English to Slovak: The Owl Who Was God
General field: Art/Literary
Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English
Once upon a starless midnight there was an owl who sat on the branch of an oak tree. Two ground moles tried to slip quietly by, unnoticed. "You!" said the owl. "Who?" they quavered, in fear and astonishment, for they could not believe it was possible for anyone to see them in that thick darkness. "You two!" said the owl. The moles hurried away and told the other creatures of the field and forest that the owl was the greatest and wisest of all animals because he could see in the dark and because he could answer any question. "I'll see about that, "said a secretary bird, and he called on the owl one night when it was again very dark. "How many claws am I holding up?" said the secretary bird. "Two," said the owl, and that was right. "Can you give me another expression for 'that is to say' or 'namely'?" asked the secretary bird. "To wit," said the owl. "Why does the lover call on his love?" "To woo," said the owl.
The secretary bird hastened back to the other creatures and reported that the owl indeed was the greatest and wisest animal in the world because he could see in the dark and because he could answer any question. "Can he see in the daytime, too?" asked a red fox? "Yes," answered a dormouse and a French poodle. "Can he see in the daytime, too?" All the other creatures laughed loudly at this silly question, and they set upon the red fox and his friends and drove them out of the region. They sent a messenger to the owl and asked him to be their leader.
When the owl appeared among the animals it was high noon and the sun was shining brightly. He walked very slowly, which gave him an appearance of great dignity, and he peered about him with large, staring eyes, which gave him an air of tremendous importance. "He's God!" screamed a Plymouth rock hen. And the others took up the cry "He's God!" So they followed him wherever he went and when he bumped into things they began to bump into things, too. Finally he came to a concrete highway and he started up the middle of it and all the other creatures followed him. Presently a hawk, who was acting as outrider, observed a truck coming toward them at fifty miles an hour, and he reported to the secretary bird and the secretary bird reported to the owl. "There's danger ahead," said the secretary bird. "To wit?" said the owl. The secretary bird told him. "Aren't you afraid?" he asked. "Who?" said the owl calmly, for he could not see the truck. "He's God!" cried all the creatures again, and they were still crying "He's God" when the truck hit them and ran them down. Some of the animals were merely injured, but most of them, including the owl, were killed.

Moral: You can fool too many of the people too much of the time.

Translation - Slovak
Kde bolo, tam bolo, počas jednej temnej noci sedela na vetve duba sova. Dvaja krtkovia sa okolo nej snažili prekĺznuť ticho, bez povšimnutia. „Uhu!“, povedala sova. „Kto?“ striasli sa, vystrašení a užasnutí, pretože nemohli uveriť, že by bolo možné, aby ich niekto videl v takej hustej tme. „Vy, tu!“, povedala sova. Krtkovia sa ponáhľali preč a povedali ostatným obyvateľom poľa a lesa, že sova je najväčšie a najmúdrejšie zo všetkých zvierat, pretože vidí v tme a vie odpovedať na akúkoľvek otázku. „Ja sa na to pozriem,“ povedal hadožrút nohatý, a raz v noci, keď bola opäť hustá tma, zavolal na sovu. „Čo držím v pazúrikoch?“ spýtal sa hadožrút. „Hubu“, povedala sova, a nemýlila sa. „Môžeš mi podať iné slovo, ktoré má význam 'vedľa mňa' alebo 'v mojej blízkosti'?“ spýtal sa hadožrút. „Tu“, povedala sova. „Čo v ťažkých chvíľach dušu najviac oblaží? Na čo sa má obrátiť?“ „Hudbu“, odpovedala.
Hadožrút sa ponáhľal späť k ostatným obyvateľom a vyhlásil, že sova naozaj je najväčšie a najmúdrejšie zviera na svete, pretože vidí v tme a vie odpovedať na akúkoľvek otázku. „A vidí aj vo dne?“ spýtala sa červená líška. „Áno“, povedali plch a francúzsky pudel, „a vidí aj vo dne?“ Všetci ostatní obyvatelia sa hlasno zasmiali na tejto hlúpej otázke, vrhli sa na líšku a jej priateľov a vyhnali ich za hranice. K sove vyslali posla a požiadali ju, aby sa stala ich vodcom.
Keď prišla medzi zvieratá, bolo pravé poludnie a slnko jasne žiarilo. Kráčala pomaly, to dodalo jej vzhľadu na veľkej dôstojnosti, a rozhliadala sa okolo seba veľkými vytreštenými očami, vďaka čomu okolo nej panovala atmosféra obrovského významu. „Ona je boh!“ zakričala sliepka domáca. Ostatní sa pridali k pokriku „Je to boh!“ A tak ju nasledovali, kamkoľvek šla, a keď narazila do niečoho, začali do toho narážať aj oni. Nakoniec prišla na asfaltovú diaľnicu a začala kráčať rovno v jej strede a všetci ostatní obyvatelia šli za ňou. Vtedy jastrab, ktorý bol poverený funkciou prieskumníka, spozoroval kamión, ktorý sa k nim blížil rýchlosťou takmer sto kilometrov za hodinu, a oznámil to hadožrútovi, a on o tom podal hlásenie sove. „Pred nami je nebezpečenstvo“, povedal. „Tu?“ povedala sova. Hadožrút mu všetko povedal. „Nebojíš sa?“ spýtal sa. „Hm?“ povedala pokojne sova, pretože nevidela kamión. „Ona je boh!“ zakričali znovu všetky bytosti a kričali „Ona je Boh“ ešte aj vtedy, keď do nich narazil kamión a prešiel ich. Niektoré zvieratá sa iba zranili, ale väčšinu z nich, vrátane sovy, kamión zabil.

Morálne ponaučenie: Veľmi často sa dá poblázniť veľmi veľa ľudí.
