Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 61
At the back, large palm-trees were growing; and the sunlight made the leaves--look quite glossy; and beneath them what a profusion of luxuriant green, and of flowers red like flame, yellow as amber, or white as new-fallen snow!
뒤쪽에는 커다란 야자나무들이 자라고 있었고, 햇빛은 잎사귀들을 매우 윤기 있게 보이게 했으며, 그 아래에는 얼마나 풍성한 무성한 초록빛과, 불꽃처럼 붉고, 호박색처럼 노랗고, 갓 내린 눈처럼 하얀 꽃들이 넘쳐나던지!
"What a wonderful quantity of plants," cried the beetle; "how good they will taste when they are decayed!
"정말 놀라운 양의 식물들이구나," 딱정벌레가 외쳤다. "썩으면 얼마나 맛이 좋을까!
This is a capital store-room.
이곳은 훌륭한 저장실이야.
There must certainly be some relations of mine living here; I will just see if I can find any one with whom I can associate.
분명히 여기에 나의 친척들이 살고 있을 거야. 어울릴 수 있는 누군가를 찾을 수 있는지 한번 봐야겠어.
I'm proud, certainly; but I'm also proud of being so."
나는 분명히 자존심이 강하지만, 그런 내 자신이 자랑스럽기도 해."
Then he prowled about in the earth, and thought what a pleasant dream that was about the dying horse, and the golden shoes he had inherited.
그런 다음 그는 흙 속을 돌아다니며, 죽어가는 말과 자신이 물려받은 황금 신발에 대한 꿈이 얼마나 즐거운 것이었는지를 생각했다.
Suddenly a hand seized the beetle, and squeezed him, and turned him round and round.
갑자기 한 손이 딱정벌레를 붙잡아 꽉 쥐고는 빙글빙글 돌렸다.
The gardener's little son and his playfellow had come into the hothouse, and, seeing the beetle, wanted to have some fun with him.
정원사의 어린 아들과 그의 놀이 친구가 온실 안으로 들어왔고, 딱정벌레를 보고는 그와 함께 장난을 치고 싶어했다.
First, he was wrapped, in a vine-leaf, and put into a warm trousers' pocket.
먼저, 그는 포도 잎에 싸여 따뜻한 바지 주머니 속에 넣어졌다.
He twisted and turned about with all his might, but he got a good squeeze from the boy's hand, as a hint for him to keep quiet.
그는 온 힘을 다해 몸을 비틀고 뒤집었지만, 조용히 하라는 신호로 소년의 손에 세게 쥐어졌다.
Then the boy went quickly towards a lake that lay at the end of the garden.
그런 다음 소년은 정원 끝에 있는 호수를 향해 빠르게 걸어갔다.
