Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 811
Everything," said the emperor, who, having dressed himself in his imperial robes, stood with the hand that held the heavy golden sword pressed to his heart.
"모든 것을," 황제가 말했다. 그는 황제의 예복을 차려입고, 무거운 황금 검을 쥔 손을 가슴에 얹은 채 서 있었다.
"I only ask one thing," she replied; "let no one know that you have a little bird who tells you everything.
"저는 단 한 가지만 부탁드립니다," 그녀가 대답했다. "당신에게 모든 것을 알려주는 작은 새가 있다는 것을 아무도 모르게 해주세요.
It will be best to conceal it." So saying, the nightingale flew away.
그것을 숨기는 것이 가장 좋을 것입니다." 그렇게 말하며, 나이팅게일은 날아가 버렸다.
The servants now came in to look after the dead emperor; when, lo! there he stood, and, to their astonishment, said, "Good morning."
하인들이 이제 죽은 황제를 살피러 들어왔다. 그런데, 이게 어찌된 일인가! 황제가 그곳에 서 있었고, 하인들이 깜짝 놀랍게도 "좋은 아침입니다"라고 말했다.
THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT
그것은 틀림없는 사실이다
"That was a terrible affair!" said a hen, and in a quarter of the town, too, where it had not taken place.
"그것은 끔찍한 사건이었어!" 한 암탉이 말했다. 그것도 그 일이 일어나지도 않은 동네의 한 구역에서.
"That was a terrible affair in a hen-roost. I cannot sleep alone to-night. It is a good thing that many of us sit on the roost together."
"닭장에서 끔찍한 일이 있었어. 오늘 밤은 혼자 잘 수가 없어. 우리 중 많은 수가 함께 홰에 앉는다는 건 정말 다행이야."
And then she told a story that made the feathers on the other hens bristle up, and the cock's comb fall.
그러고 나서 그녀는 다른 암탉들의 깃털을 곤두서게 하고, 수탉의 볏을 축 늘어지게 만드는 이야기를 들려주었다.
There was no doubt about it.
그것은 틀림없는 사실이었다.
But we will begin at the beginning, and that is to be found in a hen-roost in another part of the town.
하지만 우리는 처음부터 시작할 것이다. 그 시작은 도시의 다른 지역에 있는 닭장에서 찾을 수 있다.
The sun was setting, and the fowls were flying on to their roost; one hen, with white feathers and short legs, used to lay her eggs according to the regulations, and was, as a hen, respectable in every way.
해가 지고 있었고, 닭들은 홰로 날아오르고 있었다. 흰 깃털에 짧은 다리를 가진 한 암탉은 규정에 따라 알을 낳곤 했으며, 암탉으로서 모든 면에서 훌륭했다.
As she was flying upon the roost, she plucked herself with her beak, and a little feather came out.
그녀가 홰 위로 날아오를 때, 부리로 자신의 깃털을 다듬다가 작은 깃털 하나가 빠져나왔다.
