English to Spanish: Granny's Woderful Chair by Frances Browne Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English "Up rose Fairyfoot and Princess Maybloom, and went together till they
found the bramble, and came to where its root grew, hard by the
muddy-looking well, with banks of dark green moss in the deepest dell of
the forest. Fairyfoot sat down to wash, but at that minute he heard a
sound of music, and knew it was the fairies going to their dancing
ground.
"'If my feet grow large,' said the boy to himself, 'how shall I dance
with them?' So, rising quickly, he took the Princess Maybloom by the
hand. The fawn followed them; the maids and the chamberlain followed it,
and all followed the music through the forest. At last they came to the
flowery green. Robin Goodfellow welcomed the company for Fairyfoot's
sake, and gave every one a drink of the fairies' wine. So they danced
there from sunset till the grey morning, and nobody was tired; but
before the lark sang, Robin Goodfellow took them all safe home, as he
used to take Fairyfoot.
Translation - Spanish Piesdehada y Brotedemayo se levantaron y se dirigieron hacia
el arbusto y llegaron hasta donde crecía su raíz, junto al pozo de
apariencia lodosa, con bordes llenos de musgo verde oscuro, en el
valle más profundo del bosque. Piesdehada se sentó para lavarse
y, en ese momento, oyó el sonido de una música y reconoció a las
hadas que se dirigían a su pista de baile.
—Si me crecen los pies —se dijo el muchacho para sus adentros—,
¿cómo podré bailar con ellas?
Entonces se levantó rápidamente y se llevó a Brotedemayo de la
mano. El cervatillo los siguió. Las damas y el chambelán siguieron
al cervatillo, y todos siguieron el sonido de la música por el bosque.

Llegaron al prado de flores. Petirrojo Buentipo le dio la bienvenida
al grupo en nombre de Piesdehada y le ofreció a cada uno un trago
del vino de las hadas. Así, bailaron allí desde el atardecer hasta la
madrugada gris, y nadie se cansó. Antes de que cantara la alondra,
Petirrojo Buentipo los llevó a todos a su casa, como solía hacer con
Piesdehada.
