Notes

Book and scroll sit on the shelf.
To us they are joy itself.
Oh such tales and lore in prose!
What to pick for my repose?

A translation into Dutch: (BOEK)

Boek en rol lonken hier
op een plank van plezier,
vol verhalen, gedichten:
Waar zal ik voor zwichten?

Book and roll dally here
on a shelf of pleasures,
full of stories, poems:
what shall I give in to?

Ránatar/Maivandion on VL provided a translation into Russian: (КНИГА)

Глянь, на полке что за диво,
Книги, свитки - очень мило,
Хоть учебник, хоть роман;
Отдых мой проходит там.

Look, what a marvel is on the shelf
Books, scrolls - very cute
Whether it be a textbook, or maybe a novel;
my repose does there.
