Scene 1 · Intermediate
A fost odată un bărbat care trăia cu soția lui. Își doriseră multă vreme un copil, dar dorința lor rămăsese neîmplinită. În cele din urmă, femeia a început să spere că Dumnezeu avea să le dăruiască un copil.
Once upon a time, there was a man who lived with his wife. They had long wished for a child, but their wish had not come true. At last, the woman began to hope that God would give them a child.
În spatele casei aveau o fereastră mică, de unde se vedea o grădină minunată, plină de flori și de plante frumoase. Un zid înalt înconjura grădina, iar nimeni nu îndrăznea să-l treacă: locul îi aparținea unei vrăjitoare atât de puternice, încât toată lumea se temea de ea.
At the back of their house, they had a small window that looked out onto a wonderful garden full of flowers and beautiful plants. A high wall surrounded the garden, and no one dared to cross it: the place belonged to a witch so powerful that everyone was afraid of her.
