The Cave of Miracles - La gruta de los milagros
The cave was so vast
that a bear entered it to hibernate
and lost his way.
An eagle flew into the cave to search for him.
As it flew close to the ceiling,
it discovered a series of cave paintings hidden behind stalagmites near the entrance.
They were strange geometric figures,
formed by dots and curved lines.
Most astonishing of all,
they depicted the intricate labyrinth that lay within the cave.
Amazed by the discovery,
the eagle flew out of the cave
to report it to the World Society of Animals,
whose members were waiting nearby.
The rhinoceros,
President of the Society,
proposed using the ancient map
to find the bear
and investigate the mysterious paintings.
But there was no need.
The bear emerged from the cave,
safe and sound.
Once he had recovered from the fright,
he explained
that sounds,
whose intensity varied continuously,
had guided him to the exit.
From that day on,
the World Society of Animals
named the cave
"The Cave of Miracles."
La gruta era tan inmensa
que un oso entró en ella para hibernar
y se perdió.
Un águila se adentró en la cueva para buscarlo.
Mientras volaba cerca del techo,
descubrió unas pinturas rupestres ocultas tras unas estalagmitas próximas a la entrada.
Eran extrañas figuras geométricas,
formadas por puntos y líneas curvas.
Lo más sorprendente
era que representaban los intrincados laberintos de la gruta.
Asombrada por aquel hallazgo,
el águila regresó al exterior
para comunicarlo a la Sociedad Mundial de Animales,
cuyos miembros aguardaban cerca de allí.
El rinoceronte,
presidente de la Sociedad,
propuso utilizar aquel antiguo mapa
para encontrar al oso
e investigar aquellas misteriosas pinturas.
Pero no hizo falta.
El oso salió de la gruta
sano y salvo.
Cuando se hubo recuperado del susto,
explicó
que unos sonidos,
cuya intensidad cambiaba continuamente,
lo habían guiado hasta la salida.
Desde aquel día,
la Sociedad Mundial de Animales
la bautizó como
«La gruta de los milagros».
Beautifully described. Good work! here
