Little Women — Page 14
Tell them I think of them by day, pray for them by night, and find my best comfort in their affection at all times.
그들에게 내가 낮에는 그들을 생각하고, 밤에는 그들을 위해 기도하며, 언제나 그들의 사랑 속에서 가장 큰 위안을 찾는다고 전해 주세요.
A year seems very long to wait before I see them, but remind them that while we wait we may all work, so that these hard days need not be wasted.
그들을 다시 만나기까지 일 년이라는 시간이 매우 길게 느껴지지만, 기다리는 동안 우리 모두 열심히 일할 수 있으니 이 힘든 날들이 헛되지 않을 것이라고 상기시켜 주세요.
I know they will remember all I said to them, that they will be loving children to you, will do their duty faithfully, fight their bosom enemies bravely, and conquer themselves so beautifully that when I come back to them I may be fonder and prouder than ever of my little women.
나는 그들이 내가 한 말을 모두 기억할 것이며, 당신에게 사랑스러운 자녀가 되고, 맡은 바 의무를 충실히 다하며, 마음속의 적들과 용감히 싸우고, 자신을 아름답게 이겨내어 내가 돌아왔을 때 나의 작은 여인들이 그 어느 때보다 더 사랑스럽고 자랑스럽게 느껴질 것이라는 것을 알고 있습니다.
Everybody sniffed when they came to that part.
모두가 그 부분에 이르렀을 때 훌쩍였습니다.
Jo wasn't ashamed of the great tear that dropped off the end of her nose, and Amy never minded the rumpling of her curls as she hid her face on her mother's shoulder and sobbed out, "I am a selfish girl!
조는 자신의 코끝에서 떨어지는 굵은 눈물방울을 부끄러워하지 않았고, 에이미는 어머니의 어깨에 얼굴을 묻고 흐느끼며 "저는 이기적인 아이예요!
But I'll truly try to be better, so he mayn't be disappointed in me by-and-by."
하지만 정말로 더 나아지려고 노력할게요, 그래서 나중에 아버지가 저에게 실망하지 않도록요."라고 흐느꼈습니다.
"We all will," cried Meg.
"우리 모두 그럴 거예요,"라고 메그가 외쳤습니다.
"I think too much of my looks and hate to work, but won't any more, if I can help it.
"저는 외모에 너무 신경을 쓰고 일하기를 싫어하지만, 할 수 있다면 앞으로는 그러지 않을 거예요.
