The Angel in the House — Page 9

English → Korean Book I. Level 7/10

Our lifted lives at last shall touch

우리의 고양된 삶은 마침내 닿으리니

That happy goal to which they move;

그것들이 향해 나아가는 저 행복한 목표에;

Until we find, as darkness rolls

우리가 발견할 때까지, 어둠이 걷히고

Away, and evil mists dissolve,

사라지며, 악한 안개가 흩어지면,

That nuptial contrasts are the poles

혼인의 대조가 바로 극축임을

On which the heavenly spheres revolve.

천상의 구체들이 그 위를 선회하는.

II.

_Love at Large_.

_광대한 사랑_.

Whene'er I come where ladies are,

내가 숙녀들이 있는 곳에 이를 때면,

How sad soever I was before,

그 전에 아무리 슬펐다 하더라도,

Though like a ship frost-bound and far

마치 서리에 묶여 멀리 떨어진 배처럼

Withheld in ice from the ocean's roar,

바다의 포효로부터 얼음 속에 갇혀,

Third-winter'd in that dreadful dock,

그 끔찍한 항구에서 세 번째 겨울을 나며,

With stiffen'd cordage, sails decay'd,

굳어버린 밧줄과 썩어가는 돛을 달고,

And crew that care for calm and shock

평온함과 충격을 아랑곳하지 않는 선원들과 함께

Alike, too dull to be dismay'd,

한결같이, 너무 무감각하여 낙담조차 않는,

Yet, if I come where ladies are,

그러나, 내가 숙녀들이 있는 곳에 이르면,

How sad soever I was before,

그 전에 아무리 슬펐다 하더라도,

Then is my sadness banish'd far,

그때 나의 슬픔은 멀리 사라지고,

And I am like that ship no more;

나는 더 이상 그 배와 같지 않으리;

Or like that ship if the ice-field splits,

혹은 빙원이 갈라진다면 그 배처럼,

Burst by the sudden polar Spring,

갑작스러운 극지방의 봄에 의해 터져,

And all thank God with their warming wits,

모두가 따뜻해지는 정신으로 신께 감사하며,

And kiss each other and dance and sing,

서로 입 맞추고 춤추며 노래하고,

And hoist fresh sails, that make the breeze

새 돛을 올려, 산들바람이

Blow them along the liquid sea,

그들을 넘실대는 바다 위로 불어가게 하며,

Out of the North, where life did freeze,

삶이 얼어붙었던 북녘에서 벗어나,

Into the haven where they would be.

그들이 있고자 하는 항구 안으로.

III.

_Love and Duty_.

_사랑과 의무_.

Anne lived so truly from above,

앤은 너무도 진실되게 고결한 삶을 살았기에,

She was so gentle and so good,

그녀는 너무도 온화하고 너무도 선하여,

That duty bade me fall in love,

의무가 나에게 사랑에 빠지라 명하였으니,

And 'but for that,' thought I, 'I should!'

그리고 '그것이 아니더라도,' 나는 생각했다, '나는 그래야 했으리!'

I worshipp'd Kate with all my will,

나는 온 의지를 다해 케이트를 숭배하였으니,

In idle moods you seem to see

한가로운 기분에는 그대도 보는 듯하리라

A noble spirit in a hill,

언덕 속에 깃든 고귀한 정신을,

A human touch about a tree.

나무에서 느껴지는 인간적인 손길을.

IV.

_A Distinction_.

_하나의 구분_.
