letra de happy prince - william worth

this is a tale about a happy prince statue and a little swallow. the happy prince was a magnificent statue that stood high above the city on a tall column. the statue was draped in thin gold leaves. his eyes were sapphires, and his sword was a ruby
a small swallow flew over the city one night. he was exhausted and desired to spend the night between the happy prince’s feet. a big drop of water dropped on him just as he was about to fall asleep. there were no clouds in the sky, which was odd. then a second drop of water landed on him. the swallow turned to look for another location when the third drop dropped on him; he looked up and saw that these were the tears from the happy prince’s eyes, and he felt pity for him. “who are you,” the swallow inquired, and “why are you crying?” the happy prince told the swallow that when he was alive, he lived in a palace and had a human heart. his and his courtiers dubbed him the “happy prince” because he showed no signs of sadness. he was erected on a high pillar after his death; his heart is still made of lead, and it weeps whenever he sees the ugliness and suffering of his city. he told the swallow that a seamstress’s little boy was sick far away on a small lane. he’s screaming, and his mother is unable to feed him oranges. when he went to egypt, he asked the swallow to give his ruby to the poor women. but he obeyed the happy prince and flew to the poor women’s table, where he put the ruby
the happy prince then came across a writer. he was starving and suffering from a cold. the writer was given one of the sapphires by the happy prince, who asked the swallow to give it to him. the swallow did not want to remove the sapphire from his eyes, but he had no choice but to follow him. the happy prince then noticed a match girl and her matches falling into the gutter. the swallow reluctantly plucked the sapphire from the happy prince’s other eye at his instruction, and the prince was now completely blind. the sapphire was slipped into the palm of the match girl by the swallow. the happy prince then let the made by- prabha verma,a.t. g.i.c.pattharkhani, pithoragarh swallow fly away to egypt, but the swallow chose to remain with the blind prince for the rest of his life
the starving people’s plight was recorded by the swallow. the happy prince ordered the swallow to remove the golden leaves from the statue and distribute them to the needy
the statue had been drab and grey. the frost was making the swallow grow colder and colder, and he was on the verge of dying. he flew over to the happy prince, who requested that he kiss him on the lips. the swallow plummeted to its death at the statue’s feet. the prince’s lead heart split in half
the mayor requested that the statue be demolished because it was no longer functional or beautiful. in the furnace, the shattered heart did not melt. it was cast away on a dust heap, alongside the dead swallow. god instructed the angels to carry the city’s two most valuable items. god thanked the angel for giving him the happy prince’s leaden heart and the dead swallow. myarticles
