Κοντά στο πηγάδι υπήρχαν τα ερείπια ενός παλιού πέτρινου τοίχου.
Close|to|well|there were|the|ruins||||
Near the well were the ruins of an old stone wall.
Perto do poço, havia as ruínas de um velho muro de pedra.
Όταν γύρισα από τη δουλειά μου, το άλλο βράδυ, είδα από μακριά τον μικρό μου πρίγκιπα καθισμένο εκεί πάνω, με τα πόδια κρεμασμένα.
||||||||||||||||||||||hanging
Quando cheguei a casa do trabalho na noite seguinte, vi o meu pequeno príncipe sentado lá ao longe, com as pernas penduradas.
Και τον άκουσα που μιλούσε: «Δεν θυμάσαι πλέον;» έλεγε.
And I heard him speak: "Don't you remember anymore?" he was saying.
E ouvi-o falar: "Já não te lembras?", dizia ele.
«Δεν είναι ακριβώς εδώ!» Μια άλλη φωνή θα του απάντησε, αναμφίβολα, γιατί ξανάπε: «Ναι, ναι!
||||||||||undoubtedly||said again||
"It's not right here!" Another voice would answer him, no doubt, for he said again: “Yes, yes!
"Não é exatamente aqui!" Outra voz deve ter-lhe respondido, sem dúvida, porque ele voltou a dizer: "Sim, sim!
Η μέρα είναι σωστή, μα δεν είναι εδώ το μέρος…» Συνέχισα τον δρόμο μου προς τον τοίχο.
|||||||||place|||||||
O dia é propício, mas este não é o lugar..." Continuei o meu caminho até à parede.
Ούτε έβλεπα ούτε άκουγα κανέναν.
I neither saw nor heard anyone.
Não vi nem ouvi ninguém.
Ωστόσο, ο μικρός πρίγκιπας ξανάπε: «…Ασφαλώς.
||||said again|surely
No entanto, o pequeno príncipe voltou a dizer: "...Claro.
Θα δεις πού αρχίζουν τα ίχνη μου πάνω στην άμμο.
|||start||tracks||||
You will see where my footprints begin on the sand.
Vão ver onde começam as minhas pegadas na areia.
Δεν έχεις παρά να με περιμένεις εκεί!
You can only wait for me there!
Tudo o que tens de fazer é esperar por mim lá!
Θα 'ρθω εκεί απόψε».
|come||
Estarei lá esta noite".
Ήμουν σε είκοσι μέτρα απόσταση από τον τοίχο, και ακόμα δεν έβλεπα τίποτα.
I was twenty meters away from the wall, and I still could not see anything.
Estava a vinte metros de distância da parede e continuava a não ver nada.
Ο μικρός πρίγκιπας είπε μετά από ένα μικρό διάστημα σιωπής: «Έχεις καλό δηλητήριο; Είσαι σίγουρο πως δεν θα με κάνεις να υποφέρω πολύ;» Σηκώθηκα αμέσως, με σφιγμένη καρδιά, χωρίς να καταλαβαίνω ακόμα.
||||||||||||poison|||||||||suffer|||||tight|||||
The little prince said after a short period of silence: “Do you have good poison? Are you sure you won't make me suffer too much?” I stood up at once, with a heavy heart, still not understanding.
O pequeno príncipe disse, após um curto intervalo de silêncio: "Tens algum veneno bom? Tens a certeza de que não me vais fazer sofrer demasiado?
«Πήγαινε τώρα σπίτι…» είπε, «θέλω να ξανακατέβω!» Τότε χαμήλωσα κι εγώ τα μάτια προς τη βάση του τοίχου και αναπήδησα!
go||||||come down again||I lowered|||||||||||jumped
"Go home now," he said, "I want to go down again!" Then I lowered my eyes to the base of the wall and jumped!
"Agora vai para casa...", disse ele, "quero descer outra vez!"Depois, também eu baixei os olhos para a base do muro e saltei!
Ήταν εκεί κάτω, σηκωμένο προς τον μικρό πρίγκιπα, ένα από εκείνα τα Κ 26 77 κίτρινα φίδια που σε σκοτώνουν μέσα σε τριάντα δευτερόλεπτα.
||down|raised||||||||||||||kill||||
It was down there, rising toward the little prince, one of those K 26 77 yellow snakes that kill you in thirty seconds.
Estava lá em baixo, levantada até ao pequeno príncipe, uma daquelas cobras amarelas K 26 77 que nos matam em trinta segundos.
Άρχισα να τρέχω προς τα εκεί, ψάχνοντας στην τσέπη μου για να βρω το πιστόλι μου, μα, με το θόρυβο που έκανα, το φίδι γλίστρησε μέσα στην άμμο και, χωρίς να βιάζεται, τρύπωσε μέσα στις πέτρες μ' έναν ανάλαφρο μεταλλικό κρότο.
||||||||||||||pistol|||||noise|||||slid|||||||was in a hurry|burrowed||||||light||noise
Comecei a correr em direção a ela, tirando a pistola do bolso, mas, com o barulho que fiz, a serpente deslizou para a areia e, sem pressa, deslizou por entre as pedras com um leve estrondo metálico.
Έφτασα στον τοίχο ακριβώς πάνω στην ώρα για να δεχτώ στην αγκαλιά μου τον μικρό μου πρίγκιπα, κάτασπρο σαν το χιόνι.
|||||||||accept||||||||pure white|||
I reached the wall just in time to receive my little prince in my arms, white as snow.
«Τι είναι πάλι αυτή η ιστορία!
“What is this story again!
"Que história é esta?
Μιλάς τώρα και με τα φίδια!» Έλυσα το αιώνιο κασκόλ του στο χρώμα του χρυσού.
||||||I untied||eternal||||||
You are talking to the snakes now! " I untied his eternal scarf in the color of gold.
Agora estás a falar com cobras!" Desamarrei-lhe o eterno lenço dourado.
Του έβρεξα τα μηνίγγια και του έδωσα να πιει.
|I rained||brain|||||
I wet his meninges and gave him a drink.
Molhei-lhe as meninges e dei-lhe de beber.
Και πλέον δεν τολμούσα τώρα να τον ρωτήσω τίποτα.
|||I was daring|||||
And now I did not dare to ask him anything.
E agora já não me atrevia a perguntar-lhe nada.
Με κοίταξε σοβαρά και πέρασε τα χέρια του γύρω στον λαιμό μου.
||||passed|||||||
He looked at me seriously and put his arms around my neck.
Olhou para mim com seriedade e passou as mãos pelo meu pescoço.
Ένιωθα την καρδιά του να χτυπάει όπως η καρδιά ενός ετοιμοθάνατου πουλιού που το έχουν χτυπήσει με καραμπίνα.
