Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 685
The bird flew away from my bosom, upwards towards the dark, heavy canopy above me, but a long, green band kept it fastened to me.
새는 내 품에서 날아올라, 내 위에 드리운 어둡고 무거운 천장을 향해 위로 올라갔지만, 길고 푸른 띠가 새를 나에게 묶어 두었습니다.
I heard and understood the tenor of its longings.
나는 그 새의 갈망이 담긴 노래를 듣고 이해했습니다.
Freedom! sunlight! to my father!
자유! 햇빛! 아버지에게로!
Then I thought of my father, and the sunny land of my birth, my life, and my love.
그때 나는 아버지와, 내가 태어난 햇살 가득한 땅과, 나의 삶과, 나의 사랑을 떠올렸습니다.
Then I loosened the band, and let the bird fly away to its home--to a father.
그래서 나는 띠를 풀어 새가 고향으로, 아버지에게로 날아가도록 놓아주었습니다.
Since that hour I have ceased to dream; my sleep has been long and heavy, till in this very hour, harmony and fragrance awoke me, and set me free."
그 순간부터 나는 꿈을 꾸지 않았습니다. 나의 잠은 길고 깊었으나, 바로 이 시간에 화음과 향기가 나를 깨워 자유롭게 해주었습니다."
The green band which fastened the wings of the bird to the mother's heart, where did it flutter now? whither had it been wafted?
새의 날개를 어머니의 가슴에 묶어 두었던 그 푸른 띠는, 지금은 어디에서 펄럭이고 있을까요? 어디로 흘러갔을까요?
The stork only had seen it.
황새만이 그것을 보았습니다.
The band was the green stalk, the cup of the flower the cradle in which lay the child, that now in blooming beauty had been folded to the mother's heart.
그 띠는 푸른 줄기였고, 꽃의 꽃받침은 아이가 누워 있던 요람이었으며, 그 아이는 이제 활짝 핀 아름다움 속에 어머니의 가슴에 안겨 있었습니다.
And while the two were resting in each other's arms, the old stork flew round and round them in narrowing circles, till at length he flew away swiftly to his nest, and fetched away the two suits of swan's feathers, which he had preserved there for many years.
두 사람이 서로의 팔에 안겨 쉬고 있는 동안, 늙은 황새는 점점 좁아지는 원을 그리며 그들 주위를 빙빙 날다가, 마침내 재빠르게 둥지로 날아가 오랜 세월 동안 간직해 두었던 두 벌의 백조 깃털 옷을 가져왔습니다.
Then he returned to the mother and daughter, and threw the swan's plumage over them; the feathers immediately closed around them, and they rose up from the earth in the form of two white swans.
그런 다음 그는 어머니와 딸에게 돌아와 백조의 깃털 옷을 그들에게 던졌습니다. 깃털은 즉시 그들을 감싸 닫혔고, 그들은 두 마리의 흰 백조의 모습으로 땅에서 솟아올랐습니다.
