Beowulf: An Anglo-Saxon Epic Poem — Page 8
_When the hero arrives in his own land, Higelac treats him as a distinguished guest. He is the hero of the hour._
영웅이 자신의 땅에 도착했을 때, 히겔라크는 그를 귀한 손님으로 대접한다. 그는 그 시대의 영웅이다.
_Beowulf subsequently becomes king of his own people, the Geats.
베오울프는 그 후 자신의 백성인 게아트족의 왕이 된다.
After he has been ruling for fifty years, his own neighborhood is wofully harried by a fire-spewing dragon.
그가 오십 년간 통치한 후, 그의 고장은 불을 내뿜는 용에 의해 처참하게 유린된다.
Beowulf determines to kill him.
베오울프는 그를 죽이기로 결심한다.
In the ensuing struggle both Beowulf and the dragon are slain.
이어지는 싸움에서 베오울프와 용은 모두 죽임을 당한다.
The grief of the Geats is inexpressible.
게아트족의 슬픔은 이루 말할 수 없다.
They determine, however, to leave nothing undone to honor the memory of their lord.
그러나 그들은 자신들의 군주를 기리기 위해 모든 것을 다하기로 결심한다.
A great funeral-pyre is built, and his body is burnt.
거대한 화장용 장작더미가 세워지고, 그의 시신은 불태워진다.
Then a memorial-barrow is made, visible from a great distance, that sailors afar may be constantly reminded of the prowess of the national hero of Geatland._
그런 다음 멀리서도 보이는 기념 고분이 만들어져, 먼 곳의 뱃사람들이 게아트랜드의 민족 영웅의 용맹을 끊임없이 떠올릴 수 있도록 한다.
_The poem closes with a glowing tribute to his bravery, his gentleness, his goodness of heart, and his generosity._
시는 그의 용감함, 온화함, 선한 마음씨, 그리고 관대함에 대한 찬사로 막을 내린다.
It is the devout desire of this translator to hasten the day when the story of Beowulf shall be as familiar to English-speaking peoples as that of the Iliad.
베오울프의 이야기가 일리아드만큼 영어권 사람들에게 친숙해지는 날을 앞당기는 것이 이 번역자의 간절한 소망이다.
Beowulf is our first great epic.
베오울프는 우리의 최초의 위대한 서사시이다.
It is an epitomized history of the life of the Teutonic races.
그것은 튜턴 민족의 삶을 압축한 역사이다.
It brings vividly before us our forefathers of pre-Alfredian eras, in their love of war, of sea, and of adventure.
그것은 알프레드 대왕 이전 시대 우리 선조들의 전쟁, 바다, 그리고 모험에 대한 사랑을 생생하게 우리 앞에 보여준다.