||||||||||dying|||||||shotgun
I felt his heart beating like the heart of a dying bird that had been hit with a carbine.
Sentia o seu coração a bater como o de um pássaro moribundo atingido por um tiro de caçadeira.
Μου είπε: «Είμαι χαρούμενος που βρήκες τι έλειπε από τη μηχανή σου.
|||||||was missing||||
He told me: "I'm glad you found what was missing from your machine.
Disse-me: "Ainda bem que encontraste o que faltava na tua bicicleta.
Θα μπορέσεις να ξαναγυρίσεις στον τόπο σου…» «Πώς το ξέρεις;» Ερχόμουν ακριβώς για να του ανακοινώσω πως, πέρα από κάθε ελπίδα, τα είχα καταφέρει!
||||||||||I was coming|||||||||||||
You will be able to return to your place… "" How do you know? " I was just coming to tell him that, beyond all hope, I had succeeded!
Poderá voltar para a sua casa..." "Como é que sabe? "Vinha agora anunciar que, para além de toda a esperança, tinha conseguido!
Δεν απάντησε στην ερώτησή μου αλλά πρόσθεσε: «Κι εγώ γυρίζω σήμερα στον τόπο μου…» Ύστερα, μελαγχολικά: «Είναι πολύ πιο μακριά… είναι πολύ πιο δύσκολο…» Ένιωθα πως συνέβαινε κάτι παράξενο και ασυνήθιστο.
||||||||||||||then||||||||||||was happening||||unusual
He did not answer my question but added: "I am also returning to my place today..." Then, melancholy: "It is much further... it is much more difficult..." I felt that something strange and unusual was happening.
Não responde à minha pergunta, mas acrescenta: "Hoje também volto para a minha casa..." e depois, melancolicamente: "É muito mais longe... é muito mais difícil..." Senti que algo de estranho e insólito se passava.
Τον έσφιγγα στην αγκαλιά μου όπως ένα μικρό παιδάκι και όμως μου φαινόταν πως κατρακυλούσε κατακόρυφα σε μια άβυσσο χωρίς να μπορώ να κάνω τίποτα για να τον κρατήσω… Το βλέμμα του ήταν σοβαρό, χαμένο μακριά: «Έχω το αρνάκι σου.
|I squeezed|||||||||||||was falling|vertically|||abyss||||||||||keep||||||lost|||||
I held him in my arms like a little child and yet it seemed to me that he was plummeting into an abyss without being able to do anything to hold him... His gaze was serious, lost in the distance: "I have your little lamb.
Agarrei-o nos braços como uma criança e, no entanto, parecia-me que ele estava a cair verticalmente num abismo sem poder fazer nada para o segurar... O seu olhar era sério, perdido na distância: "Tenho o teu cordeirinho.
Και έχω και το κουτί για το αρνάκι.
E eu tenho a caixa para o borrego.
Κι έχω και το φίμωτρο…» Και χαμογέλασε μελαγχολικά.
||||muzzle||smiled|
E eu tenho a mordaça..." e sorriu com saudade.
78 Περίμενα αρκετά.
78 I have waited long enough.
78 Já esperei tempo suficiente.
Ένιωθα πως συνερχόταν λίγο λίγο: «Μικρέ, φοβήθηκες…» Και βέβαια είχε φοβηθεί!
||was recovering||||you were afraid||||
I could feel him coming together little by little: "Little one, you were afraid..." And of course he was!
Senti que ele estava a voltar um pouco: "Rapaz, tiveste medo..." Claro que teve medo!
Μα χαμογέλασε γλυκά: «Θα φοβηθώ πολύ περισσότερο απόψε…» Πάλι ένιωσα να παγώνω απ' το αίσθημα του ανεπανόρθωτου.
|||||||||||freeze|||feeling||irreparable
But he smiled sweetly: "I will be much more afraid tonight..." Again I felt myself freezing from the feeling of the irreparable.
Mas ele sorriu docemente: "Esta noite terei muito mais medo..." Mais uma vez, senti-me gelar com a sensação de irreversibilidade.
Και κατάλαβα πως δεν άντεχα την ιδέα ότι δεν θα άκουγα ποτέ πια αυτό το γέλιο.
||||could bear|||||||||||
E apercebi-me que não conseguia suportar a ideia de que nunca mais iria ouvir aquele riso.
Ήταν για μένα σαν μια πηγή μέσα στην έρημο.
He was to me like a spring in the desert.
Foi como uma fonte no deserto para mim.
«Μικρέ, θέλω να σε ακούσω να γελάς πάλι…» Μα εκείνος μου είπε: «Απόψε θα συμπληρωθεί ένας χρόνος.
||||||laughing||||||||will be completed||
"Baby, I want to hear you laugh again..." But he said to me: "Tonight will be one year.
"Rapaz, quero ouvir-te rir outra vez...", mas ele disse-me: "Esta noite faz um ano.
Το αστέρι μου θα βρίσκεται ακριβώς πάνω απ' το μέρος όπου προσγειώθηκα πέρυσι».
||||||||||||last year
My star will be right over where I landed last year."
A minha estrela estará mesmo por cima do sítio onde aterrei no ano passado".
«Μικρέ, πες μου πως δεν είναι παρά ένα κακό όνειρο αυτή η ιστορία με το φίδι, το ραντεβού και το αστέρι…» Αλλά δεν απάντησε στην ερώτησή μου.
"Little one, tell me this story with the snake, the date and the star is just a bad dream." But he did not answer my question.
"Rapaz, diz-me que essa história da cobra, da tâmara e da estrela não passa de um sonho mau...", mas não respondeu à minha pergunta.
Μου είπε: «Αυτό που είναι σημαντικό, δεν φαίνεται…» «Φυσικά…» «Είναι όπως με το λουλούδι.
He said to me: "What is important, it is not seen..." "Of course..." "It is like the flower.
Ele disse: "O que é importante, tu não vês..." "Claro..." "É como uma flor.
Αν αγαπάς ένα λουλούδι που βρίσκεται σ' ένα αστέρι, είναι όμορφο τη νύχτα να κοιτάς τον ουρανό.
If you love a flower that is in a star, it is beautiful at night to look at the sky.
Se amas uma flor que está numa estrela, é bonito à noite olhar para o céu.

