"Afuera los árboles arrastraban sus hojas como redes a través de las profundidades del aire; el sonido del agua estaba en la habitación y a través de las olas llegaban las voces de los niños entrando a la casa."
Simplified meaning
Imagine you are indoors on a windy day and you can see the trees outside swaying heavily. They are moving so much that their leaves look like they are dragging through the air. This creates a rustling sound similar to a fishing net being pulled through water. Now, picture hearing the gentle sound of a nearby stream or a fountain; it feels like the sound is inside the room with you. Meanwhile, you hear happy children’s voices as they come into the house. They bring a lively, joyful energy with them. This scene helps to convey how the forces and sounds of nature, combined with the innocence and liveliness of children, create a special atmosphere that blends the outside world with the home environment in a peaceful and harmonious way.
