Peter Pan — Page 9

English → Korean Chapter I. Level 4/10

When you play at it by day with the chairs and table-cloth, it is not in the least alarming, but in the two minutes before you go to sleep it becomes very real.

낮에 의자와 식탁보로 그것을 흉내 내어 놀 때는 조금도 무섭지 않지만, 잠들기 전 두 분 동안은 그것이 매우 실감 나게 느껴집니다.

That is why there are night-lights.

그것이 바로 취침등이 있는 이유입니다.

Occasionally in her travels through her children's minds Mrs. Darling found things she could not understand, and of these quite the most perplexing was the word Peter.

달링 부인은 아이들의 마음속을 여행하다가 이따금 이해할 수 없는 것들을 발견했는데, 그중에서 가장 당혹스러운 것은 피터라는 이름이었습니다.

She knew of no Peter, and yet he was here and there in John and Michael's minds, while Wendy's began to be scrawled all over with him.

그녀는 피터라는 사람을 알지 못했지만, 그는 존과 마이클의 마음속 여기저기에 있었고, 웬디의 마음속은 온통 그의 이름으로 가득 차기 시작했습니다.

The name stood out in bolder letters than any of the other words, and as Mrs. Darling gazed she felt that it had an oddly cocky appearance.

그 이름은 다른 어떤 단어보다도 굵은 글씨로 두드러졌고, 달링 부인은 그것을 바라보며 묘하게 건방진 느낌이 든다고 생각했습니다.

"Yes, he is rather cocky," Wendy admitted with regret.

"네, 그는 꽤 건방지긴 해요," 웬디가 아쉬운 듯 인정했습니다.

Her mother had been questioning her.

어머니가 그녀에게 물어보고 있었던 것입니다.

"But who is he, my pet?"

"그런데 그가 누구니, 내 사랑?"

"He is Peter Pan, you know, mother."

"그는 피터 팬이에요, 있잖아요, 엄마."

At first Mrs. Darling did not know, but after thinking back into her childhood she just remembered a Peter Pan who was said to live with the fairies.

처음에 달링 부인은 알지 못했지만, 어린 시절을 떠올리다가 요정들과 함께 산다고 전해지는 피터 팬을 겨우 기억해 냈습니다.

There were odd stories about him, as that when children died he went part of the way with them, so that they should not be frightened.

그에 관한 기묘한 이야기들이 있었는데, 아이들이 죽으면 그가 그들이 무서워하지 않도록 일부 길을 함께 동행해 준다는 것이었습니다.

She had believed in him at the time, but now that she was married and full of sense she quite doubted whether there was any such person.

그녀는 그 당시에는 그를 믿었지만, 이제 결혼하여 분별력이 생기고 보니 그런 사람이 실재하는지 상당히 의심스러웠습니다.

"Besides," she said to Wendy, "he would be grown up by this time.

"게다가," 그녀가 웬디에게 말했습니다, "그는 지금쯤이면 다 자랐을 거야.
