Hello, (everybody)! (lit: I order you to rejoice!)  Today I would like to tell you an Aesop fable!
The name of this story is "The Man and his Two Wives".
Splendid.  Let's begin.
There was once a man fifty years old.

Modern Greek (1453-): 
κελεύω ὑμᾶς χαίρειν! τήμερον βουλοίμην ἂν διέρχεσθαι ὑμῖν μῦθον Αἰσωπικόν!
τὸ ὄνομα τούτου τοῦ μύθου ἐστὶ >.
καλῶς.  ἀρξώμεθα!
ἦν ποτε ἀνὴρ πεντήκοντα ἔτη γεγονώς.

English: 
And this man had two wives: one was many years old, the other not (so much).

Modern Greek (1453-): 
αὐτῷ δὲ δύο ἦσαν γυναῖκες: ἡ μὲν πολλὰ ἔτη γεγονυῖα, ἡ δὲ οὔ.

Modern Greek (1453-): 
ἡ μὲν πρεσβῦτις (= ἡ πολλὰ ἔτη γεγονυῖα) ἐβούλετο τὸν ἄνδρα πρεσβύτερον φαίνεσθαι.
ἡ δὲ νέα ἐβούλετο τὸν ἄνδρα νεώτερον φαίνεσθαι.

English: 
Now the old woman (= the one many years old) kept wanting her husband to appear older.
But the young (wife) kept wanting her husband to appear younger.

Modern Greek (1453-): 
ἡ μὲν οὖν πρεσβῦτις τὰς μελαίνας τρίχας ἀποκείρει, ἡ δὲ νέα τὰς πολιάς.

English: 
Therefore the old woman cuts the black hairs, but the young woman (cuts) the gray (hairs).

Modern Greek (1453-): 
ὁ οὖν ἀνήρ, φαλακρὸς γενόμενος, οὐδετέρᾳ ἤρεσκε.
τὸ τέλος. χάριν ὑμῖν ἔχω μεγάλην.  εἰς αὖθις!

English: 
The man, therefore, having become bald, was pleasing to neither.
The End.  Thank you very much!  See you later!
