Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1194
They say he is here to make his beard grow," she thought;
"그는 수염을 기르러 여기에 왔다고들 하던데," 그녀는 생각했다;
"but I know the real cause, he is unable to cast a shadow."
"하지만 나는 진짜 이유를 알아, 그는 그림자를 드리울 수가 없는 거야."
Then she became very curious on the matter, and one day, while on the promenade, she entered into conversation with the strange gentleman.
그러자 그녀는 그 문제에 대해 매우 궁금해졌고, 어느 날 산책로를 거닐다가 그 이상한 신사와 대화를 나누게 되었다.
Being a princess, she was not obliged to stand upon much ceremony, so she said to him without hesitation, "Your illness consists in not being able to cast a shadow."
공주였기에 그녀는 격식을 크게 차릴 필요가 없었으므로, 그에게 거리낌 없이 말했다, "당신의 병은 그림자를 드리울 수 없다는 데 있군요."
"Your royal highness must be on the high road to recovery from your illness," said he.
"왕녀 전하께서는 병환이 많이 회복되신 것 같습니다," 그가 말했다.
"I know your complaint arose from being too sharp-sighted, and in this case it has entirely failed.
"전하의 증세가 너무 예리한 시력에서 비롯되었음을 알고 있습니다만, 이번 경우에는 그 판단이 완전히 빗나갔습니다.
I happen to have a most unusual shadow.
저는 매우 특이한 그림자를 가지고 있답니다.
Have you not seen a person who is always at my side?
항상 제 곁에 있는 사람을 보지 못하셨습니까?
Persons often give their servants finer cloth for their liveries than for their own clothes, and so I have dressed out my shadow like a man; nay, you may observe that I have even given him a shadow of his own; it is rather expensive, but I like to have things about me that are peculiar."
사람들은 흔히 자신의 옷보다 하인의 제복에 더 좋은 천을 쓰기도 하지요, 그래서 저는 제 그림자를 사람처럼 차려입혔습니다; 아니, 제가 그에게 그 자신의 그림자까지 만들어 주었다는 것도 아실 수 있을 겁니다; 꽤 비용이 들었지만, 저는 제 주변에 특별한 것들이 있기를 좋아하거든요."
"How is this?" thought the princess; "am I really cured?
"이게 어떻게 된 일이지?" 공주는 생각했다; "내가 정말로 나은 건가?
This must be the best watering-place in existence.
여기가 세상에서 가장 좋은 온천지임에 틀림없어.
Water in our times has certainly wonderful power.
요즘 시대에 물은 분명 놀라운 효능을 지니고 있어.
But I will not leave this place yet, just as it begins to be amusing.
하지만 이제 막 재미있어지기 시작하는 참인데, 아직 이곳을 떠나지 않을 거야.
This foreign prince--for he must be a prince--pleases me above all things.
이 외국 왕자는--분명 왕자임에 틀림없어--무엇보다도 내 마음에 들어.
