ELES BOOTUR 101

Aiming at the top of hid head
Was falling down very quickly.
Just at that moment
When it was getting its aim
Eles Bootur started and
Inclined his head to the side,
It stuck into the ground.
Not giving a moment to come to himself
It was rising up whistling between his legs,
When Eles Bootur managed to jump aside
On a nine-sagened distance,
Eos Tardar like an arrow
Not touching anything
Flew into the high sky.
Flying back he stood up
Like a frozen iron
In front of Eles Bootur and
Having turned into Eos Tardar,
gazing at him, with bloodshot eyes,
Mocking at him roared with laughter
That burned out trees
Of the southern side of alaas
Broke into pieces,
That dried out trees
Of the northern side of alaas
Cracked loudly.
Yelling out at the top of his voice,
Expressing his joy,
Offending and hurting
Disturbed the Low World.

Eos Tardar

“Hi-hi-hii, ha-ha-haakh!
Ar-Djaaly, Aart-Tatai!
You, Eles Bootur, poor
How do you dare think
To overcome my eighty-eight magics,
To come through my ninety-nine obstacles ?
You’ll not win me
