The young storks performed their part so well that they received a mark of honor, with frogs and snakes as a present.

어린 황새들은 자신들의 역할을 너무나 잘 수행하여 개구리와 뱀을 선물로 받으며 명예의 표시를 받았습니다.

These presents were the best part of the affair, for they could eat the frogs and snakes, which they very quickly did.

이 선물들은 그 일에서 가장 좋은 부분이었는데, 개구리와 뱀을 먹을 수 있었고, 그것들을 아주 빠르게 먹어치웠습니다.

"Now let us have our revenge," they cried.

"이제 우리의 복수를 합시다," 그들이 외쳤습니다.

"Yes, certainly," cried the mother stork.

"네, 물론이죠," 어미 황새가 외쳤습니다.

"I have thought upon the best way to be revenged.

"복수하는 가장 좋은 방법을 생각해 두었습니다.

I know the pond in which all the little children lie, waiting till the storks come to take them to their parents.

저는 모든 어린 아이들이 황새가 와서 부모에게 데려다줄 때까지 기다리며 누워 있는 연못을 알고 있습니다.

The prettiest little babies lie there dreaming more sweetly than they will ever dream in the time to come.

가장 예쁜 아기들이 그곳에 누워 앞으로 꿀 어떤 꿈보다도 더 달콤하게 꿈을 꾸고 있습니다.

All parents are glad to have a little child, and children are so pleased with a little brother or sister.

모든 부모들은 어린 아이를 갖게 되어 기뻐하고, 아이들은 남동생이나 여동생이 생기면 매우 기뻐합니다.

Now we will fly to the pond and fetch a little baby for each of the children who did not sing that naughty song to make game of the storks."

이제 우리는 연못으로 날아가서 황새를 놀리는 그 못된 노래를 부르지 않은 아이들 각각에게 작은 아기를 데려다줄 것입니다."

"But the naughty boy, who began the song first, what shall we do to him?" cried the young storks.

"하지만 먼저 노래를 시작한 못된 소년에게는 우리가 어떻게 해야 하나요?" 어린 황새들이 외쳤습니다.

"There lies in the pond a little dead baby who has dreamed itself to death," said the mother.

"연못 안에 꿈을 꾸다가 죽어버린 작은 죽은 아기가 누워 있습니다," 어미 황새가 말했습니다.

We will take it to the naughty boy, and he will cry because we have brought him a little dead brother.

우리는 그것을 못된 소년에게 가져다줄 것이고, 그는 우리가 죽은 남동생을 데려다주었기 때문에 울 것입니다.
