Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1055
So he came home again and was sad, for he would have liked very much to have a real princess.
그래서 그는 다시 집으로 돌아왔고 슬펐습니다. 진짜 공주를 맞이하고 싶었기 때문입니다.
One evening a terrible storm came on; there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents.
어느 날 저녁 무서운 폭풍이 몰아쳤습니다. 천둥과 번개가 치고, 비가 억수같이 쏟아졌습니다.
Suddenly a knocking was heard at the city gate, and the old king went to open it.
갑자기 성문에서 두드리는 소리가 들렸고, 늙은 왕이 문을 열러 갔습니다.
It was a princess standing out there in front of the gate.
문 앞에 한 공주가 서 있었습니다.
But, good gracious! what a sight the rain and the wind had made her look.
그런데, 세상에! 비와 바람이 그녀를 얼마나 엉망으로 만들어 놓았는지요.
The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels.
물이 그녀의 머리카락과 옷에서 흘러내렸고, 신발 앞코로 흘러들어가 뒤꿈치로 다시 흘러나왔습니다.
And yet she said that she was a real princess.
그런데도 그녀는 자신이 진짜 공주라고 말했습니다.
"Well, we'll soon find that out," thought the old queen.
"음, 곧 알아낼 수 있겠지," 하고 늙은 왕비는 생각했습니다.
But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all the bedding off the bedstead, and laid a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of the mattresses.
하지만 그녀는 아무 말도 하지 않고 침실로 들어가, 침대에서 이불을 모두 걷어낸 뒤 바닥에 완두콩 하나를 놓았습니다. 그런 다음 완두콩 위에 매트리스 스무 개를 올려놓고, 그 위에 다시 오리털 이불 스무 개를 쌓았습니다.
On this the princess had to lie all night.
공주는 그 위에서 밤새 자야 했습니다.
In the morning she was asked how she had slept.
아침에 그녀는 어떻게 주무셨냐는 질문을 받았습니다.
"Oh, very badly!" said she.
"오, 정말 끔찍했어요!" 하고 그녀가 말했습니다.
"I have scarcely closed my eyes all night.
"밤새 거의 눈을 붙이지 못했어요.
Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body.
침대에 뭐가 있었는지 하늘만 알겠지만, 딱딱한 무언가 위에 누워 있었던 탓에 온몸이 멍투성이가 되었어요.
It's horrible!"
정말 끔찍해요!"
