| translated by Hans Eiseneck | translated by Max Knight | translated by Alexander Gross | ||||
| Un hechicero, con esposa | One night, a banshee slunk away | A Werewolf, troubled by his name, | Ein Werwolf eines Nachts entwich | |||
| vino un día a la fosa | from mate and child, and in the gloom | Left wife and brood one night and came | von Weib und Kind und sich begab | |||
| de su maestro, y al profesor | went to a village teacher’s tomb, | To a hidden graveyard to enlist | an eines Dorfschullehrers Grab | |||
| pidió: “¿Me cuentas? ¡Por favor!” | requesting him: “Inflect me, pray.” | The aid of a long-dead philologist. | und bat ihn: „Bitte, beuge mich!“ | |||
| El profesor sin vacilar | The village teacher climbed up straight | “Oh sage, wake up, please don’t berate me,” | Der Dorfschulmeister stieg hinauf | |||
| subió y comenzó a hablar. | upon his grave stone with its plate | He howled sadly, “Just conjugate me.” | auf seines Blechschilds Messingknauf | |||
| Desde allá de su letrero | and to the apparition said | The seer arose a bit unsteady | und sprach zum Wolf, der seine Pfoten | |||
| se dirigió al hechicero: | who meekly knelt before the dead: | Yawned twice, wheezed once, and then was ready. | geduldig kreuzte vor dem Toten: | |||
| “El hechiuno” le explica, | “The banSHEE, in the subject’s place; | “Well, ‘Werewolf’ is your plural past, | „Der Werwolf“ – sprach der gute Mann, | |||
| “el hechidos” después indica, | the banHERS, the possessive case. | While ‘Waswolf’ is singularly cast: | „des Werwolfs, Genitiv sodann, | |||
| “el hechitres” dice al fin, | The banHER, next, is what they call | There’s ‘Amwolf’ too, the present tense, | dem Werwolf, Dativ, wie man’s nennt, | |||
| “con eso basta ¡chiquitín!” | objective case--and that is all.” | And ‘Iswolf,’ ‘Arewolf’ in this same sense.” | den Werwolf, - damit hat’s ein End!“ | |||
| El hechicero, conmovido | The banshee marveled at the cases | “I know that--I’m no mental cripple-- | Dem Werwolf schmeichelten die Fälle | |||
| por lo que capta su oído, | and writhed with pleasure, making faces, | The future form and participle | er rollte seine Augenbälle. | |||
| al maestro ruega, encantado, | but said: “You did not add, so far, | Are what I crave,” the beast replied. | „Indessen“, bat er, „füge doch | |||
| que le adjunte un quebrado. | the plural to the singular!” | The scholar paused--again he tried: | zur Einzahl auch die Mehrzahl noch!“ | |||
| Pero el profesor confiesa | The teacher, though, admitted then | “A ‘Will-be-wolf?’ It’s just too long: | Der Dorfschullehrer aber musste | |||
| que nada sabe con certeza: | that this was not within his ken. | ‘Shall-be-wolf?’ ‘Has-been-wolf?’ Utterly wrong! | gestehn, dass er von ihr nichts wusste. | |||
| “Hay muchos hechos. Hechiceros | “While bans are frequent”, he advised, | Such words are wounds beyond all suture-- | Zwar Wölfe gab’s in großer Schar, | |||
| únicamente hay enteros.” | “A she cannot be plurized.” | I’m sorry, but you have no future.” | doch „Wer“ gab’s nur im Sinular. | |||
| El brujo se volvió muy triste: | The banshee, rising clammily, | The Werewolf knew better--his sons still slept | Der Wolf erhob sich tränenblind – | |||
| “Mi cara mitad, ¿no la viste?” | wailed: “What about my family?” | At home, and homewards now he crept, | er hatte ja doch Weib und Kind! | |||
| Ya que no era sabio | Then, being not a learned creature, | Happy, humble, without apology | Doch da er keine Gelehrter eben, | |||
| con gratitud se despidió. | said humbly “Thanks” and left the teacher. | For such folly of philology. | so schied er dankend und ergeben. | |||
