Oscar Wilde

The happy prince's eyes were full of tears, and the tears ran down his golden cheeks. The prince's face is beautiful in the moonlight, and the swallow feels sorry for it.

"Who are you?" He asked each other.

"I am the Happy Prince."

"Then why are you crying?" The swallow asked again, "You got me wet."

"Before, when I was alive with a heart," the statue began, "I didn't know what tears were, because at that time I lived in a carefree palace, which was a place where sadness could not enter. People play with me in the garden during the day, and I lead the dance in the hall at night. There is a high fence along the garden, but I never thought there was anything on the other side of the fence. Everything around me is so beautiful. My servant calls me the Happy Prince. Indeed, if happiness is happiness, I am really happy. I live like this and die like this. Now that I'm dead, they let me stand in such a high place that I can see all the ugliness and poverty in my city. Although my heart is made of lead, I still can't help crying. "

"ah! Isn't he a golden statue with a heart of stone? " The swallow said to himself.

"In the distance," the statue continued in a low and sweet voice, "there lived a poor family in a small street in the distance. A window is open, through which I can see a woman sitting at the table. Her thin face is full of tiredness, and her rough and red hands are full of needle holes, because she is a tailor. She is embroidering the satin dress with passion fruit, which is the dress that the queen's favorite maid-in-waiting will wear at the next palace dance. On the bed in the corner of the room lies her sick child. The child is running a fever and clamoring for oranges. His mother gave him nothing but a few mouthfuls of river water, and the child kept crying. Swallow, swallow, swallow, can you take the ruby off my hilt and give it to her? My feet are fixed on this base and can't move. "

"My friends are waiting for me in Egypt," said the swallow. "They are flying around the Nile, talking to the big lotus, and will soon spend the night in the grave of the big Pharaoh."

"Swallow, swallow, swallow", the prince said again, "Will you be my messenger? The child is so hungry that his mother is very sad. "

"I don't like children," replied the swallow. "Last summer, I went to a river. The miller's son has two naughty children. They always throw stones at me. Of course, they will never try to hit me, how fast we swallows fly. Besides, I come from a family famous for its speed. But in any case, this is impolite behavior. "

But the sad face of the happy prince made the swallow feel bad. "It's too cold here," he said, "but I'd like to be your messenger."

"Thank you, Little Swallow," said the prince.

So the swallow took the huge ruby from the prince's sword, put it in his mouth, crossed the roof of the city and flew far away.

He flew over the river and saw countless lanterns hanging high on the mast. He flew over the ghetto and saw the old Jews bargaining with each other and weighing coins on the copper scale. Finally, he came to the poor man's house and looked inside. The feverish child tossed and turned in bed, and the mother soon fell asleep because she was so tired. He jumped into the room and put the huge ruby on the woman's table. Then it flew gently around the bed and fanned the child's forehead with its feathered wings. "I think it's cool," said the child. "I will be fine." Say that finish, I fell into a sweet dream.

Then the swallow went back to the happy prince and told him what he had done. "Do you feel strange?" He went on to say. "Although it is very cold, I feel so warm now."
