可憐なる姫君と忠実なる騎士
おお、我が可憐なる姫君ドゥルシネーアよ!
このドン・キホーテ・デ・ラ・マンチャ、
大冒険と共に御身の可憐にして高潔なるお姿を、
世に知らしめましたとも!
え、一緒に旅をした可愛いメイドさんについて、
何か一言でございますか。
はて……私の友のサンチョ・パンサは太鼓腹の男で、
可愛いメイドなど……サンチョについて聞きたいと?
サンチョこそは我が最高の友、我が最高の従者!
私の苦難に苦難を極めた栄光の旅は、彼なしでは
色褪せたものになるでしょう!
え、もっと言ってもっと言って?
では我らの大冒険。そのエピソードを一つ―――
ええ、ええ。
私も、とても楽しかった。
あなたとの旅は、冒険は、かけがえのなき
美しいものだったのです。
The Pretty Princess and the Faithful Knight
Ahh, Dulcinea! My beautiful, perfect princess! I, Don Quixote de la Mancha, have just returned from a grand adventure on which I told the whole world about your delicate beauty and incredible nobility!
Huh? You have something you wish to say about the cute maid I traveled with? Um, my lady, with all due respect, I think you may be mistaken. My friend Sancho Panza is a paunchy, middle-aged man, not a cute maid... What's that? Sancho is who you wish to ask about?
Why, Sancho is my dearest friend, and the best attendant a knight could ask for! If it hadn't been for him, my glorious, perilous journey would have faded into obscurity long ago!
Huh? You want me to tell you more? Very well then, allow me to regale you with one of the many stories from our grand adventure...
Ahh, that was delightful. It's true; the adventure I shared with you was beautiful. I will never forget it.
