Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 629
It is seen on the blooming cheeks of my sweet child, when it expresses the pure and holy love of infancy; when refreshed by sleep it opens its eyes, and smiles upon me with childlike affection."
그것은 나의 사랑스러운 아이의 꽃피는 뺨 위에서 볼 수 있어요. 아이가 유아기의 순수하고 성스러운 사랑을 표현할 때, 잠에서 깨어나 눈을 뜨고 어린아이 같은 애정으로 나에게 미소 지을 때요."
"This is a lovely rose," said the wise man; "but there is one still more lovely."
"이것은 아름다운 장미로군요," 하고 현명한 남자가 말했습니다. "하지만 이보다 훨씬 더 아름다운 것이 하나 있습니다."
"Yes, one far more lovely," said one of the women.
"네, 훨씬 더 아름다운 것이 있지요," 하고 여인 중 한 명이 말했습니다.
"I have seen it, and a loftier and purer rose does not bloom.
"저는 그것을 본 적이 있어요. 그보다 더 고귀하고 순수한 장미는 피어나지 않아요.
But it was white, like the leaves of a blush-rose.
하지만 그것은 홍조 띤 장미의 잎사귀처럼 하얀색이었어요.
I saw it on the cheeks of the queen.
저는 그것을 여왕의 뺨 위에서 보았어요.
She had taken off her golden crown, and through the long, dreary night, she carried her sick child in her arms.
그녀는 황금 왕관을 벗어 놓고, 길고 쓸쓸한 밤 내내 병든 아이를 두 팔에 안고 있었어요.
She wept over it, kissed it, and prayed for it as only a mother can pray in that hour of her anguish."
그녀는 아이를 위해 울고, 입 맞추고, 그 고통의 시간에 오직 어머니만이 할 수 있는 기도를 드렸어요."
"Holy and wonderful in its might is the white rose of grief, but it is not the one we seek."
"슬픔의 하얀 장미는 그 힘이 성스럽고 경이롭지만, 우리가 찾는 것은 아닙니다."
"No; the loveliest rose in the world I saw at the Lord's table," said the good old bishop.
"아니요. 세상에서 가장 아름다운 장미는 제가 주님의 식탁에서 보았습니다," 하고 선하고 나이 든 주교가 말했습니다.
"I saw it shine as if an angel's face had appeared.
"저는 그것이 마치 천사의 얼굴이 나타난 것처럼 빛나는 것을 보았습니다.
A young maiden knelt at the altar, and renewed the vows made at her baptism; and there were white roses and red roses on the blushing cheeks of that young girl.
한 젊은 처녀가 제단 앞에 무릎을 꿇고, 세례 때 했던 서약을 새롭게 다짐했습니다. 그 젊은 소녀의 홍조 띤 뺨 위에는 하얀 장미와 붉은 장미가 피어 있었습니다.
She looked up to heaven with all the purity and love of her young spirit, in all the expression of the highest and purest love."
그녀는 어린 영혼의 모든 순수함과 사랑을 담아, 가장 높고 순수한 사랑의 모든 표현으로 하늘을 올려다보았습니다."
