Source text - Macedonian Извадок од Белото циганче од Видое Подгорец
Циганскиот Крал Пенгла
“Во оние времиња одамнешни, на седмото небо, живеел големиот и семоќен Пенга, бог и крал на сите Цигани – почнуваше белокосиот Циган, со бавен жубор, кој навестуваше чудесни совети што се случуваат само во приказните и со онаа таинствена нишка во гласот што е карактеристична за сите старци, продолжуваше: - Два бели коња ја влечеле неговата златна кочија. Пенга, богат и славен, управувал не само со Циганите, туку и со сите други луѓе кои живееле на Земјата. Бидејќи имал големо богатство, ништо друго не работел, туку ќе ги качел своите многубројни деца во златната кочија и по цел ден ги шетал, надгледувајќи што работат оние долу на Земјата.
Арно ама, возејќи се тaка, еднаш едно тркало од неговата кочија се скршило и Пенга ниту умeел, ниту пак сакал да седне и да го поправи. Бидејќи колата не можела да оди на три тркала, од седмото небо паднала на Земјата. Паднала заедно со Пенга, заедно со сите негови деца. Седнал под едно дрво Пенга чекајќи да дојдат слугите и да го кренат, да го пренесат во дворецот. Чекал Пенгал, чекале така ден, два, три – ама никој не доаѓал. А Сонцето пече ли пече ,па белото лице на Пенга поцрнело, белите лица на децата исто така поцрнеле.
- Ете, деца, оттогаш Циганите се црни и мрзливи, - редеше Мулон. – Каде што ќе седнат лесно не стануваат, с`е додека не дојде некој силум да ги избрка.
И Пенга, кралот цигански и не само цигански, го избркале од тоа место каде што паднал. Дошол некој селанец и без да знае дека тој е богот и кралот Пенга, му се развикал:
- Не гледаш ли, слепецу ниеден, дека ти и твоите деца ми го испогазивте житото? Ајде, дигајте си го парталот и да ве нема од мојата нива!
Пенга му објаснувал на селанецот дека тој не е обичен скитник, туку бог – крал и дека му се случило несреќа со златната кочија и дека паднал од седмото небо, ама на кога ќе му објаснува. Селанецот не сакал ни да го чуе.
- Мене ништо не ме интересира, - протестирал селанецот и поостро му се напрчиле мустаќите со лута закана во секое влакно. – Станувај, кога ти велам, додека не ги сподберам кучињата партал да те направат.
Видел – не видел, циганскиот бог-крал ги подбрал децата пред себе и тргнал да го бара својот дворец. Ама она што си го загубил еднаш, се наоѓа ли лесно! Одел тој по патишта, барал, прашувал, молел – никаде ни дворец, ни седмо небо.
Па така и ние, неговите деца – воздивнува баба-Мулон – акаме по светот и бараме нешто: седмото небо ли, дворецот на нашиот Пенга ли, кој да ти знае!”
Сите ние со отворени усти ја слушаме чудесната приказна на добриот стар Мулон.
- И каде oтишол Пенга потоа? – праша Насиха.
- Пенга на отишол никаде, - одговори баба-Мулон – туку видел дека така не оди, и на своите деца, кои за тоа време веќе пораснале, им рекол:
- Е, деца мои, ние го загубивме кралството и сега сме ништо. Туку, за да се врзува крај со крај, треба да се јаде. А за да се јаде, треба нешто да се работи, оти ништо не паѓа од небото. И затоа еден од вас нека стане ковач. Тој занает не е лош и со него ќе може убаво да се поминува.
Мислејќи дека тој занает е најлесен, децата се испотепале кој од нив да го земе.
- Друг нека стане свирач, - рекол Пенга, богот без небо и кралот без кралство. – На луѓето им е потребна и веселба.
И така на сите свои деца Пенга им дал по еден занает.
Имал две најмали, но најтврдоглави деца. Тие со ништо не се согласувале и од ништо не биле задоволни.
Но на Пенга му паднало жал да ги остави сосем така, па им рекол:
- Мои рожби сте и не сакам да ме проколнувате во животот. Едниот нека ја зема оваа празна торба и нека тргне по светот да пита на тој начин да се прехранува. А другигот....
Тука Пенга се подзамислил. Што да му даде на својот најмaл син кога не останало ама баш ништо?
Биле наседнати близу до некоја гора. Во тој момент од гората излегла рунтава мечка и им се придружила.
Пенга се насмеал, зашто го решил прашањето и за својот најмал син:
- Еве ти тебе другар, синко мој! Поведи ја мечката и тргни по светот. Таа тебе ќе те храни, ти неа!”
Translation - English Excerpt from The white Gypsy by Vidoe Podgorec
Penga the Gypsy King
“In those days of yore, on the seventh heaven, there lived the great and mighty Penga, god and king of all the Gypsies – the white-haired Gypsy was beginning his tale with a slow ripple that foreboded miraculous advices that happen only in stories and with that mysterious voice thread typical of old men, he went on: - Two white horses pulled his golden carriage. Penga, wealthy and famous, commanded not only the Gypsies but all the people living on the Earth. And because he had immense fortune, he rode his many children on the carriage all day long and watched what those people down on the Earth were doing and did nothing else.
