Her parents took every possible care, but in vain.In the same time, a mysterious light shined in the neighboring sea. The fishermen couldn’t fish at all. They suspected the light disturbed their fishing. But no one wanted to go to see the source of the light. The mother of the poor girl without hair thought there had been any reason of her daughter’s trouble and decided to seek the source of the light on behalf of fishermen. She eventually found a tiny image of Kannon in the bottom of the sea. She picked up the image, brought it home and prayed to it everyday. For everyone’s surprise, the hair of the girl grew longer. She was grown up into a fabulous girl with gorgeous long hair. People called her the Long Haired Princess. The fame of the long-haired princess reached to the capital city Nara. Minister Fuhito Fujiwara invited her to the capital. Minister Fuhito adopted her into his family, named her Miyako Fujiwara and send her to serve in the palace of the Emperor. In 697, Miyako was chosen to be a bride to the Emperor. Miyako was worrying about her real parents and small image of Kannon in her home village.

A Lenda da Princesa de Cabelos Compridos é uma antiga lenda clássica do Japão. Foi há cerca de 1300 anos atrás, uma bebezinha nasceu na casa do chefe de um dos pescadores. Ela não tinha nenhum cabelo em sua cabeça. Seus pais fizeram tudo que podiam, mas em vão. Na mesma época, uma luz misteriosa brilhou no mar próximo. Desde então os pescadores não conseguiam pescar mais nada. Eles suspeitavam a luz assustava os peixes, mas ninguém tinha coragem de se aproximar da luz. A humilde mãe da menina sem cabelo achou que a solução do problema de sua filha poderia ter alguma coisa a haver com aquela luz e decidiu averiguar. Ela finalmente encontrou uma pequena imagem de Kannon no fundo do mar. Pegou a imagem, trouxe para casa e orou para ela todos os dias. Para surpresa de todos, o cabelo da menina começou a crescer dia após dia. A bebê tornou-se uma belíssima moça e o povo do vilarejo apelidou-a de Princesa dos Longos Cabelos. A fama da princesa de cabelos compridos chegou à capital Nara. O Ministro Fuhito Fujiwara convidou-a para visitar a capital. Ele acabou adotando-a e a nomeou Miyako Fujiwara e mandou-a para servir no palácio do Imperador. Em 697, Miyako foi escolhida para ser uma noiva para o imperador. Mas Miyako preocupava-se muito com seus pais verdadeiros e com a pequena imagem de Kannon em sua aldeia natal. O imperador mandou então que construíssem um belo templo budista lá, para abrigar sua família e a estátua. - texto original de Dodogi
