But the little old woman walked up to Dorothy, made a low bow and said, in a sweet voice:

그런데 그 작은 노파가 도로시에게 다가와 깊이 허리를 굽혀 인사하고는 달콤한 목소리로 말했습니다.

"You are welcome, most noble Sorceress, to the land of the Munchkins.

"고귀하신 마법사님, 먼치킨의 나라에 오신 것을 환영합니다.

We are so grateful to you for having killed the Wicked Witch of the East, and for setting our people free from bondage."

동쪽의 사악한 마녀를 물리치시고 우리 백성들을 속박에서 해방시켜 주신 것에 깊이 감사드립니다."

Dorothy listened to this speech with wonder.

도로시는 이 말을 들으며 어리둥절해했습니다.

What could the little woman possibly mean by calling her a sorceress, and saying she had killed the Wicked Witch of the East?

이 작은 여인이 자신을 마법사라고 부르고, 동쪽의 사악한 마녀를 죽였다고 말하는 것은 도대체 무슨 뜻일까요?

Dorothy was an innocent, harmless little girl, who had been carried by a cyclone many miles from home; and she had never killed anything in all her life.

도로시는 순수하고 해를 끼칠 줄 모르는 어린 소녀로, 회오리바람에 휩쓸려 집에서 수십 킬로미터 떨어진 곳까지 날려온 것이었습니다. 그녀는 살면서 아무것도 죽인 적이 없었습니다.

But the little woman evidently expected her to answer; so Dorothy said, with hesitation, "You are very kind, but there must be some mistake.

하지만 그 작은 여인은 분명히 그녀의 대답을 기다리고 있었습니다. 그래서 도로시는 망설이며 말했습니다. "정말 친절하시지만, 뭔가 오해가 있으신 것 같아요.

I have not killed anything."

저는 아무것도 죽이지 않았어요."

"Your house did, anyway," replied the little old woman, with a laugh, "and that is the same thing.

"어쨌든 댁의 집이 그랬잖아요," 작은 노파가 웃으며 대답했습니다. "그건 마찬가지예요.

See!" she continued, pointing to the corner of the house.

보세요!" 그녀는 집의 모퉁이를 가리키며 계속 말했습니다.

"There are her two feet, still sticking out from under a block of wood."

"저기 그 마녀의 두 발이 아직도 나무 덩어리 밑에서 삐져나와 있잖아요."

Dorothy looked, and gave a little cry of fright.

도로시가 바라보고는 작은 비명을 질렀습니다.

There, indeed, just under the corner of the great beam the house rested on, two feet were sticking out, shod in silver shoes with pointed toes.

과연, 집이 얹혀 있는 큰 들보의 모퉁이 바로 아래에서, 뾰족한 앞코가 달린 은빛 구두를 신은 두 발이 삐져나와 있었습니다.

"Oh, dear! Oh, dear!" cried Dorothy, clasping her hands together in dismay.

"오, 이런! 오, 이런!" 도로시는 두 손을 마주 잡으며 당혹스럽게 외쳤습니다.

"The house must have fallen on her. Whatever shall we do?

"집이 그 마녀 위로 떨어진 게 틀림없어요. 우리 어떻게 해야 하죠?
