La princesa se entristece<br />
por su dulce flor de luz,<br />
cuando entonces aparece<br />
sonriendo el buen Jes?s.<br />
65Y asi dice: "En mis campi?as<br />
esa rosa le ofrec?;<br />
son mis flores de las ni?as<br />
que al sonar piensan en m?".<br />
Viste el rey ropas brillantes,<br />
70y luego hace desfilar<br />
cuatrocientos elefantes<br />
a la orilla de la mar.<br />
La princesa est? bella,<br />
pues ya tiene el prendedor<br />
75en que lucen, con la estrella,<br />
verso, perla, pluma y flor.<br />
The princess grew pale and mournful<br />
For her lovely flower of light;<br />
But then kind Jesus appeared to them<br />
His smile it was sweet and bright.<br />
65"In my country's fields up yonder<br />
I gave her that rose," said he.<br />
"My flowers belong to the little girls<br />
Who think and who dream of me."<br />
The king donned glittering garments,<br />
70And there by the shore he made<br />
Four hundred elephants tall and grave<br />
March past in a grand parade.<br />
And the princess is fair to look on,<br />
With her breatpin, the happy girl;<br />
75For it shines with the star, with a poet's<br />
verse,<br />
With a feather, a flower and a pearl!
