The Adventures of Reddy Fox — Page 14
"If he doesn't hear and heed now, it won't be my fault!"
"만약 그가 지금 듣고 주의를 기울이지 않는다면, 그건 내 잘못이 아니야!"
Then Drummer the Woodpecker began such a furious rat-a-tat-tat-tat on the trunk of the old tree that it rang through the Green Forest and out across the Green Meadows almost to the Purple Hills.
그러자 딱따구리 드러머는 오래된 나무 줄기에 맹렬한 딱딱딱딱 소리를 내기 시작했고, 그 소리는 초록 숲을 울리며 초록 들판을 가로질러 거의 보랏빛 언덕까지 퍼져 나갔다.
Down at the foot of the tree a freckled face on which there was a black scowl looked up.
나무 아래쪽에서 험상궂은 표정을 한 주근깨 가득한 얼굴이 위를 올려다보았다.
It was the face of Farmer Brown's boy.
그것은 브라운 농부의 아들의 얼굴이었다.
"What ails that pesky woodpecker?" he muttered.
"저 성가신 딱따구리는 왜 저러는 거야?" 그가 중얼거렸다.
"If he doesn't keep still, he'll scare that fox!"
"저놈이 조용히 하지 않으면, 저 여우를 놀라게 할 거야!"
He shook a fist at Drummer, but Drummer didn't appear to notice.
그는 드러머를 향해 주먹을 흔들었지만, 드러머는 전혀 알아채지 못하는 것 같았다.
He kept right on, rat-a-tat-tat-tat, rat-a-tat-tat-tat, rat-a-tat-tat-tat!
그는 계속해서 딱딱딱딱, 딱딱딱딱, 딱딱딱딱 소리를 냈다!
VII. Too Late Reddy Fox Hears
7장. 너무 늦게 레디 여우가 듣다
Drummer the Woodpecker was pounding out his danger signal so fast and so hard that his red head flew back and forth almost too fast to see.
딱따구리 드러머는 너무 빠르고 세게 위험 신호를 두드리고 있어서 그의 빨간 머리가 거의 눈으로 따라가기 힘들 만큼 앞뒤로 빠르게 움직였다.
Rat-a-tat-tat-a-tat-tat, beat Drummer on the old tree trunk on the edge of the Green Forest.
딱딱딱딱딱딱, 드러머는 초록 숲 가장자리에 있는 오래된 나무 줄기를 두드렸다.
When he stopped for breath, he looked down into the scowling face of Farmer Brown's boy, who was hiding behind the old tree trunk.
숨을 돌리기 위해 멈췄을 때, 그는 오래된 나무 줄기 뒤에 숨어 있는 브라운 농부의 아들의 험상궂은 얼굴을 내려다보았다.
Drummer didn't like the looks of that scowl, not a bit.
드러머는 그 험상궂은 표정이 전혀 마음에 들지 않았다.
And he didn't like the looks of the gun which Farmer Brown's boy had.
그리고 그는 브라운 농부의 아들이 가지고 있는 총도 마음에 들지 않았다.
He knew that Farmer Brown's boy was hiding there to shoot Reddy Fox, but Drummer was beginning to be afraid that Farmer Brown's boy might guess what all that drumming meant--that it was a warning to Reddy Fox.
그는 브라운 농부의 아들이 레디 여우를 쏘기 위해 그곳에 숨어 있다는 것을 알고 있었지만, 드러머는 브라운 농부의 아들이 그 모든 두드리는 소리의 의미를, 즉 그것이 레디 여우에 대한 경고라는 것을 눈치챌까 봐 두려워지기 시작했다.
