00:00Cinderella

00:07Once there lived a rich man whose wife was sick.

00:15And when she felt her end drawing near,

00:18she called her only daughter Cinderella to come close to her bed.

00:23Dear child, when I'm gone, be good and pious,

00:28and God will always take care of you,

00:31and I will look down upon you from heaven and will be with you.

00:37And she closed her eyes and died.

00:50The maiden went every day to her mother's grave and cried.

00:54Cinderella's father used to travel a lot for work.

01:01He decided to remarry so that he could get someone to take care of Cinderella.

01:07He got married to a widow who had two young daughters.

01:14Cinderella lived with her wicked stepmother and two unkind stepsisters.

01:19They treated Cinderella very badly.

01:23She grew up being their servant, doing all the house chores.

01:28One day, Cinderella was sweeping the floor.

01:31Her two sisters were sitting on the sofa and greedily eating fruits.

01:36After eating, one of the sisters threw the peels on the floor.

01:46The stepmother came into the drawing room and saw the unclean floor.

01:51Cinderella, clean the floor neatly, you lazy girl.

01:56Can't you do a single thing properly?

01:58Yes, Mother. I will do it now. Sorry.

02:04Cinderella was made to cook and do the dishes.

02:12Can I get some food to eat, Mother?

02:16You can eat the leftovers after we finish.

02:19Don't start this drama again.

02:28Go and clean the dishes first.

02:30Cinderella picked up all the dishes and cleaned them.

02:36She was made to sleep in the attic.

02:40Every night she cried and slept in hunger.

02:42Looking at Cinderella, the little rats and the bird felt bad for her

02:50and became friends with her.

02:57One day, the king decided to have a big party

02:59and called everyone from the town.

03:02The king wanted his son to choose one of the pretty girls to marry.

03:06The king sent an invite to all the young maidens

03:09for a grand ball at his palace.

03:12The people of the kingdom, I have a message for you from the king.

03:18Everyone is invited to the grand ball on Saturday of the coming week.

03:23He will choose a princess for the prince on the occasion.

03:29Everyone was happy and jumped with joy.

03:33Cinderella was also very happy and excited

03:36as she always wanted to see the palace.

03:38Cinderella's sisters started preparing themselves for the ball

03:42with a great hustle and bustle.

03:46Come on, girls.

03:47Start preparing for the ball.

03:49I want the prince to marry either of you.

03:53And you, Cinderella.

03:55Help both of them to prepare.

03:57My girls should look like princesses.

04:00One of them is going to marry the prince soon.

04:02Oh, mother.

04:04The prince will marry me.

04:06Cinderella, fix my hair and help me get dressed.

04:10Now, Cinderella, come here first.

04:13I will marry the prince.

04:15Cinderella was very kind.

04:18She helped both her sisters.

04:19I wish I could go there, too.

04:23Can I come, too?

04:25I really want to see the palace and attend the ball.

04:29No way!

04:32Look at yourself.

04:34You don't even have a dress to wear.

04:36Everyone will just laugh at you and will have to face embarrassment.

04:41How dare you even ask such a question?

04:44The sisters and mother left for the grand ball.

04:47Cinderella was left alone crying.

04:53She remembered that she had had her mother's wedding gown.

04:59It was all torn.

05:02She began sewing it.

05:04Her little friends, the birds and the rats, started helping her, too.

05:08This will take lots of time.

05:11And by that time, the party will be over.

05:13Suddenly, a fairy godmother appeared.

05:20Don't cry, my child.

05:22I will send you to the ball.

05:25Huh?

05:26Who are you?

05:28And how can this be possible?

05:30This dress is all torn.

05:32And I don't have a gown to wear to the ball.

05:35Don't you worry, sweet child.

05:37Don't you worry, sweet child.

05:39Gilly, gilly, boo.

05:43Cinderella's old clothes changed into a beautiful new gown.

05:47Gilly, gilly, boo.