Unfortunately, one day while he was riding on his carriage, one of the carriage wheels broke, and Penga neither knew how nor wanted to mend it. Because the carriage couldn’t ride on three wheels, it had fallen from the seventh heaven onto the Earth. It had fallen along with Penga, along with all his children. Penga sat under a tree and waited for the servants to come and carry him to the castle. Penga waited and waited a day, two, three – but nobody came. And the Sun burnt and burnt, thus Penga’s white face turned dark brown, his children’s white faces turned dark brown as well.
- There, kids, ever since then, the Gypsies are dark brown and lazy, - Mulon went on. – Once they sit somewhere, they don’t get up so easily until someone comes and drives them away by force.
Even Penga, the king of the Gypsies and not only the Gypsies, got driven away from the place he had fallen. Some peasant farmer came and without recognizing Penga the god and king, he yelled at him:
- Are you blind, can’t you see that you and your lot stamped my wheat? Go on, take your tatters and be gone from my field!
Penga tried to explain to the peasant farmer that he was no ordinary vagrant, but a god and a king, and that he had suffered an accident with his golden carriage, that he had fallen from the seventh heaven, but in vain. The peasant farmer didn’t want to hear.
- I don’t care, - yelled the peasant farmed and his moustache got sharper, every hair bearing angry threat. – Come on, when I say, or I will unleash the hounds onto you and they will tear you apart.
Having no other choice, the gypsy god-king, took his children with him and began searching for his castle. But, is it hard to find something you have once lost it! He roamed the roads, inquired, and begged – but no sign of both the castle and the seventh heaven.
That is how we, his children – sighed baba-Mulоn* – roam the world and search for something: whether the seventh heaven, whether the castle of our Penga, no one knows what!”
We all listened to good old Mulon’s marvelous story with our mouths open.
- And where did Penga go afterwards? – Nasiha asked.
- Penga didn’t go anywhere, but he saw that he couldn’t go on like that and he said to his children, who were all grown up by then:
- My children, we had lost our kingdom and now we are nothing. Be that as it may, to meet ends meet, one must eat. And if one wants to eat, one needs to work, since nothing falls from the sky. Therefore, one of you shall be smith. It is an honest trade and it earns well.
Believing it the best trade of all, the children fought over which one of them to take it.
Another shall be a musician, Penga said, the god without a heaven and the king without a kingdom. – People need music and festivities.
Thus, Penga gave each child a trade.
His two youngest children were the most stubborn ones. They didn’t agree with anything and weren’t satisfied at all.
Penga felt sorry for them and didn’t want to leave them like that, so he said to them:
You are my seed and I don’t want you to curse me. One of you shall take this empty bag and he shall roam the world and beg for food. The other….
Penga hesitated for awhile. What shall he give to his youngest son when there was nothing else to give?
They were scattered near some wood. In that very moment, a furry bear came out of the wood and joined them.
Penga smiled, he solved the issue of his youngest son:
- Here is your companion, my son! Take this bear and walk the world. She shall provide for you, and you shall provide for her!”
*baba – Turkish word meaning father, elder, godfather
English to Macedonian: Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English Excerpt from Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
1
Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul. Lo-lee-ta: the tip of the tongue taking a trip of three steps down the palate to tap, at three, on the teeth. Lo. Lee. Ta. She was Lo, plain Lo, in the morning, standing four feet ten in one sock. She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms she was always Lolita.
Did she have a precursor? She did, indeed she did. In point of fact, there might have been no Lolita at all had I not loved, one summer, a certain initial girl-child. In a princedom by the sea. Oh when? About as many years before Lolita was born as my age was that summer. You can always count on a murderer for a fancy prose style.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, exhibit number one is what the seraphs, the misinformed, simple, noble-winged seraphs, envied. Look at this tangle of thorns.
Translation - Macedonian Извадок од Лолита од Владимир Набоков
1
Лолита, светлино на животов, огану в бедра. Греву мој, душо моја. Ло-ли-та: врвот на јазикот минува пат од три степени по непцето за на крај во забите да лупне. Ло. Ли. Та. Наутро беше Ло, обична Ло, со еден чорап, исправена, метро и половина. В панталони беше Лола. На училиште беше Доли. На хартија беше Долорес. Ама в моите раце секогаш беше Лолита.
Имаше ли друга пред неа? Имаше, и тоа како имаше. Всушност, можеби Лолита воопшто и не ќе ја имаше ако едно лето не љубев една зародишна девојка-дете. Во едно кнежество крај морето. Кога ли? Пред околу онолку години колку што имав тоа лето пред Лолита да се роди. Убиец секогаш го бива за китнест прозен стил.
Дами и господа поротници, доказ број 1 е она на кое серафимите, лошо-информираните, едноставните, благородно-крилестите серафими му завидуваа. Погледнете го клопчево трња.
