A long time ago, in a village at the edge of a forest, there lived a girl named Mira.
For lenge siden, i en landsby ved skogkanten, bodde det en jente som het Mira.
Mira was not tall and she was not strong, but she was very kind.
Mira var ikke høy og ikke sterk, men hun var veldig snill.
Every evening, her grandmother gave her a small lantern.
Hver kveld ga bestemoren henne en liten lykt.
The lantern had a warm yellow light.
Lykten hadde et varmt gult lys.
Mira carried it to the edge of the village and hung it on an old wooden post.
Mira bar den til utkanten av landsbyen og hang den på en gammel trestolpe.
Why do we do this every night?
Hvorfor gjør vi dette hver kveld?
Mira asked.
spurte Mira.
Her grandmother smiled.
Bestemoren hennes smilte.
