The Metamorphosis / Förvandlingen

The light of the electric tram lay pale here and there on the ceiling and on the higher parts of the furniture

Ljuset fr n den elektriska sp rvagnen l g blekt h r och var i taket och p de h gre delarna av m blerna

but down at Gregor's level it was dark

men nere p Gregors niv var det m rkt

He slowly pushed himself towards the door to see what had happened there

Han tr ngde sig sakta mot d rren f r att se vad som hade h nt d r

he was still clumsy with his feelers, which he only now learned to appreciate

han var fortfarande klumpig med k nseln, som han f rst nu l rde sig uppskatta

His left side seemed to have one long, unpleasantly tight scar

Hans v nstra sida verkade ha ett l ngt, obehagligt t tt rr

and he had to literally limp on his two rows of legs

och han var tvungen att bokstavligen halta p sina tv rader ben

Incidentally, one of the legs had been seriously injured during the morning's incidents

Ett av benen hade f r vrigt skadats allvarligt under morgonens tillbud

it was almost a miracle that only one of his legs was injured

det var n stan ett mirakel att bara ett av hans ben skadades

and he dragged his leg lifelessly

och han sl pade sitt ben livl st

Only when he reached the door did he realize what had actually lured him there

F rst n r han kom fram till d rren ins g han vad som faktiskt hade lockat dit honom

it was the smell of something edible that had lured him there

det var lukten av n got tbart som hade lockat dit honom
