Метод Франка - Milne. Winnie-the-Pooh

(So now let's give him three hearty whitches?) (поэтому сейчас давайте скажем ему три искренних чего?)

And hope he'll be with us for years and years (и надеюсь, он будет с нами годы и годы = много лет ),

And grow in health and wisdom and riches (и возрастет здоровьем и мудростью и богатством)!

3 Cheers for Pooh (трехкратное Ура за Пуха)!

(For who?) (за кого?)

For Pooh— (за Пуха)

3 Cheers for Bear (3 Ура за Мишку)

(For where?) (за кого?)

For Bear— (за Мишку)

3 Cheers for the wonderful Winnie-the-Pooh (3 Ура за замечательного Винни-Пуха)!

( Just tell me, somebody —WHAT DID HE DO?) (только скажите мне, кто-нибудь — ЧТО СДЕЛАЛ ОН?)

Три Ура за Пуха

(За Кого?)

Скажи мне громче в ухо.

За Пуха.

(А что за причина банкета?)

Я думал, ты знаешь это.

Он друга спас от воды!

Трижды грянем Ура!

(Для чего фейерверк и вспышки?)

Ради Храброго Славного Мишки.

Он плавать не умел, но враз

Он Пятачка от смерти спас!

(Кого он спас?)

Узнаешь, щас!

Но слушай!

Коль у тебя есть уши.

Я расскажу тебе о Пухе!

(О Ком?)

О Пухе!

(Прости, проблема в слухе,

И память хочет подвести).

Ну, начинаю речь вести.

Пух Мишкой был

Огромного Ума.

(Еще услышать раз приятно мне весьма!)

Громадного Ума!

(Еще хоть раз ты повтори.

Ну, ладно, дальше говори.)

Он много ел,

Но я забыл, он плавать ли умел.

Однако удалось ему поплыть

На судне особого рода.

(На чем?)

Ну, на горшке от меда.

Итак, Ура Три раза от души.

(Опять не понял я, кого души?)

Надеемся, что будет с нами он

И возрастет здоровьем и умом!

За Пуха Три Ура!

(Да что такое! Мы за кого кричим, не ведая покоя?)

Да за Медведя!

Я уж говорил.

Ура кричи за Пуха, что есть сил.

(Ну, скажет мне хоть кто-то — ПОЧЕМУ?)

And the dream began to sing itself over in his head until it became a sort of song. It was an

ANXIOUS POOH SONG.

3 Cheers for Pooh

(For Who?)

For Pooh—

(Why what did he do?)

I thought you knew;

He saved his friend from a wetting!

3 Cheers for Bear!

(For where?)

For Bear—

He couldn't swim,

But he rescued him!

(He rescued who?)

Oh, listen, do!

I am talking of Pooh?

(Of who?)

Of Pooh!

(I'm sorry I keep forgetting).

Well. Pooh was a Bear of Enormous Brain—

(Just say it again!)

Of enormous brain—

(Of enormous what?)

Well, he ate a lot,

And I don't know if he could swim or not,

But he managed to float

On a sort of boat

(On a sort of what?)

Well, a sort of pot—

So now let's give him three hearty cheers

(So now let's give him three hearty whitches?)

And hope he'll be with us for years and years,

And grow in health and wisdom and riches!

3 Cheers for Pooh!

(For who?)

For Pooh—

3 Cheers for Bear

(For where?)

For Bear—

3 Cheers for the wonderful Winnie-the-Pooh!

(Just tell me, somebody—WHAT DID HE DO?)

While this was going on inside him (пока это происходило внутри него), Owl was talking to Eeyore (Филин беседовал с Иа).

“Eeyore,” said Owl (Иа, — сказал Филин), “Christopher Robin is giving a party (Кристофер Робин устраивает вечеринку).”

“Very interesting,” said Eeyore (очень интересно, — сказал Иа). “I suppose they will be sending me down the odd bits which got trodden on (я полагаю, /они/ мне пришлют добавочные кусочки, по которым потоптались; to tread — идти, ступать, шагать ). Kind and Thoughtful (Любезно и Чутко). Not at all, don't mention it (не за что, не стоит благодарности: «не упоминайте это»).”

“There is an Invitation for you (есть Приглашение для тебя).”