05:48And pointing at her feet, appeared glass shoes.

05:52Her mice friends and bird jumping on a pumpkin.

05:56Gilly, gilly, boo.

05:58She turned the pumpkin into a beautiful carriage.

06:01The mice became horses to drag the carriage, and the bird became her coachman.

06:07But, godmother, my stepsisters and stepmother will be there, too.

06:12They will get angry if they see me there.

06:15Don't worry.

06:16I won't let them recognize you.

06:22Ow!

06:23Thank you, godmother.

06:24You are very kind.

06:28But remember, my child, the magic will only last until midnight.

06:37Remember to reach home by then.

06:40Oh, yes, godmother.

06:42I will take care of that.

06:44She waved goodbye and set off for the ball.

06:53When she entered the ballroom, all the heads turned towards her.

06:58The stepsisters and the stepmother couldn't recognize her.

07:02How beautiful she is!

07:06The handsome prince saw her and fell in love with her at the very first sight.

07:12He approached her.

07:14Hey, beautiful lady.

07:15May I have the pleasure of dancing with you?

07:19Yes, of course.

07:22The prince did not dance with anyone else.

07:26He could not take his eyes off Cinderella.

07:29Cinderella danced all night with the prince that she almost forgot the clock was approaching midnight.

07:35Suddenly, she remembered the godmother's words.

07:45The clock caught her eye.

07:48Oh, I must go home now.

07:50Oh, but it's just...

07:53As she was running, one of her glass shoes slipped off her foot.

07:59And she had no time to get it back as she saw the prince was running behind her.

08:04She quickly sat in the carriage and went away.

08:07The prince saw her shoe and quickly picked it up.

08:12Why did she run away?

08:14It was twelve.

08:15On the way, her carriage disappeared and turned into a pumpkin again.

08:20She took a shortcut and ran and finally managed to reach home.

08:24I will find her, even if I have to find her in the whole country.

08:31I want to meet that girl any way I can.

08:36The prince was so eager to see her again that he went along with his men to search for her.

08:42They went door to door.

08:44Every girl in every house was made to try the shoe on, but the shoe did not fit anyone.

08:51They finally reached Cinderella's house.

08:55Welcome, my lord.

08:57My lady, is there any girl in your house who came for the ball?

09:02My two daughters attended the ball last night.

09:05Get your daughters.

09:06They need to try this shoe.

09:08We are searching for a girl who was wearing this shoe.

09:12Oh, one of my daughters might have worn this shoe.

09:16I will call them.

09:17The sisters were made to try the shoe.

09:20They tried to squeeze their leg, but the shoe didn't fit any.

09:23Is there anyone else at home?

09:34Oh, no, no, no, no.

09:35I only have two daughters.

09:37Stepmother had locked Cinderella in the attic so that she couldn't try on the shoe.

09:44We need to inspect the whole house.

09:47Soon, one man saw the way towards the attic and the door was locked.

09:51Is there someone in here?

09:53Stepmother followed him.

09:56No, no, no, no, no, no.

09:58There's no one here.

09:59You don't need to waste your time here, my lord.

10:01He broke the lock and went inside.

10:05To his surprise, he saw a girl sitting near the window.

10:09I found a girl here.

10:12The prince and the men gathered near her, and she was made to try on the shoe.

10:17The shoe fit Cinderella's foot perfectly.

10:21The stepmother was shocked.

10:23No, no, no, no, no.

10:25I finally found you.

10:28What is your name?

10:30Cinderella.

10:31He instantly went down on one knee and proposed to her.

10:36Cinderella, will you marry me?

10:40Yes, yes.

10:41The prince took her hand in his hand and kissed it.

10:47He then rode back to the palace along with Cinderella.

10:52The king and queen were very happy to meet Cinderella.

10:56They invited Cinderella's father to decide the wedding.

11:01Cinderella and the prince got married, and they lived happily ever after.
