Description

Once upon a time there lived a poor tailor

Dawno, dawno temu żyl sobie biedny krawiec

he had a son called Aladdin

mial syna imieniem Aladyn

Aladdin was a careless, idle boy who would do nothing

Aladyn byl beztroskim, bezczynnym chlopcem, kt ry nic nie robil

although, he did like to play ball all day long

Chociaż lubil grac w pilkę calymi dniami

this he did in the streets with other little idle boys

Robil to na ulicach z innymi malymi, leniwymi chlopcami

This so grieved the father that he died

To tak zasmucilo ojca, że umarl

his mother cried and prayed but nothing helped

Jego matka plakala i modlila się, ale nic nie pomagalo

despite her pleading, Aladdin did not mend his ways

Mimo jej pr śb Aladyn nie zmienil swego postępowania

One day Aladdin was playing in the streets as usual

Pewnego dnia Aladyn jak zwykle bawil się na ulicach

a stranger asked him his age

Nieznajomy zapytal go o wiek

and he asked him if he was not the son of Mustapha the tailor

i zapytal go, czy nie jest synem krawca Mustafy

"I am the son of Mustapha, sir" replied Aladdin

- Jestem synem Mustafy, panie - odparl Aladyn

"but he died a long time ago"

"Ale on umarl dawno temu"

the stranger was a famous African magician

nieznajomy byl slynnym afrykańskim magiem

and he fell on his neck and kissed him

Upadl mu na szyję i pocalowal go

"I am your uncle" said the magician

- Jestem twoim wujem - rzekl czarodziej
