War and Peace — Page 7
Do you know I am dissatisfied with your younger son?
당신 아드님 중 작은 아들에게 제가 불만을 품고 있다는 걸 아세요?
Between ourselves" (and her face assumed its melancholy expression), "he was mentioned at Her Majesty's and you were pitied...."
우리끼리 얘기지만" (그녀의 얼굴이 우울한 표정을 띠며), "황후 폐하의 자리에서 그 아이 이야기가 나왔고, 당신은 동정을 받았답니다...."
The prince answered nothing, but she looked at him significantly, awaiting a reply.
공작은 아무 대답도 하지 않았지만, 그녀는 의미심장하게 그를 바라보며 대답을 기다렸다.
He frowned.
그는 眉間을 찌푸렸다.
"What would you have me do?" he said at last.
"제가 어떻게 하길 바라시는 겁니까?" 그가 마침내 말했다.
"You know I did all a father could for their education, and they have both turned out fools.
"제가 그 아이들 교육을 위해 아버지로서 할 수 있는 모든 것을 다 했다는 걸 아시잖습니까, 그런데 둘 다 바보가 되어버렸어요.
Hippolyte is at least a quiet fool, but Anatole is an active one.
이폴리트는 그나마 조용한 바보지만, 아나톨은 활동적인 바보입니다.
That is the only difference between them."
그게 둘 사이의 유일한 차이점이지요."
He said this smiling in a way more natural and animated than usual, so that the wrinkles round his mouth very clearly revealed something unexpectedly coarse and unpleasant.
그는 평소보다 더 자연스럽고 생기 있는 미소를 지으며 이렇게 말했는데, 그 탓에 입가의 주름이 뜻밖에도 거칠고 불쾌한 무언가를 매우 뚜렷하게 드러냈다.
"And why are children born to such men as you?
"당신 같은 사람에게 왜 자식이 태어나는 걸까요?
If you were not a father there would be nothing I could reproach you with," said Anna Pávlovna, looking up pensively.
당신이 아버지가 아니었다면 제가 당신을 나무랄 것이 아무것도 없었을 텐데요," 안나 파블로브나가 생각에 잠긴 듯 눈을 들며 말했다.
"I am your faithful slave and to you alone I can confess that my children are the bane of my life.
"저는 당신의 충실한 종이며, 오직 당신에게만 제 아이들이 제 삶의 재앙이라는 것을 고백할 수 있습니다.
It is the cross I have to bear.
그것이 제가 져야 할 십자가입니다.
That is how I explain it to myself.
저는 그렇게 스스로에게 설명하고 있습니다.
It can't be helped!"
어쩔 수 없는 일이지요!"
He said no more, but expressed his resignation to cruel fate by a gesture.
그는 더 이상 아무 말도 하지 않고, 몸짓으로 냉혹한 운명에 대한 체념을 표현했다.
Anna Pávlovna meditated.
안나 파블로브나는 골똘히 생각에 잠겼다.
"Have you never thought of marrying your prodigal son Anatole?" she asked.
"방탕한 아드님 아나톨을 결혼시킬 생각을 해보신 적은 없으신가요?" 그녀가 물었다.
