1. КАК МАСТЕРУ ВИШНЕ ПОПАЛСЯ КУСОК ДЕРЕВА, КОТОРЫЙ ПЛАКАЛ И СМЕЯЛСЯ, КАК РЕБЕНОК

CHAPTER 1 How it happened that Mastro Cherry, carpenter, found a piece of wood that wept and laughed like a child

↺

Жил-был…

Centuries ago there lived—

↺

«Король!» — немедленно воскликнут мои маленькие читатели.

“A king!” my little readers will say immediately.

↺

Нет, дети, вы не угадали.

No, children, you are mistaken.

↺

Жил-был кусок дерева.

Once upon a time there was a piece of wood.

↺

То было не какое-нибудь благородное дерево, а самое обыкновенное полено, из тех, которыми в зимнюю пору топят печи и камины, чтобы обогреть комнату.

It was not an expensive piece of wood. Far from it. Just a common block of firewood, one of those thick, solid logs that are put on the fire in winter to make cold rooms cozy and warm.

↺

Не знаю уж, какими путями, но в один прекрасный день этот кусок дерева оказался в мастерской старого столяра.

I do not know how this really happened, yet the fact remains that one fine day this piece of wood found itself in the shop of an old carpenter.

↺

Старика звали мастер Антонио, но весь свет именовал его «мастер Вишня», так как кончик его носа был подобен спелой вишне — вечно блестящий и сизо-красный.

His real name was Mastro Antonio, but everyone called him Mastro Cherry, for the tip of his nose was so round and red and shiny that it looked like a ripe cherry.

↺

Мастер Вишня страшно обрадовался, обнаружив полено, и, весело потирая руки, пробормотал:

As soon as he saw that piece of wood, Mastro Cherry was filled with joy. Rubbing his hands together happily, he mumbled half to himself:

↺

— Этот кусок дерева попался мне довольно кстати.

“This has come in the nick of time.

↺

Смастерю-ка я из него ножку для стола.

I shall use it to make the leg of a table.”

↺

Сказано — сделано. Не мешкая, он взял острый топор, чтобы очистить кору и придать дереву форму ножки.

He grasped the hatchet quickly to peel off the bark and shape the wood.

↺

Но не успел он занести топор, как рука его так и повисла в воздухе — из полена послышался тонкий, умоляющий голосок:

But as he was about to give it the first blow, he stood still with arm uplifted, for he had heard a wee, little voice say in a beseeching tone:

↺

— Не бейте меня!

“Please be careful! Do not hit me so hard!”

↺

Можете себе представить, какое сделалось лицо у доброго старого мастера Вишни.

What a look of surprise shone on Mastro Cherry’s face!
