The Wonderful Wizard of Oz — Page 6
He lives in the City of Emeralds."
Er lebt in der Stadt der Smaragde."
Dorothy was going to ask another question, but just then the Munchkins, who had been standing silently by, gave a loud shout and pointed to the corner of the house where the Wicked Witch had been lying.
Dorothy wollte gerade eine weitere Frage stellen, aber genau in diesem Moment stießen die Munchkins, die schweigend daneben gestanden hatten, einen lauten Schrei aus und zeigten auf die Ecke des Hauses, wo die Böse Hexe gelegen hatte.
The feet of the dead Witch had disappeared entirely, and nothing was left but the silver shoes.
Die Füße der toten Hexe waren vollständig verschwunden, und nichts war übrig geblieben außer den silbernen Schuhen.
That is the end of her.
Das ist ihr Ende.
But the silver shoes are yours, and you shall have them to wear."
Aber die silbernen Schuhe gehören dir, und du sollst sie tragen."
She reached down and picked up the shoes, and after shaking the dust out of them handed them to Dorothy.
Sie bückte sich und hob die Schuhe auf, und nachdem sie den Staub aus ihnen herausgeschüttelt hatte, reichte sie sie Dorothy.
Dorothy carried the shoes into the house and placed them on the table.
Dorothy trug die Schuhe ins Haus und legte sie auf den Tisch.
Then she came out again to the Munchkins and said:
Dann kam sie wieder zu den Munchkins heraus und sagte:
"I am anxious to get back to my aunt and uncle, for I am sure they will worry about me.
„Ich möchte unbedingt zu meiner Tante und meinem Onkel zurückkehren, denn ich bin sicher, dass sie sich um mich sorgen werden.
Can you help me find my way?"
Können Sie mir helfen, meinen Weg zu finden?"
The Munchkins and the Witch first looked at one another, and then at Dorothy, and then shook their heads.
Die Munchkins und die Hexe sahen sich zunächst gegenseitig an, dann Dorothy, und schüttelten dann ihre Köpfe.
