바스코 포파 (조영필 역)
3
내 가난한 선물을 받으오
절름발이 늑대여
내 어깨로 쇠 양을
그리고 내 입에 한 방울의 벌꿀 술을 가져오네
네 턱이 바쁘도록
그리고 내 손에 약간의 생명수
네가 기적을 행하도록
그리고 네 머리에 맞추어 짠
붓꽃 화환
네가 누구인지 되새기도록
그리고 최신 늑대 덫 견본
네가 잘 살피도록
내 선물을 받으오
신성한 꼬리로 그것들을 흩뜨리지 마오
절름발이 늑대여

Accept my poor gifts
Lame wolf
I bring on my shoulders an iron sheep
And a drop of mead in my mouth
To keep your jaws busy
And a little living water in my hand
For you to practise miracles
And a garland of irises
Woven to fit your head
To remind you who you are
And a sample of the very latest wolf-traps
For you to study well
Accept my gifts
Don't scatter them with your godly tail
Lame wolf

Accept my pauper's gifts
Lame wolf
I bring on my back a sheep made of iron
A sip of mead in my mouth
For your jaws to amuse themselves
A bit of holy water in my palm
To practice miracles
A wreath of iris
Plaited to fit your head
So you don't forget who you are
And samples of latest wolf traps
For you to examine carefully
Accept my gifts
Do not scatter them with your divine tail
Lame wolf
