A picture is worth a thousand words/Solitary

Hidden among the bushes and trying not to make a sound, Tom hears his owners' footsteps and feels frightened when he realizes they are looking for him.

Escondido entre los arbustos y tratando de no hacer ruido, Tom oye los pasos de sus dueños y se asusta al darse cuenta de que lo buscan.

When her mother dies, Tom runs away , doesn't want to return to that place that holds so many memories of the moments lived with her.

Cuando su madre muere, Tom huye; no quiere volver a ese lugar que guarda tantos recuerdos de los momentos vividos con ella.

The footsteps get closer and closer , he starts to tremble. He's so scared that he clenches a flower lying near him between his teeth.

Los pasos se acercan cada vez más y empieza a temblar. Tiene tanto miedo que aprieta entre los dientes una flor que está cerca de él.

He tries not to breathe strong , in fact he succeeds , he hears his owners calling him ....Tom, Tom, where are you, darling, but he doesn't want to return; he has decided to be alone.

Intenta no respirar fuerte, de hecho lo consigue, escucha a sus dueños llamarlo....Tom, Tom, dónde estás, cariño, pero no quiere regresar , ha decidido estar solo.

Tom listens to the receding footsteps, breathes more calmly, stays there until it starts to get dark and then begins to walk, sobbing, remembering his mother.

Tom escucha los pasos que se alejan, respira con más calma, se queda allí hasta que empieza a oscurecer y entonces empieza a caminar, sollozando, recordando a su madre.

Night falls, and he is so tired that he falls asleep... While he sleeps, his mother appears and says to him, " love, you must walk along this path. You will find an elderly woman who is very lonely. You can give her the love she needs. I don't want you to be alone. She is good , look at her face..." The daylight awakens him. He remembers his mother's words and begins to walk looking at the ground. Suddenly, he looks up and sees the face he saw in his dream. A woman is looking at him, and Tom stays still. She takes him home. Now, Tom is the source of happiness for someone else, and that happiness also makes him happy.

Cae la noche y está tan cansado que se queda dormido... Mientras duerme, su madre aparece y le dice: «Amor, debes recorrer este sendero. Encontrarás a una anciana que se siente muy sola. Puedes darle el amor que necesita. No quiero que estés solo. Es buena, mírala a la cara...». La luz del día lo despierta. Recuerda las palabras de su madre y empieza a caminar mirando al suelo. De repente, levanta la vista y ve el rostro que vio en su sueño. Una mujer lo mira, y Tom se queda quieto. Ella lo lleva a casa. Ahora, Tom es la fuente de felicidad para otra persona, y esa felicidad también lo hace feliz a él.