"What you gave me to drink was like music thanks to the manganese and the rope σαι remember… it was good".
O que me deste a beber era como música graças à manga e à corda... lembra-te... era bom".
«Φυσικά…» «Θα βλέπεις τη νύχτα τα αστέρια.
"Of course..." "You will see the stars at night.
"Claro..." "Verás as estrelas à noite.
Το δικό μου είναι πολύ μικρό για να σου δείξω πού βρίσκεται.
Mine is too small to show you where it is.
O meu é demasiado pequeno para vos mostrar onde está.
Είναι καλύτερα έτσι.
It's better that way.
É melhor assim.
Το αστέρι μου θα είναι για σένα ένα απ' όλα τα αστέρια.
My star will be for you one of all the stars.
79 Έτσι, θα σου αρέσει να τα κοιτάζεις όλα… Θα γίνουν όλα φίλοι σου… Κι ύστερα θα σου κάνω κι ένα δώρο…» Γέλασε πάλι.
|||||||||||||||||||||laughed|
79 That way, you'll love looking at them all... They'll all become your friends... And then I'll give you a present too...” He laughed again.
79 Então, vais gostar de olhar para tudo... Vão todos tornar-se teus amigos... E depois dou-te um presente..." riu-se de novo.
«Α!
μικρέ, μικρέ, μου αρέσει να ακούω αυτό το γέλιο!» «Αυτό ακριβώς θα είναι το δώρο μου… θα είναι όπως και με το νερό…» «Τι θέλεις να πεις;» «Οι άνθρωποι έχουν αστέρια που δεν είναι τα ίδια.
little, little, I like to hear that laugh! " "This will be exactly my gift… it will be like water…" "What do you mean?" "People have stars that are not the same.
rapazinho, rapazinho, adoro ouvir esse riso!" "É exatamente isso que o meu presente vai ser... vai ser como a água..." "Como assim?" "As pessoas têm estrelas que não são iguais.

