Una Adivinanza más fácil

Question

My last enigma proved to be too abstract. Let's try this one. If you're a native speaker, and see it right away, please refrain from answering right away!

No vuela muy alto pero es presumido.

Calza espuelas, mira con ojos feroces.

Soberbio y distante, pésimo marido,

se levanta pronto, grita a dos voces.

Answer 2

No vuela muy alto pero es presumido.

Calza espuelas, mira con ojos feroces.

Soberbio y distante, pésimo marido,

se levanta pronto, grita a dos voces.

He doesn't fly high but he is vain.

His feet have spurs, he sees with fierce eyes.

Arrogant and distant, he is a terrible husband,

he rises early, screams with two voices.

Any one want to correct my translation? Thanks in advance!

It is a good translation. With a bit of work you could make it a bit less literal and a bit more poetic, but it is correct. :-) - Gekkosan, Mar 28, 2010

Answer 3

a peacock....proud (vain) as a peacock, has "eyes", spurs, If you're ever heard them in the morning, you'd wish you had a rooster.

I can see how it might fit the description - but rooster it is. :-) - Gekkosan, Mar 27, 2010
