Harrigan — Page 3

English → Korean CHAPTER 1 Level 4/10

The gayest crowds cannot quite disturb the brooding peace which is like the promise of sleep and rest at sunset.

가장 흥겨운 군중들도 해질 무렵 잠과 휴식의 약속처럼 느껴지는 그 깊은 평화를 완전히 흔들어 놓을 수는 없었다.

It was not pleasing to Harrigan.

해리건에게는 달갑지 않은 풍경이었다.

He frowned and drew a quick, impatient breath, muttering: "I'm not long for this joint. I gotta be moving."

그는 얼굴을 찌푸리며 빠르고 짜증스러운 숨을 내쉬고는 중얼거렸다. "이런 곳에 오래 있을 생각 없어. 움직여야겠어."

He joined a crowd which eddied toward the center of Ivilei.

그는 이빌레이 중심부를 향해 소용돌이치듯 흘러가는 군중 속으로 섞여 들었다.

In there it was better.

그 안쪽은 사정이 달랐다.

Negro soldiers, marines from the _Maryland_, Kanakas, Chinamen, Japanese, Portuguese, Americans; a score of nationalities and complexions rubbed shoulders as they wandered aimlessly among the many bright-painted cottages.

흑인 병사들, 메릴랜드 함의 해병대원들, 카나카인들, 중국인들, 일본인들, 포르투갈인들, 미국인들 등 수십 가지 국적과 피부색의 사람들이 밝은 색으로 칠해진 여러 오두막들 사이를 목적 없이 배회하며 어깨를 맞댔다.

Yet even in that careless throng of pleasure-seekers no one rubbed shoulders with Harrigan.

하지만 그 무심한 환락객들의 무리 속에서도 해리건과 어깨를 맞대는 사람은 아무도 없었다.

The flame of his hair was like a red lamp which warned them away.

그의 불꽃 같은 머리카락은 사람들을 물리치는 붉은 경고등 같았다.

Or perhaps it was his eye, which seemed to linger for a cold, incurious instant on every face that approached.

아니면 그것은 다가오는 모든 얼굴 위에 차갑고 무관심하게 잠시 머무는 듯한 그의 눈빛 때문이었는지도 몰랐다.

He picked out the prettiest of the girls who sat at the windows chatting with all who passed.

그는 지나가는 모든 이들과 잡담을 나누며 창가에 앉아 있는 소녀들 중 가장 예쁜 소녀를 골라냈다.

He did not have to shoulder to win a way through the crowd of her admirers.

그는 그녀를 흠모하는 군중을 헤치고 나아가기 위해 어깨를 밀어붙일 필요가 없었다.

She was a _hap haoli_, with the fine features of the Caucasian and the black of hair and eye which shows the islander.

그녀는 하프 하올리로, 코카서스인의 섬세한 이목구비와 섬사람의 특징을 드러내는 검은 머리카락과 검은 눈동자를 지니고 있었다.

A rounded elbow rested on the sill of the window; her chin was cupped in her hand.

둥근 팔꿈치가 창틀 위에 얹혀 있었고, 그녀의 턱은 손 위에 괴어져 있었다.

"Send these away," said Harrigan, and leaned an elbow beside hers.

"이 사람들을 보내버려요," 해리건이 말하며 그녀의 팔꿈치 옆에 자신의 팔꿈치를 기댔다.

"Oh," she murmured; then: "And if I send them away?"

"어머," 그녀가 중얼거렸다. 그러더니 이렇게 물었다. "만약 내가 그들을 보내버리면요?"

"I'll reward you."

"보답해 드리죠."

"Reward?"

"보답이요?"
