Ilya Muromets and Nightingale the Robber
A bylina is a traditional heroic poem of Kievan Rus. The word “bylina” comes from the Russian word “byl” and means something that really happened. In ancient times bylinas were sung to the gusli by folksingers. About one hundred bylinas were written down by the collectors of Russian folklore in the 19th century. The most famous bylinas are about Russian bogatyrs – Ilya Muromets, Alyosha Popovich, Dobrynya Nikitich, Vasily Buslaev, Sadko, Svatogor.
Ilya Muromets, the son of a peasant, was born in the village of Karacharovo, near Murom. He was very sick in his young years, so he couldn’t walk. At the age of 33 a wonder happened and Ilya felt very strong and brave. He left for Kiev to defend Rus from evil.
His way to Kiev passed through the forests of Bryansk. A monster lived there, half a man half a bird, called Nightingale the Robber. The monster could fly and lived in a big nest situated on twelve trees. He had a family lake all people, and he could kill strangers with his powerful whistle. The trees lost their leaves and the people fell dead when the monster whistled.
Nightingale the Robber tried hard to kill Ilya Muromets but nothing happened to the bogatyr. Ilya Muromets came to the monster and shot an arrow at his right eye. When the monster fell down from the tree, Ilya Muromets put him into his sack and took to the glorious city of Kiev.
When Ilya Muromets arrived in Kiev, he rode to the prince’s palace and entered the house made of white stone. The Prince asked him, “Tell me, good boy, how men call you, and what city you are from.” Ilya Muromets answered , “My lord, men call me Little Ilya, but by my father’s name I am Ivanov, from the city of Murom, the village Karacharovo”. “And by which road did you ride from Murom?” “By that of Chernigof. Under the walls of Chernigof I fought against the enemies and defended the city. Then on my way here I fought against another enemy, Nightingale the Robber, and have brought him here to show you.” The Prince didn’t believe him. “What a lie you are telling me! ” When the heroes Alyosha Popovich and Dobrynya Nikitich heard his words, they went to the forest and saw that the road was free.
The Prince wanted to listen to the whistle of Nightingale the Robber. Ilya Muromets took the monster out of his sack and he whistled. Many houses in Kiev were destroyed and many people fell dead. After this Ilya Muromets took Nightingale the Robber to an open field and cut off his head.
1) Why didn’t Ilya Muromets fight when he was young?
2) Why were people afraid of Nightingale the Robber?
3) Did Ilya Muromets catch the monster?
4) Why were many houses destroyed and people killed in Kiev?
5) What happened to the monster?
