CHAPTER TWO

1      U KOJOJ PU IDE U POSETU I ZAPADA U ŠKRIPAC

1       In which Pooh goes Visiting and gets into a Tight Place

2      Eduard Medved, koga su njegovi prijatelji zvali Vini zvani Pu, ili sasvim kratko Pu, šetao se jednog dana Šumom

2       EDWARD BEAR, known to his friends as Winnie-the-Pooh, or Pooh for short, was walking through the forest one day,

3  i ponosno pevušio.

3       humming proudly to himself.

4  Tog jutra dok je pred ogledalom izvodio gimnastičke vežbe za održavanje linije, složio je jednu malu pesmu bez reči.

4       He had made up a little hum that very morning, as he was doing his Stoutness Exercises in front of the glass:

5  Tra-la-la, tra-la-la, pevušio je pružajući šape iznad glave što više,

5       Tra-la-la, tra-la-la, as he stretched up as high as he could go,

6  a zatim tra-la-la, tra-la – joj u pomoć! – la, pokušavajući da dohvati prste zadnjih šapa.

6       and then Tra-la-la, tra-la – oh, help! – la, as he tried to reach his toes.

7  Posle doručka neprestano je ponavljao tu pevušicu

7       After breakfast he had said it over and over to himself

8  dok je nije naučio napamet,

8       until he had learnt it off by heart,

9  pa ju je, šetajući se, pevušio do kraja, bez zapinjanja.

9       and now he was humming it right through, properly.

10  Evo te pevušice:

10      It went like this:

11           Trala-la, tra-la-la,
               tra-la-la, tra-la-la,
               Rum-tum-tidl-um-tum.
               tidl-idl, tidl-idl,rum-tum-tum-tidl-um.

11      Tra-la-la, tra-la-la,
          Tra-la-la, tra-la-la,
          Rum-tum-tiddle-um-tum...

12      E, pevušio je tu pevušicu i veselo koračao,

12      Well, he was humming this hum to himself, and walking along gaily,

13  razmišljajući šta li rade svi ostali

13      wondering what everybody else was doing,

14  i kako bi se osećao da je neko drugi.

14      and what it felt like, being somebody else,

15  Odjednom se zaustavio pred peščanim obronkom

15      when suddenly he came to a sandy bank,

16  sa nekom velikom rupom.

16      and in the bank was a large hole.

17      – Aha! – uzviknuo je Pu. (Rum-tum-tidl-um-tum.)

17      "Aha !" said Pooh. (Rum-tum-tiddle-um-tum.)

18  – Ako ja išta znam o ičemu, ta rupa znači Zekhop, – rekao je

18      "If I know anything about anything, that hole means Rabbit," he said,

19  a Zekhop znači društvo, – nastavio je

19      "and Rabbit means Company," he said,

20  – a društvo, to znači jelo i neko ko će da sluša kako pevušim i tome slično.

20      "and Company means Food and Listening-to-Me-Humming and such like.

21  Rum-tum-tum-tidl-um.

21      Rum-tum-tum-tiddle-um.

22      Sagnuo se, gurnuo glavu u otvor rupe i viknuo:

22      So he bent down, put his head into the hole, and called out:

23      – Ima li koga?

23      "Is anybody at home?"

24      Iz rupe se čulo užurbano komešanje, pa se sve opet utišalo.

24      There was a sudden scuffling noise from inside the hole, and then silence.

25      – Pitao sam: „Ima li koga?” – viknuo je Pu.

25      "What I said was, 'Is anybody at home?'" called out Pooh very loudly.

26      – Nema! – odgovorio je neki glas iz rupe, pa dodao:

26      "No!" said a voice; and then added,

27  – Nije potrebno da tako vičeš.

27      "You needn't shout so loud.

28  Čuo sam te sasvim dobro prvi put.

28      I heard you quite well the first time."

29      – Koješta! – uzviknuo je Pu. – Zar tu nema baš nikoga?

29      "Bother!" said Pooh. "Isn't there anybody here at all?"

30      – Nema.

30      "Nobody."

31      Vini zvani Pu izvukao je glavu iz otvora i malo se zamislio. Razmišljao je u sebi:

31      Winnie-the-Pooh took his head out of the hole, and thought for a little, and he thought to himself,

32      „Neko ipak mora da je tamo, jer neko mora da je rekao: Nema.”

32      "There must be somebody there, because somebody must have said 'Nobody.'"

33      Zato je opet zavukao glavu u otvor i rekao:

33      So he put his head back in the hole, and said:
