And whenever they catch you

They will kill you

But first, they must catch you”

the grass is all overpainted originally, but once it goes through the kiln, the black hides any underglaze on top of it, and only the carved lines remain green

rambling about underglazes under the cut

The quick translation really is essentially “Eat shit you stinking leader,” but let’s break it down.

“Silflay” is a rabbit term for a specific kind of eating - it’s when you go outside the burrow to graze. It’s a social event, a meal with the rest of the warren.

“Hraka” means “excrement” but it seems to contextually mean, specifically, “final excrement.” Rabbit digestion requires them to poop once and then eat that poop to get the rest of their nutrients out of it, a different means of solving the problem of digesting grass than a ruminant’s four-chambered stomach. This is what “chewing pellets” refers to in the text, by the way. So the first poop is just pellets and should be eaten, but the second poop is hraka and should be left alone.

“Embleer” is loosely translated as “stinking,” but it’s specifically the scent of a fox, one of rabbitkind’s great enemies.

And finally “Rah” is an honourific suffix indicating the warren’s Chief Rabbit.

So! A possible alternate translation might be:
