1
00:00:12,734 --> 00:00:16,343
The tiny man introduced himself.

2
00:00:16,344 --> 00:00:17,919
"I am Prince Fada.

3
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,908
This is the kingdom of the flower fairies."

4
00:00:21,909 --> 00:00:26,803
He began to whistle.

5
00:00:26,804 --> 00:00:30,636
All the other flowers started to open up.

6
00:00:30,637 --> 00:00:35,396
Each flower had a tiny person like Thumbelina inside.

7
00:00:35,397 --> 00:00:38,593
Everyone smiled at her.

8
00:00:38,594 --> 00:00:43,819
"This might be where I belong," she whispered to herself.

9
00:00:43,820 --> 00:00:50,338
Thumbelina was surprised and happy to see people like her.

10
00:00:50,339 --> 00:00:53,849
"My name is Thumbelina," she said.

11
00:00:53,850 --> 00:00:56,401
"Do you live in the flowers?"

12
00:00:56,402 --> 00:01:02,373
"Yes, each flower is home to one of us," laughed the prince.

13
00:01:02,374 --> 00:01:04,802
"But where is your home?"

14
00:01:04,803 --> 00:01:09,227
"I don't really know, Prince Fada," said Thumbelina.

15
00:01:09,228 --> 00:01:16,027
"I just know what I enjoy doing, like looking at the stars."

16
00:01:16,028 --> 00:01:21,233
"We sit in our flowers and watch the night sky," said the prince.

17
00:01:21,234 --> 00:01:24,611
"Then we all sing together."

18
00:01:24,612 --> 00:01:31,024
"Really?" asked Thumbelina, remembering Mrs. Marigold's windowsill.

19
00:01:31,025 --> 00:01:35,045
"What kind of flower do you sleep in?" asked the prince.

20
00:01:35,046 --> 00:01:42,341
"My bed was a walnut shell with a blanket of tulip petals," Thumbelina replied.

21
00:01:42,342 --> 00:01:48,301
"Yes, tulips are our people's favorite flower," said Prince Fada.

22
00:01:48,302 --> 00:01:52,254
Thumbelina was very excited.

23
00:01:52,255 --> 00:01:56,097
"Please tell me how you found us," said the prince.

24
00:01:56,098 --> 00:02:01,748
So Thumbelina told him everything that had happened.

25
00:02:01,749 --> 00:02:06,769
"Yes, our people love adventures too," agreed the prince.

26
00:02:06,770 --> 00:02:12,325
"But singing kept me strong and happy," said Thumbelina.

27
00:02:12,326 --> 00:02:15,946
Prince Fada's eyes shone.

28
00:02:15,947 --> 00:02:20,030
"Yes, we all have lovely voices and love to sing."

29
00:02:20,031 --> 00:02:26,114
"I found that I could learn bird songs easily," said Thumbelina.

30
00:02:26,115 --> 00:02:30,697
"We are great friends with birds," said Prince Fada.

31
00:02:30,698 --> 00:02:36,970
Then, after a moment, he said, "I believe you are one of us.

32
00:02:36,971 --> 00:02:38,286
You look like us.

33
00:02:38,287 --> 00:02:40,692
You sound like us."

34
00:02:40,693 --> 00:02:45,956
"But there is one thing that is different," Thumbelina said.

35
00:02:45,957 --> 00:02:48,498
"I don't have wings."

36
00:02:48,499 --> 00:02:53,199
Prince Fada smiled. "Yes, you do."

37
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,514
He whistled a happy tune.

38
00:02:58,515 --> 00:03:02,252
Another fairy brought a pair of wings.

39
00:03:02,253 --> 00:03:05,462
She put them on Thumbelina.

40
00:03:05,463 --> 00:03:12,091
"They're beautiful!" Thumbelina said excitedly.

41
00:03:12,092 --> 00:03:14,991
She could not believe it.

42
00:03:14,992 --> 00:03:18,638
She smiled shyly at the prince.

43
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,230
"And they fit perfectly," he said.

44
00:03:22,231 --> 00:03:26,191
Thumbelina turned to look at her wings.

45
00:03:26,192 --> 00:03:32,592
"Now I can go wherever I want!" she said joyfully.

46
00:03:32,593 --> 00:03:35,220
The prince frowned.

47
00:03:35,221 --> 00:03:38,779
"But don't you want to stay here with me?

48
00:03:38,780 --> 00:03:41,082
You can become my princess.

49
00:03:41,083 --> 00:03:43,885
We can live happily together."

50
00:03:43,886 --> 00:03:46,612
Thumbelina looked at him.

51
00:03:46,613 --> 00:03:51,542
Then she looked up at the sky.

52
00:03:51,543 --> 00:03:56,457
"Before, I didn't know where I belonged," she said.

53
00:03:56,458 --> 00:04:02,039
"Now, I know. But I want to see Mrs. Marigold again.

54
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,281
After that, I want to see the world!

55
00:04:06,282 --> 00:04:09,606
Then I will happily return home.

56
00:04:09,607 --> 00:04:11,149
Don't worry, prince.

57
00:04:11,150 --> 00:04:13,642
I promise to come back."

58
00:04:13,643 --> 00:04:19,457
Thumbelina shook her wings and flew toward the sky.

59
00:04:19,458 --> 00:04:23,192
Her adventure as Thumbelina was over.

60
00:04:23,193 --> 00:04:32,352
But her life as a fairy was just about to begin.

61
00:04:32,353 --> 00:05:24,315
