Harrigan — Page 2
His beat is quiet. Shall I tell him to come with us?"
그의 순찰 구역은 조용합니다. 그에게 우리와 함께 오라고 할까요?"
"No," grinned the sergeant, and then looked up and watched the broad shoulders of the red-haired man, who advanced through the crowd as the prow of a ship lunges through the waves.
"아니오," 하고 경사가 씩 웃으며 말하고는, 고개를 들어 붉은 머리 남자의 넓은 어깨를 바라보았다. 그 남자는 배의 이물이 파도를 가르듯 군중 사이를 헤쳐 나아가고 있었다.
"Go get Morley," he said abruptly.
"몰리를 데려와," 그가 불쑥 말했다.
But Harrigan went on his way without misgivings, not that he forgot the policeman, but he was accustomed to stand under the suspicious eye of the law.
하지만 해리건은 아무런 걱정 없이 제 갈 길을 갔다. 경찰관을 잊은 것이 아니라, 그는 법의 의심스러운 눈길 아래 서는 것에 익숙해져 있었다.
In all the course of his wanderings it had been upon him.
그의 방랑 생활 내내 그것은 그를 따라다녔다.
His coming was to the men in uniform like the sound of the battle trumpet to the cavalry horse.
그의 등장은 제복을 입은 사람들에게 전투 나팔 소리가 기병대의 말에게 그러하듯 했다.
This, however, was Harrigan's first night in Honolulu, and there was much to see, much to do.
그러나 이날은 해리건이 호놀룰루에서 보내는 첫날 밤이었고, 볼 것도 많고 할 것도 많았다.
He had rambled through the streets; now he was headed for the Ivilei district.
그는 거리를 이리저리 돌아다녔고, 이제는 이빌레이 지구를 향해 가고 있었다.
Instinct brought him there, the still, small voice which had guided him from trouble to trouble all his life.
본능이 그를 그곳으로 이끌었다. 그것은 평생 그를 곤경에서 곤경으로 이끌어 온 조용하고 작은 목소리였다.
At a corner he stopped to watch a group of Kanakas who passed him, wreathed with leis and thrumming their ukuleles.
모퉁이에서 그는 발걸음을 멈추고 레이를 두르고 우쿨렐레를 퉁기며 지나가는 카나카 무리를 바라보았다.
They sang in their soft, many-voweled language and the sound was to Harrigan like the rush and lapse of water on a beach, infinitely soothing and as lazy as the atmosphere of Honolulu.
그들은 부드럽고 모음이 풍부한 언어로 노래를 불렀고, 그 소리는 해리건에게 해변에서 물이 밀려왔다 사라지는 것처럼 한없이 달래주고 호놀룰루의 분위기만큼이나 나른하게 느껴졌다.
All things are subdued in the strange city where East and West meet in the middle of the Pacific.
태평양 한가운데서 동양과 서양이 만나는 이 이국적인 도시에서는 모든 것이 차분하게 가라앉아 있다.
