The Angel in the House — Page 11

English → Korean Book I. Level 7/10

'Ah, whence to-day's so sweet release,

'아, 오늘의 이 달콤한 해방은 어디서 왔는가,

This clearance light of all my care,

나의 모든 근심을 밝히는 이 빛,

This conscience free, this fertile peace,

이 자유로운 양심, 이 풍요로운 평화,

These softly folded wings of prayer,

이 부드럽게 접힌 기도의 날개들,

'This calm and more than conquering love,

'이 평온하고 정복을 초월한 사랑,

With which nought evil dares to cope,

그 앞에 어떤 악도 감히 맞서지 못하는,

This joy that lifts no glance above,

위를 올려다보지 않는 이 기쁨,

For faith too sure, too sweet for hope?

희망보다 더 확실하고 더 달콤한 믿음을 위해?

'O, happy time, too happy change,

'오, 행복한 시간, 너무나 행복한 변화여,

It will not live, though fondly nurst!

애틋하게 길러도 오래 살지 못하리!

Full soon the sun will seem as strange

머지않아 태양도 낯설게 느껴지리,

As now the cloud which seems dispersed.'

지금 흩어진 듯 보이는 구름처럼.'

She from a rose-tree shook the blight;

그녀는 장미나무에서 병충해를 털어냈고;

And well she knew that I knew well

그리고 그녀는 내가 잘 알고 있음을 잘 알았다

Her grace with silence to requite;

그녀의 우아함에 침묵으로 보답하는 법을;

And, answering now the luncheon bell,

그리고 이제 오찬 종소리에 답하며,

I laugh'd at Mildred's laugh, which made

나는 밀드레드의 웃음에 함께 웃었으니, 그 웃음은

All melancholy wrong, its mood

모든 우울한 슬픔을 사라지게 했고, 그 분위기는

Such sweet self-confidence display'd,

그토록 달콤한 자신감을 드러냈으며,

So glad a sense of present good.

현재의 선함에 대한 그토록 기쁜 감각을 보여주었다.

I laugh'd and sigh'd: for I confess

나는 웃고 한숨지었으니: 고백하건대

I never went to Ball, or Fête,

나는 무도회나 축제에 간 적이 없었으니,

Or Show, but in pursuit express

혹은 공연에도, 오직 분명한 추구 속에서만,

Of my predestinated mate;

나의 운명으로 정해진 짝을 찾기 위해;

And thus to me, who had in sight

그리하여 나에게는, 눈앞에 두고 있던 자에게,

The happy chance upon the cards,

패에 적힌 행복한 기회를,

Each beauty blossom'd in the light

모든 아름다움은 그 빛 속에서 피어났다

Of tender personal regards;

부드러운 개인적 애정의 빛 속에서;

And, in the records of my breast,

그리고 내 가슴의 기록 속에,

Red-letter'd, eminently fair,

붉은 글씨로 새겨진, 뛰어나게 아름다운,

Stood sixteen, who, beyond the rest,

열여섯 명이 서 있었으니, 그들은 다른 이들보다,

By turns till then had been my care:

그때까지 번갈아가며 나의 마음을 차지했다:

At Berlin three, one at St.

베를린에서 셋, 성 모처에서 하나.
