| Ein Werwolf eines Nachts entwich | Jen lupfantom’ de famili’ | One night, a banshee slunk away | A Werewolf, troubled by his name, | |||
| von Weib und Kind und sich begab | meznokte iam kuris for | from mate and child, and in the gloom | Left wife and brood one night and came | |||
| an eines Dorfschullehrers Grab | al tombo de la profesor’. | went to a village teacher’s tomb, | To a hidden graveyard to enlist | |||
| und bat ihn: „Bitte, beuge mich!“ | kaj petis pri konjugaci’. | requesting him: “Inflect me, pray.” | The aid of a long-dead philologist. | |||
| Der Dorfschulmeister stieg hinauf | Do diktis tiu dokta ul’ | The village teacher climbed up straight | “Oh sage, wake up, please don’t berate me,” | |||
| auf seines Blechschilds Messingknauf | starante sur la kructabul’ | upon his grave stone with its plate | He howled sadly, “Just conjugate me.” | |||
| und sprach zum Wolf, der seine Pfoten | dum lup’ senmova kiel splinto | and to the apparition said | The seer arose a bit unsteady | |||
| geduldig kreuzte vor dem Toten: | atentis vortojn de l’ mortinto. | who meekly knelt before the dead: | Yawned twice, wheezed once, and then was ready. | |||
| „Der Werwolf“ – sprach der gute Mann, | De “lupfantomo”, simpla rekta, | “The banSHEE, in the subject’s place; | “Well, ‘Werewolf’ is your plural past, | |||
| „des Werwolfs, Genitiv sodann, | tra “lupfintomo”, plej perfekta, | the banHERS, the possessive case. | While ‘Waswolf’ is singularly cast: | |||
| dem Werwolf, Dativ, wie man’s nennt, | plu “lupfontomo”, iom rara, | The banHER, next, is what they call | There’s ‘Amwolf’ too, the present tense, | |||
| den Werwolf, - damit hat’s ein End!“ | ĝis “lupfuntomo”, ho, koŝmara. | objective case--and that is all.” | And ‘Iswolf,’ ‘Arewolf’ in this same sense.” | |||
| Dem Werwolf schmeichelten die Fälle | Ĉi participoj plaĉis multe | The banshee marveled at the cases | “I know that--I’m no mental cripple-- | |||
| er rollte seine Augenbälle. | al la fantomo, kaj rezulte | and writhed with pleasure, making faces, | The future form and participle | |||
| „Indessen“, bat er, „füge doch | ĝi petis: “Legu plu el PIV-o | but said: “You did not add, so far, | Are what I crave,” the beast replied. | |||
| zur Einzahl auch die Mehrzahl noch!“ | pri participoj en pasivo.” | the plural to the singular!” | The scholar paused--again he tried: | |||
| Der Dorfschullehrer aber musste | La viro ĉagreniĝis tamen: | The teacher, though, admitted then | “A ‘Will-be-wolf?’ It’s just too long: | |||
| gestehn, dass er von ihr nichts wusste. | “Jam fermis mi per fin’ kaj amen, | that this was not within his ken. | ‘Shall-be-wolf?’ ‘Has-been-wolf?’ Utterly wrong! | |||
| Zwar Wölfe gab’s in großer Schar, | ĉar netransiraj bestoj feblas | “While bans are frequent”, he advised, | Such words are wounds beyond all suture-- | |||
| doch „Wer“ gab’s nur im Sinular. | kaj la pasiv’ neniam eblas.” | “A she cannot be plurized.” | I’m sorry, but you have no future.” | |||
| Der Wolf erhob sich tränenblind – | Sed lupfantomo pri transiro | The banshee, rising clammily, | The Werewolf knew better--his sons still slept | |||
| er hatte ja doch Weib und Kind! | ja spertas pli ol eĉ vampiro. | wailed: “What about my family?” | At home, and homewards now he crept, | |||
| Doch da er keine Gelehrter eben, | La lup’ revenis larmokula | Then, being not a learned creature, | Happy, humble, without apology | |||
| so schied er dankend und ergeben. | al sia famili’ ulula. | said humbly “Thanks” and left the teacher. | For such folly of philology. | |||
