The Ballad of the White Horse — Page 5

English → Korean Preface Level 7/10

Lady, by one light only

귀부인이여, 오직 하나의 빛으로

We look from Alfred's eyes,

우리는 앨프레드의 눈으로 바라보나니,

We know he saw athwart the wreck

우리는 그가 폐허를 가로질러 보았음을 알고,

The sign that hangs about your neck,

당신의 목에 걸린 그 표징을,

Where One more than Melchizedek

멜기세덱보다 더 위대한 분이

Is dead and never dies.

죽으셨으나 결코 죽지 않으시는 곳을.

Therefore I bring these rhymes to you

그러므로 나는 이 시들을 당신께 바치나니,

Who brought the cross to me,

내게 십자가를 가져다 준 당신께,

Since on you flaming without flaw

흠 없이 불꽃처럼 빛나는 당신 위에서

I saw the sign that Guthrum saw

나는 구스룸이 보았던 그 표징을 보았으니,

When he let break his ships of awe,

그가 경외의 배들을 부수도록 내버려 두었을 때,

And laid peace on the sea.

그리고 바다 위에 평화를 놓았을 때.

Do you remember when we went

우리가 떠났던 때를 기억하는가,

Under a dragon moon,

용의 달 아래를,

And 'mid volcanic tints of night

그리고 밤의 화산 빛깔 속에서

Walked where they fought the unknown fight

알 수 없는 싸움을 벌였던 곳을 걸었고,

And saw black trees on the battle-height,

전쟁터 높은 곳에서 검은 나무들을 보았고,

Black thorn on Ethandune?

에탄던의 검은 가시나무를?

And I thought, "I will go with you,

그리고 나는 생각했노라, "나는 당신과 함께 가리라,

As man with God has gone,

사람이 하느님과 함께 갔듯이,

And wander with a wandering star,

그리고 방랑하는 별과 함께 떠돌리라,

The wandering heart of things that are,

존재하는 것들의 방랑하는 심장,

The fiery cross of love and war

사랑과 전쟁의 불타는 십자가,

That like yourself, goes on."

당신처럼, 계속 나아가는."

O go you onward; where you are

오 앞으로 나아가라; 당신이 있는 곳에는

Shall honour and laughter be,

명예와 웃음이 있으리니,

Past purpled forest and pearled foam,

자줏빛 숲과 진주 빛 물거품을 지나,

God's winged pavilion free to roam,

자유로이 떠도는 하느님의 날개 달린 천막,

Your face, that is a wandering home,

방랑하는 고향인 당신의 얼굴,

A flying home for me.

나를 위한 날아다니는 고향.

Ride through the silent earthquake lands,

고요한 지진의 땅들을 달려 지나라,

Wide as a waste is wide,

황무지처럼 넓고 넓은,

Across these days like deserts, when

사막 같은 이 날들을 가로질러, 그때

Pride and a little scratching pen

교만과 조그만 긁적이는 펜이

Have dried and split the hearts of men,

사람들의 마음을 메마르게 하고 갈라놓았을 때,

Heart of the heroes, ride.

영웅들의 심장이여, 달려라.
