Gritó la zanahoria, como si fuera la gran cosa, lo más importante de la historia, entonces yo me acerco, intrigada por el echo, pero lo que encuentro, es una botella de buen peso, que lleva escrito "corona" en su pecho.
I found a crown!, shouted the carrot, as if it was the big thing, the most important thing in the story, then I approach, intrigued by the fact, but what I find, is a bottle of good weight, which has "crown" written on its chest.
Hablo con la zanahoria, le digo que esa corona no lleva piedras preciosas, que no tiene buena forma y su peso no le haría bien a su cabezota. Le explico que es una botella, de vidrio y de gran belleza, sin embargo la zanahoria, insiste en que encontró una corona.
I talk to the carrot, I tell him that this crown has no precious stones, that it is not a good shape and its weight would not be good for his big head. I explain that it is a bottle, made of glass and of great beauty, however the carrot insists that it has found a crown.
La zanahoria no quiere entender, que una corona así, no se verá bien, así que me marchó del lugar a mi casa a descansar. La zanahoria permanece con su corona y bajo ella se posa, cada quien puede creer lo que quiera y hay que respetar las opiniones diversas, aunque no nos parezca.
The carrot does not want to understand that such a crown will not look good, so I leave the place and go home to rest. The carrot remains with its crown and under it rests, everyone can believe what he wants and we must respect different opinions, even if we do not like it.
