Heroes Fairy Tales

Our ancient heroes are celebrated in epic poems, and they continue to flutter like a banner of bravery, courage, pride, perseverance, justice, and integrity in the consciousness of our people. In our childhood, the book "Songs of Heroes" was one that every Kazakh would read while lounging at home, and the whole village would gather to read it together. Oh, what fiery-hearted heroes there were in the distant, forgotten times of the Kazakhs! Armed with their five weapons. Firmly holding their bows, Dismissing the enemy one by one. Reaching for the quiver. Taking aim at the heart. This is your dying place, they say, And they draw back the bowstring. They do not burn when thrown into fire, nor do they sink when thrown into water.
