The Magic Candle

    Once, there was a lost young wanderer who went to an old hut where an old woman lived. The old woman was crying aloud because a devil, who lived not far from her hut, had stolen her magic candle, which could grant any wishes. Then the young wanderer decided to help her to take her candle back from the devil. Unfortunately, the young wanderer was an unkind man. After he got the magic candle, he didn't return it to her. He even made a wish to go far away from there.

   A genie appeared and took him to a beautiful palace. Because he wanted some money, he made his second wish for some jewellery and then sold it. Suddenly, a beautiful princess came to buy some jewellery, but there was nothing left. The wanderer then fell in love with her and asked her to marry him . The kind princess accepted his proposal and they got married the next day.

   In his happiness, the wanderer told the princess about his adventure and the magic candle. Hearing that, the princess got very angry. That night she lit the candle and wished that the wanderer would disappear. In the morning, the wanderer awoke and found himself back in his ugly house in the village.
