Now, who was standing guard saw the king's daughter to go by.
She was the most beautiful girl,
and he fell instantly in love.
But what is a simple soldier next to the daughter of a king?
At last he succeeded in meeting her,
and he told her that he no longer could live without her.
The princess was so taken by his love
that she said to the soldier:
"If you can wait for 100 days and 100 nights
under my balcony at the end of it..
I shall be yours"
With that the soldier went and waited
one day, two days, then ten, then twenty.
Each evening the princess looked out,
and he never moved.
In rain, wind and snow. He was still there!
Birds sat on his head, bees stung him.
But he didn't move.
However, On the ninety day he had come pale and weak.
Tears streamed from his eyes,
he couldn't hold them back.
He didn't even have the strength to sleep.
And all that time, the princess watched him.
Finally, on the 99th night, the soldier stood up, took his chair
and left.
