Royauté
Language: French (Français)
Available translation(s): CHI ENG ENG SPA
Un beau matin, chez un peuple fort doux, un homme
et une femme superbes criaient sur la place
publique: "Mes amis, je veux qu'elle soit reine!"
"Je veux être reine!" Elle riait et tremblait. Il
parlait aux amis de révélation, d'épreuve terminée.
Ils se pâmaient l'un contre l'autre.
En effet ils furent rois toute une matinée où les
tentures carminées se relevèrent sur les maisons,
et toute l'après-midi, où ils s'avancèrent du côté
des jardins de palmes.

Realeza
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the French (Français)
Una hermosa mañana, en un pueblo muy amable, un hombre
y una mujer extraordinarios gritaban en la plaza
pública. "¡Amigos míos, quiero que ella sea reina!"
"Quiero ser reina". Ella reía y temblaba. Él
hablaba a los amigos de revelación, de prueba terminada.
Caían extasiados el uno junto el otro.
De hecho fueron reyes toda una mañana en que las
colgaduras carmesíes se desplegaron en las casas,
y toda la tarde, en que juntos avanzaron
por los jardines de palmas.
