Die Katze [English translation]

You have found it and now it's your turn

To take care of it

Who knows maybe it will purr because of that

It comes and goes

Whenever it wants to

It lolls between your sheets

Smooth flannel

It plays with its prey

Never goes with the crowd, it does not simply obey

It counts your mice and kills them quietly and thoroughly

No, it will never belong to you

But you like to pet it

And it knows that for sure

Meow

It claws into your cushions and sits enthroned arrogantly

It eats you out of house and home

But never eats from your hand

If you want to catch, it snarls

Don't touch me

If you really have no time for it

It sneaks up

It falls down on its paws

It does not play acording to not, it bristles

You can't lead it and not tame it either

It does not obey