“What's that like (какое)?”

“An Invitation (Приглашение)!”

“Yes, I heard you (да, я слышал тебя; to hear ). Who dropped it (кто послал его)?”

While this was going on inside him, Owl was talking to Eeyore.

“Eeyore,” said Owl, “Christopher Robin is giving a party.”

“Very interesting,” said Eeyore. “I suppose they will be sending me down the odd bits which got trodden on. Kind and Thoughtful. Not at all, don't mention it.”

“There is an Invitation for you.”

“What's that like?”

“An Invitation!”

“Yes, I heard you. Who dropped it?”

“This isn't anything to eat (это не еда), it's asking you to the party (это приглашение тебя на вечеринку). To-morrow (завтра).”

Eeyore shook his head slowly (Иа медленно покачал /своей/ головой).

“You mean Piglet (ты имеешь в виду Пятачка). The little fellow with the excited ears (парнишку с напряженными ушами; to excite — возбуждать ). That's Piglet (это Пятачок). I'll tell him (я скажу ему).”

“No, no!” said Owl (нет, нет! — сказал Филин), getting quite fussy (становясь очень нервным; fuss — суета, беспокойство из-за пустяков; суматоха, неразбериха ). “It's you (это ты)!”

“Are you sure (ты уверен)?”

“Of course I'm sure (конечно, /я/ уверен). Christopher Robin said 'All of them (Кристофер Робин сказал: всем им)! Tell all of them (скажи всем им).' ”

“All of them, except Eeyore (всем им, кроме Иа)?”

“All of them,” said Owl sulkily (всем им, — сказал Филин угрюмо).

“Ah!” said Eeyore (а! — сказал Иа). “A mistake, no doubt (ошибка, несомненно), but still, I shall come (но, тем не менее, я приду). Only don't blame me if it rains (только не вините меня, если пойдет дождь).”

“This isn't anything to eat, it's asking you to the party. To-morrow.”

Eeyore shook his head slowly.

“You mean Piglet. The little fellow with the excited ears. That's Piglet. I'll tell him.”

“No, no!” said Owl, getting quite fussy. “It's you!”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course I'm sure. Christopher Robin said 'All of them! Tell all of them.' ”

“All of them, except Eeyore?”

“All of them,” said Owl sulkily.

“Ah!” said Eeyore. “A mistake, no doubt, but still, I shall come. Only don't blame me if it rains.”

But it didn't rain (но дождь не пошел). Christopher Robin had made a long table out of some long pieces of wood (Кристофер Робин сделал длинный стол из нескольких длинных деревянных предметов), and they all sat round it (и они уселись вокруг него). Christopher Robin sat at one end (Кристофер Робин сидел на одном конце; to sit ), and Pooh sat at the other (а Пух сидел на другом), and between them on one side were Owl and Eeyore and Piglet (а между ними на одной стороне были = сидели Филин и Иа и Пятачок), and between them on the other side were Rabbit, and Roo and Kanga (а между ними на другой стороне сидели Кролик и Ру и Кенга). And all Rabbit's friends and relations spread themselves about on the grass (а все друзья и родственники Кролика расселись на траве; to spread — развертывать/ся/; раскидывать/ся/ ), and waited hopefully in case anybody spoke to them (и ждали с надеждой на тот случай, если кто-нибудь заговорит с ними), or dropped anything, or asked them the time (или уронит что-то, или спросит у них время).

It was the first party to which Roo had ever been (это была первая вечеринка, на которой когда-либо бывал Ру), and he was very excited (и он был очень возбужден). As soon as ever they had sat down he began to talk (как только они сели, он начал разговаривать; to begin ).

“Hallo, Pooh!” he squeaked (привет, Пух! — пропищал он).

“Hallo, Roo!” said Pooh (привет, Ру! — сказал Пух).

Roo jumped up and down in his seat for a little while (Ру немного попрыгал на своем месте) and then began again (и потом начал снова).

“Hallo, Piglet!” he squeaked (привет, Пятачок! — пропищал он).

Piglet waved a paw at him (Пятачок помахал ему лапой), being too busy to say anything (будучи слишком занят, /чтобы/ что-то сказать).

“Hallo, Eeyore!” said Roo (привет, Иа! — сказал Ру).
