The Story of Sindbad The Sailor
The story tells us that sindbad was a famous sailor who live in Baghdad. He was
honest,generous and brave. He had many adventures on each of his voyages. He
never lost heart and hope in dangerous situations. He overcame great dangers and
returned home safely from each of his voyages. Here is the story of his first voyage,
Sindbad set sail with a company of merchants on a big ship. From time to time, they
stopped at various ports. There they sold their merchandise and bought new thing to
trade.
One day when their ship was sailing smoothly across the sea, they spotted a small
island at a distance. They had not seen land for many days fealth both surprised and
happy to see the island. The captain of the ship allowed them to go there for a picnic,
everyone was excited.
On the island, they strolled around , sang and danced. Some people began to wash
clothes , some lit fries to cook meals.
“ oh my god... finally i can take a rest for a while, how comfortable is this” said one of
sindbad friend.
“ hey let’s singing with me, we should enjoy this time.” Said Sindbad
But Soon, a breeze sprang up. The fires began to blaze. Suddenly the land began to
shake and move. With a shock the picnic party realized that the island was not an island
at all. They were on the back of a huge sea monster, and it had started moving.
“ What the hell is this....AAAAA IT’S A BACK OF HUGE MONSTERRRR”
“ HEY.... HURRY UP GO TO THE SHIP NOWWWW, LEFT ALL THE PAN, DON’T
BRING IT, RUN BOYYYY”
The captain ordered his men to set sail immediately in order to move away from the
monster. The sea - monster plunged deep into the sea. Many people managed to climb
aboard the ship, Sindbad alone did not drown into the sea. But he couldn't reach the
ship. He saw it sailing, far away. He was now at the mercy of the waves, being tossed
here and there. He clung to a piece of wood and somehow managed to keep afloat. He
spent the night alone at sea.
When the next day dawned, Sindbad was happy to see that he had floated near an
island - a real, big island. He could see hills and woods and trees at a distance. Though
he was extremely tired, he swam to the shore with all the strength that he could muster.
Exhausted and hungry, so he lay on the sand for some time. After that he began to
walk inland towards the shady fruit trees . luckily , this was the time when the king of
that island sent his horses to the seashore with the grooms.
“ is that someone out here?” scream sindbad

“oh hey... can you help me, i’m hungry” ask sindbad
“ what a poor man, so this is a food and some water for you “ said the grooms “ after
you eat that, let”s come with me “
Then they took him to the king. The king was impressed by the way Sindbad told him
about what had happened.
“ your story so imprest me,so “i’m offering you to work with me at the port, would you ?”
said the king
“ offcourse i would your majesty “ said sindbad
Sindbad stayed there for a few days, learning a lot from the king and the people on the
island and in turn telling them about the other cities and ports that he had visited. The
one day, a ship arrived at the island with a lot of merchandise. Sindbad was at the quay
when the cargo from that ship was being unloaded. He was surprised to see that his
own name was marked on some of the boxes. Then he went to see the captain of the
ship.
“ captain are you remember me, i’m sindbad from baghdad “
“ wait... sindbad , i think i know that name... oh are you sindbad? This is really you
sindbad? Oh i couldn’t belive this “ said the captain
He was overjoyed to see Sindbad alive. He gave him back all his merchandise. From
the goods that he thus got back, Sindbad presented the most valuable items to the king.
“ Please accept this, Your Majesty, you have been very kind and very generous to me.”
The king was pleased. He too gave Sindbad many valuable gifts when Sindbad left the
island with the merchant ship.
“ good bye everyone.... i would come to here again... byee”
