you pick out the white hairs / please bother yourself to pick them out
Explanation:
çevirinin kaynak metnini de buldum internette:
A man, whose hair was two-coloured, came in a great hurry to a well respected hairdresser. He said, "Pick the white hairs out of my beard. I have chosen a new bride, young man.''The hairdresser cut off his beard and put all of it in front of him. He said, "You pick out the white hairs, because I have important business."

şu şekilde de olabilir:
bother yourself to pick them out
would you please bother yourself to pick them out
bother yourself to pick the white hairs out
would you please bother yourself to pick the white hairs out

bother terimini "bi zahmet sen ayırıver" anlamında kullanabiliriz..
please kullanmasak da aynı anlamı verebilir..

kindly comb them out yourself


Explanation:
Bildiğim kadarıyla yapıvermek, edivermek İngilizce'de karşılığı olmayan bir kalıp olduğu için, düşünebildiğim en olası çeviri bu oldu. 'Kindly' yerine hem nazik olan hem de yapılacak işin aslında önemsiz olduğunu ima eden, daha uygun bir kelime de kullanılabilir.

you sort them out


Explanation:
Buradaki "sen ayır"a eklenen "-ver" iki iş görüyor: 1) "Ben yapmam, *sen kendin* yap" diyor; 2) "bunu yapmak zor bir iş değil" mesajını veriyor. İngilizcede bunun bir karşılığı yok, ama bazı durumlarda Almancadaki "einfach" gibi düşünülebilir. Buradaki "ayırmak" eylemini de (ağarmış saçları diğerlerinden ayırmak) "sort" fiilinin en iyi karşılayacağı kanısındayım.