Γι' άλλους που είναι σοφοί, είναι προβλήματα.

«Τι θέλεις να πεις;» «Όταν θα κοιτάζεις τον ουρανό, τη νύχτα, αφού θα κατοικώ σ' ένα από αυτά, αφού θα γελώ σ' ένα από αυτά, θα είναι τότε για σένα σαν να γελάνε όλα τα αστέρια.
"What do you want to say;" "When you look at the sky at night, after I will live in one of them, after I will laugh in one of them, then it will be for you as if all the stars are laughing.
"Quando olhares para o céu à noite, depois de eu habitar numa delas, depois de eu me rir numa delas, será então para ti como se todas as estrelas se rissem.
Εσύ θα έχεις αστέρια που θα ξέρουν να γελούν!» Και γέλασε πάλι.
You will have stars who know how to laugh!" And laughed again.
Terás estrelas que sabem rir!" e riu-se de novo.
«Και όταν θα παρηγορηθείς (πάντα παρηγορείται κανείς), θα είσαι ευχαριστημένος που με έχεις γνωρίσει.

«Θα είναι σαν να σου έχω δώσει, αντί γι' αστέρια, ένα σωρό κουδουνάκια που ξέρουν να γελούν…» Και γέλασε για ακόμη μια φορά.

"It will be as if I have given you, instead of stars, a bunch of bells that know how to laugh…" And he laughed once more.
"Será como se eu vos tivesse dado, em vez de estrelas, um monte de sinos que sabem rir..." e riu-se mais uma vez.
Έπειτα σοβάρεψε πάλι: «Απόψε, ξέρεις, μην έρθεις».

But something reassured him: "It is true that they have no poison left for a second bite…" That night I did not see him start.

Το έσκασε αθόρυβα.

When I managed to catch up with him, he was walking decisively, with a quick step.

Mas fez mais uma tentativa: "Vai ser bonito, sabes?

"Let me take a step alone."
Deixa-me dar um passo sozinho".
Και κάθισε γιατί φοβόταν.
And he sat down because he was afraid.
E sentou-se porque tinha medo.
Είπε ακόμα: «Ξέρεις… το λουλούδι μου… είμαι υπεύθυνος γι' αυτό!
