The little island, on which grew the three acacias, lay at a short distance, looking like a bouquet rising from the lake.

세 그루의 아카시아가 자라고 있는 작은 섬은 가까운 거리에 있었으며, 호수에서 솟아오른 꽃다발처럼 보였다.

"How delightful it must be to live there," said Babette, who again felt the greatest wish to visit the island;

"저곳에서 사는 것이 얼마나 즐거울까," 라고 바베트가 말했는데, 그녀는 다시 한번 그 섬을 방문하고 싶은 강렬한 소망을 느꼈다.

and an opportunity offered to gratify her wish at once, for on the shore lay a boat, and the rope by which it was moored could be very easily loosened.

그리고 그녀의 소망을 즉시 충족시킬 기회가 생겼는데, 해안가에 보트 한 척이 있었고, 그것을 묶어 놓은 밧줄을 아주 쉽게 풀 수 있었기 때문이다.

They saw no one near, so they took possession of it without asking permission of any one, and Rudy could row very well.

주변에 아무도 없었기에 그들은 누구의 허락도 구하지 않고 보트를 차지했으며, 루디는 노를 매우 잘 저을 수 있었다.

The oars divided the pliant water like the fins of a fish--that water which, with all its yielding softness, is so strong to bear and to carry, so mild and smiling when at rest, and yet so terrible in its destroying power.

노는 물고기의 지느러미처럼 유연한 물을 갈랐는데, 그 물은 모든 유순한 부드러움에도 불구하고 지탱하고 운반하는 데 이토록 강하고, 고요할 때는 이토록 온화하고 잔잔하지만, 파괴하는 힘에서는 이토록 무섭다.

A white streak of foam followed in the wake of the boat, which, in a few minutes, carried them both to the little island, where they went on shore;

흰 거품 줄기가 보트의 항적을 따라 이어졌고, 보트는 몇 분 만에 그들 둘을 작은 섬으로 데려다 주었으며, 그들은 그곳에 상륙했다.

but there was only just room enough for two to dance.

그러나 두 사람이 춤을 출 만한 공간밖에 없었다.

Rudy swung Babette round two or three times; and then, hand-in-hand, they sat down on a little bench under the drooping acacia-tree, and looked into each other's eyes, while everything around them glowed in the rays of the setting sun.

루디는 바베트를 두세 번 빙글 돌리고 나서, 손을 잡고 늘어진 아카시아 나무 아래 작은 벤치에 앉아 서로의 눈을 바라보았으며, 그들 주변의 모든 것이 지는 태양의 빛살 속에서 빛났다.
