| The Monk and his Cat |
|---|
| Pangur, white Pangur |
| How happy we are |
| Alone together, Scholar and cat |
| Each has his own work to do daily; |
| For you it is hunting, for me, study |
| Your shining eye watches the wall; |
| My feeble eye is fixed on a book |
| You rejoice when your claws entrap a mouse; |
| I rejoice when my mind fathoms a problem |
| Pleased with his own art |
| Neither hinders the other; |
| Thus we live ever |
| Without tedium and envy |
| Pangur, white Pangur |
| How happy we are |
| Alone togethr, Scholar and cat |
