Scene 1 · Intermediate
Μια φορά κι έναν καιρό ζούσαν ένας άντρας και μια γυναίκα που ήθελαν πολύ να αποκτήσουν παιδί. Για χρόνια η επιθυμία τους δεν πραγματοποιούνταν, ώσπου η γυναίκα άρχισε επιτέλους να ελπίζει ότι ο Θεός θα τους χάριζε σύντομα ένα παιδί.
Once upon a time, there lived a man and a woman who longed to have a child. For years their wish went unfulfilled, until the woman finally began to hope that God would soon bless them with a child.
Στο πίσω μέρος του σπιτιού τους υπήρχε ένα μικρό παράθυρο που έβλεπε σε έναν υπέροχο κήπο, γεμάτο όμορφα λουλούδια και μυρωδικά. Ένας ψηλός τοίχος τον χώριζε από τον έξω κόσμο. Κανείς δεν τολμούσε να μπει, επειδή ο κήπος ανήκε σε μια μάγισσα με μεγάλη δύναμη, που όλοι τη φοβούνταν.
At the back of their house was a small window overlooking a beautiful garden full of lovely flowers and herbs. A high wall separated it from the outside world. No one dared enter, because the garden belonged to a powerful witch whom everyone feared.
