The Real Mother Goose — Page 15
RAIN
비
Rain, rain, go away,
비야, 비야, 저리 가라,
Come again another day;
다른 날에 다시 와라;
Little Johnny wants to play.
꼬마 조니가 놀고 싶대.
THE CLOCK
시계
There's a neat little clock,--
단정한 작은 시계가 있어,--
In the schoolroom it stands,--
교실에 서 있지,--
And it points to the time
그리고 시간을 가리키지
With its two little hands.
두 개의 작은 바늘로.
And may we, like the clock,
우리도 시계처럼,
Keep a face clean and bright,
얼굴을 깨끗하고 밝게 유지하며,
With hands ever ready
언제나 준비된 손으로
To do what is right.
옳은 일을 하기를.
WINTER
겨울
Cold and raw the north wind doth blow,
차갑고 매서운 북풍이 불어오고,
Bleak in the morning early;
이른 아침은 황량하기만 해;
All the hills are covered with snow,
모든 언덕이 눈으로 덮여 있고,
And winter's now come fairly.
이제 겨울이 완연히 찾아왔네.
FINGERS AND TOES
손가락과 발가락
Every lady in this land
이 나라의 모든 숙녀는
Has twenty nails, upon each hand
스무 개의 손톱을 가지고 있으니, 각 손에
Five, and twenty on hands and feet:
다섯 개씩, 손과 발에 스물씩:
All this is true, without deceit.
이 모든 것이 거짓 없이 사실이라네.
A SEASONABLE SONG
제철의 노래
Piping hot, smoking hot.
펄펄 끓고, 김이 모락모락.
What I've got
내가 가진 것을
You have not.
너는 갖지 못했지.
Hot gray pease, hot, hot, hot;
뜨거운 회색 완두콩, 뜨겁고, 뜨겁고, 뜨거워;
Hot gray pease, hot.
뜨거운 회색 완두콩, 뜨거워.
DAME TROT AND HER CAT
트롯 부인과 그녀의 고양이
Dame Trot and her cat
트롯 부인과 그녀의 고양이는
Led a peaceable life,
평화로운 삶을 살았지,
When they were not troubled
그들이 시달리지 않을 때는
With other folks' strife.
다른 이들의 다툼으로.
When Dame had her dinner
부인이 저녁을 먹을 때면
Pussy would wait,
고양이는 기다렸고,
And was sure to receive
어김없이 받곤 했지
A nice piece from her plate.
부인의 접시에서 맛있는 한 조각을.
THREE CHILDREN ON THE ICE
얼음 위의 세 아이
Three children sliding on the ice
세 아이가 얼음 위에서 미끄럼을 타고 있었네
Upon a summer's day,
한여름의 어느 날,
As it fell out, they all fell in,
그런데 마침, 모두 빠져버렸고,
The rest they ran away.
나머지 아이들은 달아나 버렸네.
Oh, had these children been at school,
아, 이 아이들이 학교에 있었더라면,
Or sliding on dry ground,
혹은 마른 땅에서 미끄럼을 탔더라면,
Ten thousand pounds to one penny
일 페니에 만 파운드를 걸어도
They had not then been drowned.
그들은 익사하지 않았을 텐데.
