Scene 1 · Beginner
För länge sedan levde en kejsare som älskade nya kläder. Han lade alla sina pengar på att köpa dem. Han brydde sig varken om sina soldater eller om teatern. Helst åkte han ut i sin vagn för att visa upp sina nya kläder.
Long ago, there lived an emperor who loved new clothes. He spent all his money buying them. He cared neither about his soldiers nor about the theater. What he liked best was to go out in his carriage to show off his new clothes.
Kejsaren hade en rock för varje timme på dagen. När någon frågade var han var, brukade svaret vara: ”Han är i rummet där han har sina kläder.”
The emperor had a coat for every hour of the day. When someone asked where he was, the answer was usually: “He is in the room where he keeps his clothes.”
