The researchers would like to research an Acehnese saga or hikayat, titled Pocut Muhammad saga. The representation of power and social context in the text can be seen by applying Norman Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) method to this story analysis. By using critical discourse analysis developed by Norman Fairlough, the analysis seeks to uncover hidden meanings throughout the story's sentences structure. Since critical discourse analysis by Norman A. Fairclough offers insight into how a text may represent social practice that takes place in society, this theory is decided to be the one that the researchers have chosen. The research method employed is descriptive qualitative, including text analysis technique. Based on the linguistic elements described in this research, the researchers concluded that the structure of the Acehnese language differs significantly from real Indonesian. The second result shows as a leader needs to be someone who can be trusted, who is fair, who values unity and his people above all else, and who never gives up. That is the hidden meaning of this story.
