Lest your movements cause you woe,
Lay paper in the pan below.
If you should not, then mark you this -
Prepare to suffer Neptune's kiss.

Can you translate that into Latin? AND keep a rhyme?!

I wrote it for a sign in my bathroom.

@George,

Lest your movements cause you woe,
Ne motus tui doleat te,

Lay paper in the pan below.
In caccabo schedam infra pone.

If you should not, then mark you this -
Nisi facis, hoc ergo nota -

Prepare to suffer Neptune's kiss.
Osculum Neptuni pati para.
