“Al llegar al templo, el niño del pitito camina de puntitas para no perturbar a su madre que reza piadosamente. Al verlo llegar, su madre lo acaricia tiernamente invitándole a rezar. Después de unos segundos y con mucho cuidado, el niño saca un pitito hecho de carrizo y empieza a tocar una alegre melodía. La madre oye la melodía y sonriéndole cariñosamente le quita el pitito. Después de un breve tiempo, el niño saca otro pitito de la bolsa trasera del pantalón y empieza a tocar otra alegre melodía. La madre nuevamente y con mucha ternura lo acaricia y le quita el pitito. Y así sucesivamente pasa la madre rezando y el niño del pitito pitando. Al terminar sus rezos, salen del templo. La madre le regresa todos los pititos y así, la madre cantando y el niño del pitito pitando, regresan a casa”.
The story of the whistle boy
When the little whistle boy arrives at the temple, he tiptoes through the church, being careful not to disturb his mother, who is piously praying. When his mother sees him arrive, she caresses him tenderly, and invites him to pray. After a few seconds, he very carefully retrieves a whistle made of reed and starts to play a sweet melody. His mother hears the melody, smiles affectionately and him and takes away his whistle. Shortly thereafter, the little whistle boy retrieves another whistle from his back pocket and begins to play another sweet melody. His mother, once again caresses him tenderly, and takes away the whistle. And so it continues, the mother prays and the boy plays his whistles. When she finishes her prayers, they exit the temple, and she returns all his whistles. And off the go, the mom singing and the little whistle boy playing as they make their way home.
