.
