Tanggang,
born an ordinary man
Living in
the hidden corner of a village
He worked
hard through his waking hours
To look
after his beloved mother. Then came along one big ship Tanggang slaved himself away on
it He was then duly rewardedWith a marriage to a beautiful
princess
It’s been
awhile since he’s been home
His ship
sailed by the familiar harbour
The sight of
Tanggang on the luxurious ship
Became news
that reached his mother Upon hearing the return of her
son The mother brought along roasted
bananas In her heart she won’t want
another separationBecause the longing in her heart
was beyond comprehensible.
But he
denied any association with her
Tanggang
didn’t even want to be approached
His mother
was shouted at and chased away
The sorrow
in her heart was beyond description
Seeing the way her son reacted,The mother’s
heart was totally crushedShe raised her hand to God
almightyThe son she loved was turned to
stone.

Tanggang – The Unfilial Son presents deep
rooted values and themes from the past that are still applicable to the
present, despite cultural and sociological developments. Isn’t it ironic that
we are living in an era where technology can connect us easily but we still
remain disconnected - Especially to people that matters, like our mothers.Tanggang: The Unfilial Son (Malay)Asal Si Tanggang insan biasa,Tempat tinggalnya di ceruk desa,Rajin bekerja setiap masa,Kepada ibu menabur jasa.
Datanglah bahtera sebuah negeri,
Si Tanggang bekerja perhambakan diri,
Akhirnya nakhoda pangkat diberi,
Berkahwin pula dengan puteri.Setelah sekian lama mengembara,Kapal menyusur kembali ke muara,Terlihat Si Tanggang dalam bahteraKepada ibu dikhabarkan segera.
Apabila mendengar anaknya pulang,
Ibu membawa pisang dipanggang,
Hajat dihati tak mahu berenggang,
Kerana rindunya bukan kepalang.Lantaran malu mengaku diri,Si Tanggang tak mahu dihampiri,Ibu diherdik dan
diusiri,Pilu si ibu tidak terperi.
Melihat sikap anaknya itu,
Hancur luluh hati si ibu,
Doa dipohon kepada Yang Satu, Si
anak disumpah menjadi batu.
Cerita rakyat ini terkenal diantara masyarakat Melayu pada
satu ketika dahulu dan ia berlandaskan prinsip hidup seperti hormat kepada ibu
bapa, keharmonian dalam jalinan keluarga dan budi pekerti yang baik.
