Английский язык с А. А. Милном. Винни-Пух. Часть 2

"Don't mind Eeyore," whispered Rabbit to Pooh. "I told him all about it this morning."

Everybody said "How-do-you-do" to Eeyore, and Eeyore said that he didn't, not to notice, and then they sat down; and as soon as they were all sitting down, Rabbit stood up again.

"We all know why we're here (мы все знаем, зачем мы здесь)," he said (сказал он), "but I have asked my friend Eeyore (но я попросил моего друга Иа) — "

"That's Me (это Я)," said Eeyore (сказал Иа). "Grand (восхитительно)."

"I have asked him to Propose a Rissolution (я попросил его Предложить Резалюцию)." And he sat down again (и он снова сел). "Now then, Eeyore (ну же, Иа)," he said (сказал он).

"We all know why we're here," he said, "but I have asked my friend Eeyore — "

"That's Me," said Eeyore. "Grand."

"I have asked him to Propose a Rissolution." And he sat down again. "Now then, Eeyore," he said.

"Don't Bustle me (не Торопи меня)," said Eeyore, getting up slowly (сказал Иа, медленно поднимаясь). "Don't now-then me (не нукай мне)." He took a piece of paper from behind his ear (он вытащил кусок бумаги из-за уха), and unfolded it (и развернул его). "Nobody knows anything about this (никто ничего об этом /не/ знает)," he went on (продолжал он). "This is a Surprise (это Сюрприз)." He coughed in an important way (он важно прокашлялся), and began again (и снова начал): "What-nots and Etceteras (всякая всячина и так далее), before I begin (прежде чем я начну), or perhaps I should say (или, возможно, я бы сказал), before I end (прежде чем закончу), I have a piece of Poetry to read to you (у меня есть Стихотворение, которое я вам прочту = я прочту вам Стихотворение). Hitherto (до сих пор = доселе) — hitherto (доселе) — a long word meaning (длинное слово, означающее) — well, you'll see what it means directly (ну, вы сейчас поймете, что оно обозначает) — hitherto, as I was saying (доселе, как я говорил), all the Poetry in the Forest has been written by Pooh (вся Поэзия в Лесу писалась Пухом), a Bear with a Pleasing Manner (Медведем с Приятными Манерами) but a Positively Startling Lack of Brain (но с Воистину Потрясающей Нехваткой Ума). The Poem which I am now about to read to you (Стих, который я сейчас прочту вам; to be about to V — собираться сделать что-л.) was written by Eeyore (был написан Иа), or Myself, in a Quiet Moment (или Мной, в Спокойный Момент Времени). If somebody will take Roo's bull's eye away from him (если кто-нибудь отберет у Ру его леденец; bull's eye — драже /твердая круглая конфета/), and wake up Owl (и разбудит Филина), we shall all be able to enjoy it (мы сможем насладиться им). I call it — POEM (я называю это — СТИХ)."

"Don't Bustle me," said Eeyore, getting up slowly. "Don't now-then me." He took a piece of paper from behind his ear, and unfolded it. "Nobody knows anything about this," he went on. "This is a Surprise." He coughed in an important way, and began again: "What-nots and Etceteras, before I begin, or perhaps I should say, before I end, I have a piece of Poetry to read to you.

This was it (вот такое оно было):

Christopher Robin is going (Кристофер Робин уходит).

At least I think he is (по крайней мере, я думаю так).

Where (куда)?

Nobody knows (никто /не/ знает).

But he is going (но он уходит) —
