Now that the children are sleeping, I have to talk to you. Ahora que los nios estn durmiendo, tengo que hablar contigo. About what? Sobre qu? We don't have enough food to feed the children. Tomorrow morning we will take them into the deep woods and will leave them there. No tenemos suficiente comida para alimentar a los nios.

Next morning, when they went into the forest, their stepmother gave each one of them a piece of bread. A la maana siguiente, cuando ingresaron en el bosque, su madrastra le dio a cada uno un trozo de pan.

IN THE DEEP FOREST / EN LA ESPESURA DEL BOSQUE

STEPMOTHER MADRASTRA Don't eat this bread before lunch, because this is all you are going to eat today. No coman este pan antes del almuerzo porque esto es todo lo que comern en el da de hoy.

HANSEL / GRETEL We won't. HANSEL / GRETEL No lo haremos. NARRATOR While they were walking, Hansel was leaving trail of breadcrumbs in order to find their way back home. And when they reached the deep forest, their stepmother said to them: Mientras caminaban Hansel iba arrojando miguitas de pan para encontrar luego su camino de regreso a la cabaa. Y cuando llegaron a la espesura del bosque su madrastra les dijo: Stay here until we come to pick you up. Qudense aqu hasta que vengamos a buscarlos. Hansel and Gretel did as they were told, but then night came. Hansel y Gretel cumplieron lo que se les haba indicado pero se hizo de noche. Come on Gretel, it's time to find our way home. Vamos Gretel, es hora de encontrar nuestro camino a casa. I'll help you find the breadcrumbs. Te ayudar a encontrar las miguitas de pan. I can't find any! No encuentro ninguna! I knew it! The animals ate them! Now what are we going to do? Lo imaginaba! Las comieron los animales! Qu haremos ahora? We need to find a safe place to stay. Necesitamos encontrar un lugar seguro donde quedarnos. Look! There's a cave over there. Mira! Ms all hay una cueva. Let's go! Vamos! They stayed in the cave for a few days without eating, until they finally decided to go out and find some food to eat. So they walked deeper into the forest when suddenly they saw something in the distance. Permanecieron sin comer unos das en la cueva hasta que al final decidieron salir a buscar algo para comer. As fue que se internaron ms en el bosque hasta que, de pronto, observaron algo a lo lejos. What is that over there? Qu es eso por all? It looks like a little house. Parece una casa pequea. Let's take a closer look. Acerqumonos a ver. And so they approached the little house. Y as fue que se acercaron a la pequea casa.
