The Owls

These are the mothers of owls,

Who wanted to look for lice,

Their children, their young cabbages.

Keeping them on the knees.

Their eyes are worth gold jewelery.

Their beaks are hard as rocks,

They are soft like toys,

But the owls are on their knees!

Where did your story take place?

Among the Zulus? The Andalusians?

Or in a bamboo hut?

In Moscow? Or Timbuktu?

In Anjou or Poitou?

In Peru or in the Manchurians?

Hou! Hou!

Not at all, it was among the insane!
