English to Spanish: Cinderella (Transcreation) General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English What Cinderella suffered from the two
sisters and her step mother, how she grew
into a fairy-princess here is seen,
told by a pair of scissors on a screen.
Snip! and we have the king’s R. S. V. P.!
Snip! and the magic birds have set her free,
pecking the lentis from the ashes, but
“No place at Court”, they tell her, “for a slut”.
Snip! And she gathers from her apple-trees
the golden gown of the Hesperides,
the silver coach. But, “When the clock strikes one”,
warn the bird-voices, “Cinderella, run!”
Snip! and the ball, the lights, the trumpeters,
the high Pavane, the Prince’s heart – all hers!
Snip! and the time remorseless seeks to trip her,
flying, she takes his soul, but leaves her slipper!
Snip! and what can a royal lover do,
but tell the world “My kingdom for a shoe.”
They search, they measure. Ladies pinch and strain,
one sister even cuts her foot – in vain!
For snip! A bird has whispered in his ear
“Seek in the cellar, prince! Your bride is here!”
She comes, she fits in the shoe, she curtseys, and
passes forever into fairyland.
Translation - Spanish Cómo Cenicienta por sus hermanas y madrastra sufrió
y cómo luego en princesa se convirtió,
ustedes hoy verán.
Y esta historia unas tijeras con gracia contarán.
¡Corte! La invitación del rey ha llegado.
¡Corte! Los pájaros mágicos a Cenicienta han liberado
y las lentejas de las cenizas han juntado.
"La Corte no es para rameras", le dicen, "hazte a un lado".
¡Corte! El árbol mágico la envuelve
en el manto de oro de las Hespérides.
"Pero cuando el reloj dé la una", le advierten las aves,
"corre, corre, todo se esfuma".
¡Corte! El baile, las luces, las trompetas,
la pavana, el corazón del príncipe, todo fue de ella.
¡Corte! Cuando el tiempo volando pasó,
se llevó el alma del príncipe, pero su zapato olvidó.
¡Corte! El príncipe enamorado
busca a la damisela que su zapato ha olvidado.
Buscan, miden. Todas en el zapato quieren entrar.
Y una de las hermanastras hasta se corta el pulgar.
¡Y corte! Un pajarito le susurra al príncipe al oído:
"En el sótano, a tu princesa han escondido".
Su pie entra en el zapato, calza perfecto,
y se convierte para siempre en la princesa del cuento.
