Tung Tung Tung Sahur

“Tung Tung Sahur: The Wooden Wake-Up Hero” In the winding alleyways of the lantern-lit town of Tikarra, every dawn began not with birdsong, but with a joyful rhythm echoing through the quiet — TUNG… TUNG… TUNG! That was the work of Tung Tung Sahur, the legendary walking wooden drumstick with a grin as wide as a crescent moon. Carved from the heart of an ancient storytelling tree and enchanted by a village elder who accidentally spilled enchanted coffee on him, Tung Tung came to life with one mission: “Wake the world with rhythm and joy!” And wake them he did. Every morning during the season of Sahur — the pre-dawn meal before fasting — he would stomp through the streets barefoot, tapping his trusty handheld wake-up stick on pots, pans, fences, and even sleepy rooftops. People loved him. Children would follow in pajama parades, old aunties would dance on their doorsteps, and sleepy uncles would grumble, then chuckle, then stretch and smile. But Tung Tung Sahur was more than a musical alarm clock. He was a guardian of community, a symbol of togetherness, and a wooden beacon of spirit. One year, when a powerful sleep fog rolled in from the north, making everyone drowsy for weeks, it was Tung Tung who marched non-stop for three nights straight, beating his stick like a metronome of hope. The spell broke on the fourth sunrise, when he pounded a perfect “TUNGTUNGTUNG!” that echoed through every dream and gently shook people awake. Now, even outside the season, his fame continues. He travels town to town, waking people for Sahur, weddings, school exams, and even surprise birthdays. His motto? “No snooze. No lose. Let the drums choose!” So if you’re ever up before dawn and hear a friendly knock in the distance… don’t hide under the covers. That’s not thunder. That’s Tung Tung Sahur — and he’s bringing joy to your doorstep.
