Sándor Petőfi:

MY MOTHER’S HEN

Eh, what’s this! Mother hen,

Are you living here in this room?

My, God certainly is good to you,

He has elevated you oh so high!

Here she runs, back and forth,

She even flies up onto the chest,

When she thinks of it, she cackles,

And still they do not throw her out of the room.

But no, they don’t throw hir out,

They feed her like a pigeon,

She picks about in the hemp seed,

Even a prince doesn’t live better.

Now then, mother hen,

At least behave yourself properly,

Work hard, let it not happen

That my mother finds a shortage of eggs.

Our dog Crumb, sharpen your ears,

Now let me talk to you,

You are an old servant around the house,

You have always served so weU.

Be good from now on too, Crumb,

Do not take a liking to hen meat,

Live as a friend with the hen . . .

My mother’s single livestock.

Vác, 1848, February
