The Adventures of Pinocchio — Page 6

English → Vi CHAPTER 23 Level 3/10

" said the fisher folk on the shore, whispering a prayer as they turned to go home.

" những ngư dân trên bờ nói, thì thầm một lời cầu nguyện khi họ quay về nhà.

Just then a desperate cry was heard.

Đúng lúc đó, một tiếng kêu tuyệt vọng vang lên.

Turning around, the fisher folk saw Pinocchio dive into the sea and heard him cry out:

Quay người lại, những ngư dân nhìn thấy Pinocchio lao xuống biển và nghe cậu hét lên:

"I'll save him! I'll save my father!"

"Tôi sẽ cứu anh ấy! Tôi sẽ cứu cha tôi!"

The Marionette, being made of wood, floated easily along and swam like a fish in the rough water.

Con Rối, được làm bằng gỗ, nổi dễ dàng trên mặt nước và bơi như một con cá trong làn nước dữ.

Now and again he disappeared only to reappear once more.

Thỉnh thoảng cậu biến mất rồi lại xuất hiện trở lại.

In a twinkling, he was far away from land.

Chỉ trong nháy mắt, cậu đã ở rất xa bờ.

At last he was completely lost to view.

Cuối cùng cậu hoàn toàn khuất khỏi tầm mắt.

"Poor boy!" cried the fisher folk on the shore, and again they mumbled a few prayers, as they returned home.

"Tội nghiệp cậu bé!" những ngư dân trên bờ kêu lên, và một lần nữa họ lầm bầm vài lời cầu nguyện khi họ trở về nhà.
