Alan Alexander Milne - Mi ketten

Az igazi Róbert Gida és Micimackó, 

azaz Christopher Robin és Winnie-the-Pooh

 
Ahol én vagyok, ott van Micimackó,
együtt vagyunk mindenképpen.
Amit én teszek, mindig azt teszi ő,
"Hát ma mit csinálsz:" - kérdezi ő:
"Ejnye, no, az a feltűnő,
nekem is ez a tervem éppen,
csináljuk együtt" - mondja ő.

"Mennyi kétszer hét" - kérdezem.
("Kétszer mi?" - kérdi erre ő.)
"Tizennégy lehet, úgy hiszem."
"Úgy van, épp ennyi" - mondja ő.
"Elég nehéz és fejtörő
feladat volt, no de hiszen
jól megoldottam" - mondja ő.

"Vadásszunk sárkányt" - mondom én.
"Vadásszunk" - mondja ő.
"Van a patak túlsó felén." -
"Igen, sárkányok" - mondja ő.
"Látszik már a csőrük hegyén,
hogy sárkányok" - ezt mondja ő.

"Nem mások" - mondja ő.
"Ijesszünk rájuk" - mondom én.
Ő szól: "Nagyon helyes."
"Én nem félek" - szólok - "no, vén
buta sárkányok, hess!"
Mind elrepült. "Tudd meg, hogy én
nem féltem" - mondja ő -,
"csak fogd a kezem és vezess,
a többit üsse kő."

Ahol én vagyok, ott van MIcimackó,
együtt vagyunk én meg ő.
"Mi lenne énvelem nélküled?" - kérdezem.
"Biz igaz" - mondja ő -,
"Egyedül senki sem mulat, de fő,
hogy ketten vagyunk" - mondja ő.
"Hát ez az" - mondja ő.

Alan Alexander Milne - Us Two

Wherever I am, there's always Pooh,
There's always Pooh and Me.
Whatever I do, he wants to do,
"Where are you going today?" says Pooh:
"Well, that's very odd 'cos I was too.
Let's go together," says Pooh, says he.
"Let's go together," says Pooh.

"What's twice eleven?" I said to Pooh.
("Twice what?" said Pooh to Me.)
"I think it ought to be twenty-two."
"Just what I think myself," said Pooh.
"It wasn't an easy sum to do,
But that's what it is," said Pooh, said he.
"That's what it is," said Pooh.

"Let's look for dragons," I said to Pooh.
"Yes, let's," said Pooh to Me.
We crossed the river and found a few-
"Yes, those are dragons all right," said Pooh.
"As soon as I saw their beaks I knew.
That's what they are," said Pooh, said he.
"That's what they are," said Pooh.

"Let's frighten the dragons," I said to Pooh.
"That's right," said Pooh to Me.
"I'm not afraid," I said to Pooh,
And I held his paw and I shouted "Shoo!
Silly old dragons!"- and off they flew.

"I wasn't afraid," said Pooh, said he,
"I'm never afraid with you."

So wherever I am, there's always Pooh,
There's always Pooh and Me.
"What would I do?" I said to Pooh,
"If it wasn't for you," and Pooh said: "True,
It isn't much fun for One, but Two,
Can stick together, says Pooh, says he. "That's how it is," says Pooh.
