Grimms' Fairy Tales — Page 8
' As he took up the golden saddle the groom awoke and cried out so loud, that all the guards ran in and took him prisoner, and in the morning he was again brought before the court to be judged, and was sentenced to die.
Quando ele pegou a sela dourada, o cavalariço acordou e gritou tão alto que todos os guardas correram para dentro e o fizeram prisioneiro, e de manhã ele foi novamente levado perante o tribunal para ser julgado, e foi condenado à morte.
But it was agreed, that, if he could bring thither the beautiful princess, he should live, and have the bird and the horse given him for his own.
Mas ficou acordado que, se ele pudesse trazer até lá a bela princesa, ele viveria, e teria o pássaro e o cavalo dados a ele como seus.
Then he went his way very sorrowful; but the old fox came and said, 'Why did not you listen to me?
Então ele seguiu seu caminho muito pesaroso; mas a velha raposa veio e disse: 'Por que você não me ouviu?
If you had, you would have carried away both the bird and the horse; yet will I once more give you counsel.
Se tivesse ouvido, teria levado tanto o pássaro quanto o cavalo; mas ainda assim darei mais um conselho a você.
Go straight on, and in the evening you will arrive at a castle.
Siga em frente, e à tarde você chegará a um castelo.
At twelve o'clock at night the princess goes to the bathing-house: go up to her and give her a kiss, and she will let you lead her away; but take care you do not suffer her to go and take leave of her father and mother.'
À meia-noite, a princesa vai à casa de banhos: aproxime-se dela e dê-lhe um beijo, e ela deixará que você a leve embora; mas tome cuidado para não permitir que ela vá se despedir de seu pai e de sua mãe.'
Then the fox stretched out his tail, and so away they went over stock and stone till their hair whistled again.
Então a raposa estendeu sua cauda, e assim foram eles por sobre troncos e pedras até que seus cabelos assobiaram novamente.
