The Stepsister

灰姑娘，你知道吗？舞会上有一个很漂亮的女孩！

Huī gūniang, nǐ zhīdào ma? Wǔhuì shang yǒu yí gè hěn piàoliang de nǚhái!

Cinderella, guess what! There was a beautiful girl at the ball!

Cinderella

是吗？她是谁？

Shì ma? Tā shì shéi?

Really? Who was she?

The Stepsister

没有人知道！十二点的时候，她跑了，只留下一只玻璃鞋。

Méiyǒu rén zhīdào! Shí'èr diǎn de shíhou, tā pǎo le, zhǐ liú xià yì zhī bōlixié.

Nobody knows! At twelve o'clock she ran off, and all she left behind was one glass slipper.

Narrator

几天以后，王子带着那只玻璃鞋，一家一家地找。

Jǐ tiān yǐhòu, wángzǐ dàizhe nà zhī bōlixié, yì jiā yì jiā de zhǎo.

A few days later, the prince went from house to house with the glass slipper.

The Prince

你们好。谁能穿上这只玻璃鞋，我就和谁结婚。

Nǐmen hǎo. Shéi néng chuān shàng zhè zhī bōlixié, wǒ jiù hé shéi jiéhūn.

Good day to you. I will marry whoever can wear this glass slipper.

The Stepsister

我来！我来！……啊，太小了！

Wǒ lái! Wǒ lái! … À, tài xiǎo le!

Me first! Me first! … Oh, it's too small!

The Stepsister

再试试……不行，我的脚进不去！

Zài shìshi… bù xíng, wǒ de jiǎo jìn bu qù!

Let me try again… No, my foot won't go in!

Cinderella

王子，我可以试试吗？

Wángzǐ, wǒ kěyǐ shìshi ma?

Your Highness, may I try?

The Stepsister

你？你是灰姑娘啊！

Nǐ? Nǐ shì Huī gūniang a!

You? You're just Cinderella!

The Prince

谁都可以试。请坐。

Shéi dōu kěyǐ shì. Qǐng zuò.

Everyone may try. Please, sit down.

Narrator

王子给她穿上玻璃鞋。不大也不小，正好！

Wángzǐ gěi tā chuān shàng bōlixié. Bú dà yě bù xiǎo, zhènghǎo!

The prince slipped the glass slipper onto her foot. Not too big, not too small. A perfect fit!

The Stepsister

这……这不可能！

Zhè… zhè bù kěnéng!

That… that's impossible!

Cinderella

你们看，我这里还有一只。

Nǐmen kàn, wǒ zhèlǐ hái yǒu yì zhī.

Look, I have the other one right here.

The Prince

是你！那天晚上的女孩，是你！

Shì nǐ! Nà tiān wǎnshang de nǚhái, shì nǐ!

It's you! The girl from that night was you!

Narrator

这时，仙女来了。灰姑娘的衣服，又变成了金色的。

Zhèshí, xiānnǚ lái le. Huī gūniang de yīfu, yòu biànchéng le jīnsè de.

Just then, the fairy godmother appeared, and Cinderella's dress turned to gold once more.

The Stepsister

灰姑娘……对不起！以前，我们对你太不好了。

Huī gūniang… duìbuqǐ! Yǐqián, wǒmen duì nǐ tài bù hǎo le.

Cinderella… I'm so sorry! We treated you so badly.

Cinderella

姐姐，快起来。我不生你们的气。

Jiějie, kuài qǐlái. Wǒ bù shēng nǐmen de qì.

Get up, sister. I'm not angry with any of you.

The Prince

你愿意和我结婚吗？

Nǐ yuànyì hé wǒ jiéhūn ma?

Will you marry me?

Cinderella

我愿意。

Wǒ yuànyì.

I will.

Narrator

灰姑娘和王子结婚了。她也给姐姐在王宫里找了一个家。

Huī gūniang hé wángzǐ jiéhūn le. Tā yě gěi jiějie zài wánggōng lǐ zhǎo le yí gè jiā.

Cinderella married the prince, and she gave her stepsister a home in the palace too.

Cinderella

妈妈，您看见了吗？我现在很好。

Māma, nín kànjiàn le ma? Wǒ xiànzài hěn hǎo.

Mother, do you see? Now I really am all right.
