They were wild birds," answered the parrot, "and totally uneducated.

"그것들은 야생 새들이었고, 완전히 교육을 받지 못했지요." 앵무새가 대답했습니다.

Now let us be men.

이제 우리 인간답게 행동합시다.

Why do you not laugh?

왜 웃지 않으시나요?

If the lady and her visitors can laugh at this, surely you can.

부인과 손님들이 이것을 보고 웃을 수 있다면, 당신도 분명히 웃을 수 있을 겁니다.

It is a great failing not to be able to appreciate what is amusing.

재미있는 것을 감상할 줄 모르는 것은 큰 결함입니다.

Now let us be men.

이제 우리 인간답게 행동합시다.

"Do you remember," said the canary, "the pretty maidens who used to dance in the tents that were spread out beneath the sweet blossoms?

"기억하시나요?" 카나리아가 말했습니다. "달콤한 꽃들 아래 펼쳐진 천막 안에서 춤추던 그 아름다운 아가씨들을요?"

Do you remember the delicious fruit and the cooling juice from the wild herbs?"

맛있는 과일과 야생 허브에서 나온 시원한 즙을 기억하시나요?"

"Oh, yes," said the parrot; "but here I am much better off.

"오, 그럼요," 앵무새가 말했습니다. "하지만 여기서 저는 훨씬 더 잘 지내고 있답니다.

I am well fed, and treated politely.

저는 잘 먹고, 정중하게 대우받고 있습니다.

I know that I have a clever head; and what more do I want?

저는 제가 영리하다는 것을 알고 있습니다. 그 이상 무엇이 필요하겠습니까?

Let us be men now.

이제 우리 인간답게 행동합시다.

You have a soul for poetry.

당신은 시를 위한 영혼을 가지고 있군요.

I have deep knowledge and wit.

저는 깊은 지식과 재치를 가지고 있습니다.

You have genius, but no discretion.

당신은 천재성은 있지만, 분별력이 없군요.

You raise your naturally high notes so much, that you get covered over.

당신은 타고난 높은 음을 너무 높이 올려서 덮여버리고 맙니다.

They never serve me so.

그들은 저를 그렇게 대하지 않습니다.

Oh, no; I cost them something more than you.

오, 아니요. 저는 당신보다 그들에게 더 많은 것을 요구합니다.

I keep them in order with my beak, and fling my wit about me.

저는 부리로 그들을 통제하고, 제 재치를 사방에 뿌립니다.

Now let us be men.

이제 우리 인간답게 행동합시다.

"O my warm, blooming fatherland," sang the canary bird, "I will sing of thy dark-green trees and thy quiet streams, where the bending branches kiss the clear, smooth water.

"오, 나의 따뜻하고 꽃 피는 조국이여," 카나리아가 노래했습니다. "나는 너의 짙은 초록 나무들과 고요한 시냇물을 노래하리라, 굽은 가지들이 맑고 잔잔한 물에 입 맞추는 그곳을."
