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!
