Robert Service: Include Me Out (English)

 
I grabbed the new Who's Who to see 
                        My name - but it was not. 
Said I: "The form they posted me 
                        I filled and sent - so what?" 

I searched the essies," dour with doubt... 
                        Darn! It was plain as day 
The scurvy knaves had left me out... 
                        Oh was I mad? I'll say. 

Then all at once I sensed the clue; 
                        'Twas simple, you'll allow... 
The book I held was Who WAS Who - 
                        Oh was I glad - and how! 

Service De Robert: M'inclure Dehors (French)

 
J'ai saisi le nouveau qui a qui pour voir mon nom - mais il n'était 
pas. Ledit I: "la forme ils m'ont signalé que j'ai rempli et l'ont 
envoyé - ainsi ce qui?" 

J'ai recherché les essies, "sévère avec le doute... Darn ! Il 
était plat car jour les valets du scorbut m'avaient exclu... Est-ce 
qu'Oh j'étais fou ? Je dirai. 

Alors d'un seul trait j'ai senti l'indice; 'Twas simple, tu 
laisseras... Le livre que je me suis tenu était qui ÉTAIT qui - 
l'OH était I heureux - et comment ! 

Robert Service: Mich Heraus Mit einschließen (German)

 
Ich ergriff das neue, wer wem hat, zum meines Namens zu sehen - aber 
es war nicht. Besagtes I: "die Form gaben sie mich, den ich füllte 
bekannt und sendeten - so was?" 

Ich suchte die essies, "dour mit Zweifel... Gestopftes! Es war 
normal, da Tag die Skorbut Knaves mich ausgelassen hatten... OH- war 
ich wütend? Ich sage. 

Dann in einem Zug fragte ich den Anhaltspunkt ab; ' einfaches Twas, 
gewähren Sie... Das Buch, das ich hielt, war, wer WAR, wer - OH- 
war frohes I - und wie! 

Serviço De Robert: Incluir-me Para fora (Portuguese)

 
Eu agarrei o novo quem tem quem para ver meu nome - mas não era. I 
Dito: "o formulário afixaram-me que eu me enchi e emitiram-no - assim 
que?" 

Eu procurarei os essies, "dour com dúvida... Darn! Era liso porque 
dia os knaves do scurvy me tinham deixado para fora... Oh era eu 
louco? Eu direi. 

Então de uma vez eu detetei o indício; ' Twas simples, você 
reservará... O livro que eu prendi era quem ERA quem - o Oh era I 
contente - e como! 

Servicio De Roberto: Incluirme Hacia fuera (Spanish)

 
Así el nuevo quién tiene quién para ver mi nombre - pero no era. I 
Dicho: "la forma me fijaron que llené y lo enviaron - tan qué?" 

Busqué los essies, "severo con duda... ¡Darn! Era llano pues día 
los bribones del escorbuto me habían dejado hacia fuera... ¿Oh era 
enojado? Diré. 

Entonces de una vez detecté la pista; ' Twas simple, usted 
permitirá... ¡El libro que sostuve era quién ERA quién - el Oh 
era I alegre - y cómo!
