Christian Morgenstern, |
| übersetzt von Alexander Gross |
| A Werewolf, troubled by his name, |
| Left wife and brood one night and came |
| To a hidden graveyard to enlist |
| The aid of a long-dead philologist. |
| “Oh sage, wake up, please don’t berate me,” |
| He howled sadly, “Just conjugate me.” |
| The seer arose a bit unsteady |
| Yawned twice, wheezed once, and then was ready. |
| “Well, ‘Werewolf’ is your plural past, |
| While ‘Waswolf’ is singularly cast: |
| There’s ‘Amwolf’ too, the present tense, |
| And ‘Iswolf,’ ‘Arewolf’ in this same sense.” |
| “I know that--I’m no mental cripple-- |
| The future form and participle |
| Are what I crave,” the beast replied. |
| The scholar paused--again he tried: |
| “A ‘Will-be-wolf?’ It’s just too long: |
| ‘Shall-be-wolf?’ ‘Has-been-wolf?’ Utterly wrong! |
| Such words are wounds beyond all suture-- |
| I’m sorry, but you have no future.” |
| The Werewolf knew better--his sons still slept |
| At home, and homewards now he crept, |
| Happy, humble, without apology |
| For such folly of philology. |
