Peter Pan — Page 12

English → Korean Chapter I. Level 4/10

She let down a tape from the window to the pavement, and it was a sheer drop of thirty feet, without so much as a spout to climb up by.

그녀는 창문에서 보도까지 줄자를 내려뜨렸는데, 기어오를 수 있는 홈통 하나 없이 그대로 삼십 피트나 되는 낭떠러지였다.

Certainly Wendy had been dreaming.

분명히 웬디는 꿈을 꾸고 있었던 것이다.

But Wendy had not been dreaming, as the very next night showed, the night on which the extraordinary adventures of these children may be said to have begun.

하지만 웬디는 꿈을 꾼 것이 아니었으니, 바로 다음 날 밤이 그것을 증명해 주었다. 그 밤이야말로 이 아이들의 놀라운 모험이 시작되었다고 할 수 있는 밤이었다.

On the night we speak of all the children were once more in bed.

우리가 말하는 그 밤에 아이들은 모두 다시 침대에 누워 있었다.

It happened to be Nana's evening off, and Mrs. Darling had bathed them and sung to them till one by one they had let go her hand and slid away into the land of sleep.

마침 나나의 저녁 휴무일이었고, 달링 부인은 아이들을 목욕시키고 노래를 불러 주어 아이들이 하나씩 그녀의 손을 놓고 잠의 나라로 빠져들게 했다.

All were looking so safe and cosy that she smiled at her fears now and sat down tranquilly by the fire to sew.

아이들 모두 너무도 안전하고 아늑해 보였기에 그녀는 이제 자신의 걱정이 우습다는 듯 미소를 지으며 조용히 벽난로 곁에 앉아 바느질을 시작했다.

It was something for Michael, who on his birthday was getting into shirts.

그것은 마이클을 위한 것으로, 마이클은 생일을 맞아 셔츠를 입기 시작하는 나이가 되었다.

The fire was warm, however, and the nursery dimly lit by three night-lights, and presently the sewing lay on Mrs. Darling's lap.

그러나 벽난로는 따뜻했고, 아이들 방은 세 개의 야간등으로 희미하게 밝혀져 있었으며, 이윽고 바느질감이 달링 부인의 무릎 위에 놓였다.

Then her head nodded, oh, so gracefully.

그러더니 그녀의 머리가 끄덕였다, 아, 얼마나 우아하게.

She was asleep.

그녀는 잠들어 있었다.

Look at the four of them, Wendy and Michael over there, John here, and Mrs. Darling by the fire.

네 사람을 보라, 저쪽에 웬디와 마이클, 여기에 존, 그리고 벽난로 곁의 달링 부인.

There should have been a fourth night-light.

야간등이 네 개 있었어야 했다.

While she slept she had a dream.

그녀가 잠든 사이 꿈을 꾸었다.

She dreamt that the Neverland had come too near and that a strange boy had broken through from it.

그녀는 네버랜드가 너무 가까이 다가왔고 낯선 소년 하나가 그곳을 뚫고 나왔다는 꿈을 꾸었다.
