Because it originates in Bengal there’s one more model, probably translated by Sukanta Chowdhury)

If Pumpkin-Puff ought to dance – Beware! Beware! You shouldn’t dare past the stalls advance. You shouldn’t look to fore or aft, or forged your eyes aslant, However grapple shut with suggestions and toes to the Rancid Radish Plant.

If Pumpkin-Puff ought to cry – You merely mustn’t mount the roof to ponder the sky. However stretched upon a pumpkin-frame and muffled in a quilt, sing hymns to Radha-Krishna with a slily solemn lilt.

If Pumpkin-Puff ought to roar – You perch upon a single leg beside the kitchen door; Then whisper Persian verses with an eloquence forlorn, And slink fully supperless to lie upon the garden.

If Pumpkin-Puff ought to run – You scramble up the window body as if you’d heard a gun; Your cheeks and chin anoint with care in talcum blent with tar, And by no means flip your eyes aloft to gaze upon a star.

If Pumpkin-Puff ought to wail – You are meant to don your authorized hats and climb right into a pail. You make a paste of spinach-pulp to plaster around the nape, And warmth a chunk of pumice-stone and provides your nostril a scrape.

Maybe you scorn my warning phrases, or assume they sound demented. If Pumpkin-Puff ought to discover you out, he’ll make you sore repent it. And you then’ll see my prophecies fulfilled in each letter: So do not blame me – it is you who thought you knew your programs higher.
