     En el lago en la mañana
     Sus lágrimas caían
     Y su imagen destruía

Usage notes

• Feminine nouns beginning with stressed /ˈa/ like hada take the singular definite article el (otherwise reserved for masculine nouns) instead of the usual la: el hada. This includes the contracted forms al and del (instead of a la and de la, respectively): al hada, del hada.

These nouns also usually take the indefinite article un that is otherwise used with masculine nouns (although the standard feminine form una is also permitted): un hada or una hada. The same is true with determiners algún/alguna and ningún/ninguna, as well as for numerals ending with 1 (e.g., veintiún/veintiuna).

However, if another word intervenes between the article and the noun, the usual feminine singular articles and determiners (la, una etc.) must be used: la mejor hada, una buena hada.

• If an adjective follows the noun, it must agree with the noun's gender regardless of the article used: el hada única, un(a) hada buena.
• In the plural, the usual feminine singular articles and determiners (las, unas etc.) are always used.
