A man, with a glittering star on his breast, gave her his arm, and people said the two were engaged to be married.

가슴에 반짝이는 별을 단 한 남자가 그녀에게 팔을 내밀었고, 사람들은 그 둘이 결혼을 약속한 사이라고 말했다.

Then Knud went home and packed up his knapsack; he felt he must return to the home of his childhood, to the elder-tree and the willow.

그러자 크누드는 집으로 돌아가 배낭을 꾸렸다. 그는 어린 시절의 고향으로, 딱총나무와 버드나무가 있는 그곳으로 돌아가야 한다고 느꼈다.

"Ah, under that willow-tree!" A man may live a whole life in one single hour.

"아, 저 버드나무 아래에서!" 사람은 단 한 시간 안에 일생을 살 수도 있다.

The old couple begged him to remain, but words were useless.

노부부는 그에게 머물러 달라고 애원했지만, 말은 소용이 없었다.

In vain they reminded him that winter was coming, and that the snow had already fallen on the mountains.

그들이 겨울이 다가오고 있으며 산에는 이미 눈이 내렸다고 상기시켜 주었지만 헛수고였다.

He said he could easily follow the track of the closely-moving carriages, for which a path must be kept clear, and with nothing but his knapsack on his back, and leaning on his stick, he could step along briskly.

그는 마차들이 다니는 길은 항상 깨끗이 유지되어야 하므로 그 자국을 쉽게 따라갈 수 있으며, 등에 배낭만 메고 지팡이에 몸을 기댄 채 씩씩하게 걸어갈 수 있다고 말했다.

So he turned his steps to the mountains, ascended one side and descended the other, still going northward till his strength began to fail, and not a house or village could be seen.

그리하여 그는 발걸음을 산으로 돌려, 한쪽을 오르고 다른 쪽을 내려가며 북쪽을 향해 계속 나아갔다. 그러다 기력이 떨어지기 시작했고, 집 한 채도 마을 하나도 눈에 띄지 않았다.

The stars shone in the sky above him, and down in the valley lights glittered like stars, as if another sky were beneath him; but his head was dizzy and his feet stumbled, and he felt ill.

머리 위 하늘에는 별들이 빛나고, 계곡 아래에는 불빛들이 별처럼 반짝여 마치 그의 발아래 또 다른 하늘이 펼쳐진 것 같았다. 그러나 그의 머리는 어지럽고 발은 비틀거렸으며, 그는 몸이 좋지 않음을 느꼈다.
