Fairy Tales of Hans Christian Andersen — Page 1281
The drops penetrated through the snowy covering down into the earth, and touched the flower-bulb, and talked of the bright world above.
빗방울들은 눈 덮인 지면을 뚫고 땅속으로 스며들어 꽃의 구근을 어루만지며 위에 펼쳐진 밝은 세상에 대해 이야기했습니다.
Soon the Sunbeam pierced its way through the snow to the root, and within the root there was a stirring.
곧 햇살이 눈을 뚫고 뿌리까지 파고들었고, 뿌리 안에서는 꿈틀거림이 일었습니다.
But the summer was yet far distant.
하지만 여름은 아직 멀리 있었습니다.
The snow still lay upon the ground, and there was a coat of ice on the water every night.
눈은 여전히 땅 위에 쌓여 있었고, 밤마다 물 위에는 얼음이 얼었습니다.
And the Flower stirred and stretched itself within the thin rind which the water had softened from without, and the snow and the earth had warmed, and the Sunbeam had knocked at; and it shot forth under the snow with a greenish-white blossom on a green stalk, with narrow thick leaves, which seemed to want to protect it.
그리고 꽃은 물이 바깥에서 부드럽게 하고, 눈과 땅이 따뜻하게 하고, 햇살이 두드렸던 얇은 껍질 안에서 꿈틀거리며 몸을 뻗었습니다. 그리하여 꽃은 푸른 줄기 위에 녹백색 꽃봉오리를 달고, 꽃을 보호하려는 듯한 좁고 두꺼운 잎들을 거느리며 눈 아래에서 힘차게 솟아올랐습니다.
