The story of I. Bormotov from the book "Melodies of the Blue Mountains" - "The Legend of the Belaya River".
The Belaya River is the main river of the Republic of Adygea. It carries its waters through the dense forest jungle of the Caucasian Reserve, breaks off into the abyss with a powerful cascade of waterfalls of the Victoria Canyon, cuts through the rocky vice of the ridges, seethes, bubbles and foams in stone rapids, relentlessly turns powerful turbine shafts, giving people light and warmth. The Belaya River has 5 canyons: Victoria, Tolapanovsky, Big granite, Shum (Khadzhokhskaya gorge) and Tula gorge.
Taking its beginning from the Fisht-Oshtenovsky pass, it is filled with melt moisture from the Fisht glaciers and Oshten snowfields. From the source to the confluence, it falls from a height of 2283 meters, stretching among the mountain ranges for 270 kilometers. Its turbulent waters fill more than 60 mountain rivers, rivulets and streams. The largest, most beautiful and picturesque mountain rivers are Kisha and Dakh, Pshekha and Kurdzhips.
The river-beauty, the river-worker, the river-nurse carries its fast waters to the elder sister of the Kuban. Her beauty fascinates us, we love her and aspire to her, in order to at least sometimes see how silver strands of crystal water foamed on thresholds and rifts are woven into the blue jets of a fast stream.
We like how the river on its wide reaches with a gentle rustle caresses multi-colored stones polished to a shine, how it bathes in the rays of the sun, illuminating everything around with magical light, how it flickers with sparkles of reflections of sunbeams. There are many legends about the beautiful mountain river associated with its name. Here are some of them.
From ancient times, the Belaya River is called the Adygs by the name Skhaguashe - as the sovereign mistress of the house, principality and mountain country. Here is the legend associated with this name. There lived in one of the mountain villages a prince who sacredly honored the laws of the mountains and the ancient customs of the people. He was proud, courageous and fair to people. He loved and respected his people for this.
But one day, while visiting a neighboring village, he saw a girl of unprecedented beauty and fell in love with her. The prince could not live without his beloved. He sent ambassadors to the village with gifts and bride price, and betrothed a girl. So she became his wife. But the outwardly beautiful woman turned out to be a cruel, selfish, proud and capricious wife of the prince. Everything would be fine, but her whims knew no bounds. She demanded for herself more and more expensive clothes, jewelry, honors, the worship of her husband and those around her. The prince did everything just to please her.
The prince's treasury was depleted, the tribute collected from the people was no longer enough for the princess. It was already not enough for her to command the men of the family. She wanted to subdue the mountains, forests and rivers. Even for the sun to shine when she wants. The prince could not fulfill the impossible. In anger, having gathered the servants, the princess left for her native village. The prince could not cope with her obstinate character and sent messengers to the wise old man, who lived high in the mountains, to ask for advice.
The old man listened to the messengers and sent them home without saying a word to them. Having waited for the messengers from the sage, who brought a disappointing answer, the prince was completely homesick. The prince could not live a day without his beloved. He sent his faithful servant after her with a request to return home and a promise that he would fulfill her will and any of her desires. The princess found out about the prince's request and became completely distraught. Gathered her many servants, and set off on the road with the words:“Now I, Skhaguashe, have full sovereignty over the prince and his people. Head of the principality. I will do whatever I want...
At this time, a terrible roar shook the mountains, a sheaf of lightning threw the sky. The obstinate beauty fell to the ground from her horse and turned into a stormy, furious river. Faithful servants of the princess, became mountain tributaries of the river, with the same grumpy and indomitable character as the mistress. Another legend says that...
It was a very long time ago, when the inhabitants of the mountains who were at war with each other made destructive raids on neighboring tribes. And then one day a detachment of horsemen, led by a cruel prince, broke into the mountain village. A gray-haired old man stood up to defend his home, but he could not cope with strong and dexterous warriors.
A young woman rushed to help her father beautiful girl, but she could not resist the onslaught of the riders. Her father died from a saber blow, and she was tied up and taken into captivity, to an ancient castle on high mountain, and the grumpy old woman Fisiabgo was left to look after her. Bella, that was the name of the girl, became a prisoner of the cruel prince. Struck by her beauty, he offered the girl to become his wife. But Bella could not come to terms with her father's killer. For a long time she thought about how to take revenge on the villain. She managed to steal the dagger from the guard, and then she asked for expensive outfits to meet with the prince.
Late in the evening, the servants let the girl into the prince's apartment. He, unaware of the bad, and thinking that the girl had reconciled, hugged her. And then he was struck with a dagger in the heart. Bella went out into the yard, mounted her horse and rushed away from the castle. Finding the prince dead, the servants rushed after her in pursuit. For a long time the girl left the chase, in front of her was a river, squeezed by high rocky banks. The pursuers are already close, and then Bella decided to jump over the terrible abyss. Spurring her horse, she rushed into the boiling abyss of a mountain river.
In the old days, when the highlanders lived according to the law of the mountains and customs, when honor and good rumor about the owner of the family were valued above all, the prince's daughter grew up, and her name was Shkhaguashe. It's time to marry off your daughter. The prince ordered to gather brave fellows from all the surroundings for jigitovka - an equestrian sport festival of the highlanders. He offered his daughter to choose a groom from the brave young men, but set the condition that he be rich and of a noble family.
Many young horsemen took part in the competitions, but she liked only one brave and dexterous rider. He skillfully wielded weapons, shot at full gallop without a miss, was stately and handsome. Shaguashe and the young man met their eyes, and fell in love with each other. When the time came for Shkhaguasha to name the chosen one, she named the name of the highlander. But he did not belong to a noble family and was not rich. The father got angry for disobeying his daughter and ordered to sew up the beloved in a leather bag and throw them into the turbulent stream of a mountain river.
The river splashed the young on the coastal sand in the dense forest. They began to live on the gifts of the forest among the wild deer. Time passed, the prince grew old, fell ill. No conspiracies and medicines helped him. Old people advised to drink reindeer milk, and then the disease will recede, strength will return. The servants of the prince scattered to all corners of the world to look for healing milk. And, one of them soon returned with a jug tied with a shkhaguashe scarf. The prince drank milk and was healed. He recognized his daughter's handkerchief on the jug, forgave her, invited her back to the village.Since then, the mountain river has been named Shkhaguashe, which in translation from the Adyghe sounds like "princess, mistress of deer."
