Ibong Adarna by Anonymous

When King Fernando falls gravely ill, his three sons embark on a perilous quest to capture the legendary Adarna bird, whose enchanted songs can cure him.

Their journey unfolds through betrayal, enchantments, rescues of imprisoned princesses, and tests of character that determine not only their father's fate but their own destinies in this tale of adventure and family rivalry.
