Scene 1 · Beginner
Az év utolsó estéje volt. Nagyon hideg volt, esett a hó, és lassan sötét lett. Egy szegény kislány járta az utcákat. Nem volt rajta sapka, és mezítláb ment.
It was the last evening of the year. It was very cold, snow was falling, and it was slowly getting dark. A poor little girl walked along the streets. She had no hat on and was barefoot.
Otthon még felvette az anyja papucsát, de az túl nagy volt neki. Amikor két gyors kocsi elől átszaladt az úton, mindkét papucs leesett a lábáról. Az egyiket nem találta meg. A másikat egy fiú felkapta, és elszaladt vele.
At home, she had put on her mother’s slippers, but they were too big for her. When she ran across the road to get away from two fast carriages, both slippers fell off. She couldn’t find one of them. A boy picked up the other one and ran off with it.
