Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 571
But they hurt me so," said the little mermaid.
"하지만 너무 아파요." 인어공주가 말했습니다.
"Pride must suffer pain," replied the old lady.
"아름다움을 얻으려면 고통을 감수해야 한단다." 노부인이 대답했습니다.
Oh, how gladly she would have shaken off all this grandeur, and laid aside the heavy wreath!
오, 그녀는 이 모든 화려함을 떨쳐버리고 무거운 화환을 내려놓을 수 있다면 얼마나 좋을까!
The red flowers in her own garden would have suited her much better, but she could not help herself: so she said, "Farewell," and rose as lightly as a bubble to the surface of the water.
자신의 정원에 있는 붉은 꽃들이 훨씬 더 잘 어울렸겠지만, 어쩔 수 없었습니다. 그래서 그녀는 "안녕히 계세요."라고 말하고, 거품처럼 가볍게 수면 위로 떠올랐습니다.
The sun had just set as she raised her head above the waves; but the clouds were tinted with crimson and gold, and through the glimmering twilight beamed the evening star in all its beauty.
그녀가 파도 위로 머리를 내밀었을 때 태양은 막 지고 있었습니다. 하지만 구름은 진홍빛과 황금빛으로 물들어 있었고, 희미하게 빛나는 황혼 사이로 저녁별이 아름답게 빛나고 있었습니다.
The sea was calm, and the air mild and fresh.
바다는 잔잔했고, 공기는 온화하고 상쾌했습니다.
A large ship, with three masts, lay becalmed on the water, with only one sail set; for not a breeze stiffed, and the sailors sat idle on deck or amongst the rigging.
세 개의 돛대를 가진 큰 배 한 척이 바람 한 점 없는 수면 위에 멈추어 있었고, 돛은 하나만 펼쳐져 있었습니다. 바람이 전혀 불지 않아 선원들은 갑판이나 돛줄 사이에서 한가로이 앉아 있었습니다.
There was music and song on board; and, as darkness came on, a hundred colored lanterns were lighted, as if the flags of all nations waved in the air.
배 안에서는 음악과 노래 소리가 들려왔습니다. 어둠이 내리자 백 개의 색색 등불이 밝혀졌고, 마치 모든 나라의 깃발이 공중에 펄럭이는 것 같았습니다.
The little mermaid swam close to the cabin windows; and now and then, as the waves lifted her up, she could look in through clear glass window-panes, and see a number of well-dressed people within.
인어공주는 선실 창문 가까이 헤엄쳐 갔습니다. 파도가 그녀를 들어 올릴 때마다 그녀는 맑은 유리창 너머로 안을 들여다볼 수 있었고, 잘 차려입은 사람들이 많이 있는 것을 볼 수 있었습니다.
Among them was a young prince, the most beautiful of all, with large black eyes; he was sixteen years of age, and his birthday was being kept with much rejoicing.
그들 중에는 크고 검은 눈을 가진, 가장 아름다운 젊은 왕자가 있었습니다. 그는 열여섯 살이었고, 그의 생일을 성대하게 축하하고 있는 중이었습니다.
