East of the Sun and West of the Moon: Old Tales from the North — Page 15
But she, too, didn't know the way a bit better than the other two.
하지만 그녀 역시 다른 두 사람보다 조금도 더 길을 알지 못했습니다.
"East of the sun and west of the moon it was," she knew--that was all.
"해의 동쪽, 달의 서쪽에 있다"는 것은 알고 있었습니다—그것이 전부였습니다.
"And thither you'll come, late or never; but I'll lend you my horse, and then I think you'd best ride to the East Wind and ask him; maybe he knows those parts, and can blow you thither.
"그곳에는 늦게야 도착하거나 아예 못 갈 수도 있습니다. 하지만 제 말을 빌려드릴 테니, 동풍에게 찾아가 물어보는 것이 좋을 것 같습니다. 어쩌면 그가 그 지역을 알고 있어서 그곳까지 불어다 줄 수도 있습니다.
But when you get to him, you need only give the horse a switch under the left ear, and he'll trot home of himself."
그에게 도착하면, 말의 왼쪽 귀 아래를 한 번 살짝 치기만 하면, 말이 혼자서 집으로 돌아갈 것입니다."
And so, too, she gave her the gold spinning-wheel. "Maybe you'll find a use for it," said the old hag.
그러고는 그녀에게 금 물레도 주었습니다. "언젠가 쓸 데가 있을 거예요"라고 늙은 마녀가 말했습니다.
Then on she rode many many days, a weary time, before she got to the East Wind's house, but at last she did reach it, and then she asked the East Wind if he could tell her the way to the Prince who dwelt east of the sun and west of the moon.
그런 다음 그녀는 동풍의 집에 도착하기까지 수많은 날 동안 지치도록 말을 타고 달렸으며, 마침내 그곳에 도착하여 동풍에게 해의 동쪽과 달의 서쪽에 사는 왕자에게 가는 길을 알려줄 수 있는지 물었습니다.
Yes, the East Wind had often heard tell of it, the Prince and the castle, but he couldn't tell the way, for he had never blown so far.
동풍은 왕자와 그 성에 대해 자주 들어본 적은 있었지만, 그곳까지 불어간 적이 없었기 때문에 길을 알려줄 수 없었습니다.
"But, if you will, I'll go with you to my brother the West Wind, maybe he knows, for he's much stronger.
"하지만 괜찮으시다면, 제 형제인 서풍에게 함께 가보겠습니다. 서풍이 훨씬 더 강하니 어쩌면 알고 있을지도 모릅니다.
So, if you will just get on my back, I'll carry you thither."
그러니 제 등에 올라타시기만 하면, 그곳까지 데려다드리겠습니다."
Yes, she got on his back, and I should just think they went briskly along.
그녀는 그의 등에 올라탔고, 그들은 정말 빠르게 달려갔습니다.
