The story concerns Amahl, a poor crippled boy who lives with his mother, as they are visited by [[TheThreeWiseMen the three kings]] on the night of {{Jesus}}' birth. Amahl has a habit of lying, and his mother initially does not believe him when he talks about the unusual star he sees. When she sees the riches that the kings have and intend to give to the infant Jesus, she attempts to steal the gold. King Melchior, however, forgives her when he sees Amahl defend her.
