His purpose with performance crown'd,

그의 목적은 실행으로 완성되어,

He to his well-pleased Wife rehears'd,

그는 흡족해하는 아내에게 다시 들려주었네,

When next their Wedding-Day came round,

다음번 결혼기념일이 돌아왔을 때,

His leisure's labour, 'Book the First.'

여가에 기울인 노고를, '제1권'을.

CANTO I

제1편

The Cathedral Close.

대성당 구내.

PRELUDES.

서곡.

I.

I.

_The Impossibility_.

_불가능_.

Lo, love's obey'd by all. 'Tis right

보라, 사랑은 모든 이에게 따름을 받는다. 마땅하도다

That all should know what they obey,

모든 이가 자신이 따르는 것을 알아야 하니,

Lest erring conscience damp delight,

그릇된 양심이 기쁨을 꺾지 않도록,

And folly laugh our joys away.

어리석음이 우리의 즐거움을 비웃어 쫓아내지 않도록.

Thou Primal Love, who grantest wings

오 원초의 사랑이여, 날개를 주시고

And voices to the woodland birds,

숲속 새들에게 목소리를 내려주시는 분이여,

Grant me the power of saying things

내게 말할 힘을 주소서

Too simple and too sweet for words!

말로는 너무도 단순하고 너무도 달콤한 것들을!

II.

II.

_Love's Really_.

_사랑의 실재_.

I walk, I trust, with open eyes;

나는 믿건대, 눈을 뜨고 걸어가노라;

I've travell'd half my worldly course;

세상의 여정 절반을 나는 걸어왔노라;

And in the way behind me lies

그리고 내 뒤에 남겨진 길에는

Much vanity and some remorse;

많은 허영과 약간의 후회가 놓여 있노라;

I've lived to feel how pride may part

나는 자존심이 어떻게 영혼들을 갈라놓는지 느끼며 살아왔노라,

Spirits, tho' match'd like hand and glove;

손과 장갑처럼 잘 맞는 영혼들조차도;

I've blush'd for love's abode, the heart;

나는 사랑의 거처인 마음을 부끄러워한 적도 있노라;

But have not disbelieved in love;

그러나 사랑을 불신한 적은 없노라;

Nor unto love, sole mortal thing

또한 사랑에게, 불멸의 가치를 지닌 유일한 가멸적 존재에게,

Of worth immortal, done the wrong

잘못을 저지른 적도 없노라

To count it, with the rest that sing,

그것을, 노래하는 나머지 것들과 함께,

Unworthy of a serious song;

진지한 노래에 값하지 않는다고 여기는 잘못을;

And love is my reward; for now,

그리고 사랑이 나의 보상이라; 이제,

When most of dead'ning time complain,

대부분이 무감각한 세월을 탄식할 때,

The myrtle blooms upon my brow,

은매화가 내 이마 위에 피어나고,

Its odour quickens all my brain.

그 향기가 나의 온 정신을 일깨우노라.

III.

III.

_The Poet's Confidence_.

_시인의 확신_.

The richest realm of all the earth

온 세상에서 가장 풍요로운 나라가

Is counted still a heathen land:

여전히 이교도의 땅으로 여겨지노라:

Lo, I, like Joshua, now go forth

보라, 나는 여호수아처럼, 이제 나아가노라

To give it into Israel's hand.

그 땅을 이스라엘의 손에 넘겨주기 위하여.
