Squirrel
Пухнату Білочку до себе Лев прийняв, Навіщо й як — того ніхто не знав, Бо не довідались сороки-цокотухи; Вони б усюди брехні рознесли, Зробили б бугая із мухи: «І так, і перетак, ми бачили, були».

Дознався я, що Білочка служила, Нічого не робила; Було їй сказано: нікуди не втікать І панову хандру потроху розважать.

I found out that Squirrel served, did nothing; It was said to her: they will not run away and they will entertain Mr. Khandra bit by bit.
Марудна служба, що й казати; Аж жижки трусяться скакати, А тут сиди, очицями моргай.

It's a tedious service, to say the least; You're shaking to jump, and you sit there, blinking your eyes.

Our age is running away, you can't say: hold on.
І Білочка свого діждала — Старенька і беззуба стала; Пора прийшла — І службу відбула.

And the Squirrel waited for her time - Old and toothless she became; The time came - And she served.
За те чумацький віз оріхів наділили; Хоч слово панове справдили, Аж любо глянути — оріх в оріх,— Цілісінькую б зиму, дякуючи, їсти, Та тільки що ж?

For that, the Chumash cart was given oranges; Though the gentlemen kept their word, It's interesting to see the oranges, one after another, I could eat all winter long, thanks to them, But what?
Дивись на них: Дали тоді, як нічим гризти.

Look at them: They were given to us when we had nothing to gnaw on.
Є приказка весела: їж, Коли роток ще свіж, А то, як прийде час, зов'яне, Тоді ніщо вже не загляне.
