The Mock Turtle sighed deeply, and began, in a voice sometimes choked with sobs, to sing this:—

La Falsa Tortuga suspiró profundamente y comenzó, con una voz a veces ahogada por los sollozos, a cantar esto:—

"Beautiful Soup, so rich and green, Waiting in a hot tureen!

"¡Hermosa Sopa, tan rica y verde, Esperando en una sopera caliente!

Who for such dainties would not stoop?

¿Quién por tales delicias no se inclinaría?

Soup of the evening, beautiful Soup!

¡Sopa de la noche, hermosa Sopa!

¡Her—moosa So—opa!

Soo—oop of the e—e—evening,

So—opa de la no—o—che,

Beautiful, beautiful Soup!

¡Hermosa, hermosa Sopa!

"Beautiful Soup! Who cares for fish, Game, or any other dish?

"¡Hermosa Sopa! ¿A quién le importa el pescado, La caza, o cualquier otro plato?

Who would not give all else for two p ennyworth only of beautiful Soup?

¿Quién no daría todo lo demás por solo dos peniques de hermosa Sopa?

Pennyworth only of beautiful Soup?

¿Solo un penique de hermosa Sopa?

Beau—ootiful Soo—oop!

¡Her—moosa So—opa!

Beau—ootiful Soo—oop!

¡Her—moosa So—opa!

Soo—oop of the e—e—evening,

So—opa de la no—o—che,

Beautiful, beauti—FUL SOUP!"

¡Hermosa, hermo—SA SOPA!"

"Chorus again!" cried the Gryphon, and the Mock Turtle had just begun to repeat it, when a cry of "The trial's beginning!" was heard in the distance.

"¡El coro otra vez!" gritó el Grifo, y la Falsa Tortuga apenas había comenzado a repetirlo, cuando se oyó a lo lejos un grito de "¡El juicio comienza!"

"Come on!" cried the Gryphon, and, taking Alice by the hand, it hurried off, without waiting for the end of the song.

"¡Vamos!" gritó el Grifo, y, tomando a Alicia de la mano, salió apresuradamente, sin esperar el final de la canción.

"What trial is it?" Alice panted as she ran; but the Gryphon only answered "Come on!" and ran the faster, while more and more faintly came, carried on the breeze that followed them, the melancholy words:—

"¿Qué juicio es?" jadeó Alicia mientras corría; pero el Grifo solo respondió "¡Vamos!" y corrió más rápido, mientras más y más débilmente llegaban, llevadas por la brisa que los seguía, las melancólicas palabras:—

"Soo—oop of the e—e—evening,

"So—opa de la no—o—che,

Beautiful, beautiful Soup!

¡Hermosa, hermosa Sopa!
