Arrorró, mi niño. Arrorró, mi sol.

Arrorró, pedazo de mi corazón.

Este niño lindo ya quiere dormir;

háganle la cuna de rosa y jazmín.

Arrorró, mi niño. Arrorró, mi sol.

Duérmase, pedazo de mi corazón.

Hush, my child. Hush, my sunshine.

Hush, piece of my heart.

This beautiful child already wants to sleep;

make him a cradle of rose and jasmine.

Hush, my child. Hush, my sunshine.

Fall asleep, piece of my heart.

Those were the words he’d been struggling to remember!

La Reina Gigante gently laid Max back on the sofa and lowered her head, revealing a nest within her crown. There, in a hollow bordered by sticks and grass, the peregrine slept. La Reina softly kissed Max’s forehead before standing to her full height again and swaying back toward the cliff.

“Don’t leave!” called Max, scrambling after her. Through the storm’s wreckage, he ran down the path to the fork and uphill, waving his arms. Breathless, he yelled, “Come back!”

His feet hammered the earth up the switchbacks, but just when he thought he’d reached the grove of coral trees, he found himself at the bottom of the hill again. “Please stay,” he cried.

But La Reina Gigante moored herself back onto the cliff—once again a tower, proud and unyielding.

Even so, Max ran and ran and ran.
