双语故事 牧鹅姑娘(8)
The next morning when they were driving the geese out through the dark gateway, the maiden said, "Alas, Falada, hanging there!"
Falada answered: Alas, young queen, passing by, If this your mother knew, Her heart would break in two.
She sat down again in the field and began combing out her hair. When Conrad ran up and tried to take hold of some, she quickly said: Blow, wind, blow, Take Conrad's hat, And make him chase it, Until I have braided my hair, And tied it up again.
Then the wind blew, taking the hat off his head and far away. Conrad had to run after it, and when he came back, she had already put up her hair, and he could not get a single strand. Then they tended the geese until evening.
That evening, after they had returned home, Conrad went to the old king and said, "I won't tend geese with that girl any longer."
