A certain king had a beautiful garden, and in the garden stood a tree which bore golden apples.

어떤 왕에게 아름다운 정원이 있었는데, 그 정원에는 황금 사과가 열리는 나무가 서 있었습니다.

These apples were always counted, and about the time when they began to grow ripe it was found that every night one of them was gone.

이 사과들은 항상 세어 보았는데, 익기 시작할 무렵에는 매일 밤 하나씩 없어지는 것이 발견되었습니다.

The king became very angry at this, and ordered the gardener to keep watch all night under the tree.

왕은 이에 몹시 화가 나서 정원사에게 나무 아래에서 밤새도록 지키라고 명령했습니다.

The gardener set his eldest son to watch; but about twelve o’clock he fell asleep, and in the morning another of the apples was missing.

정원사는 맏아들에게 망을 보게 하였더니, 정오쯤에 잠이 들었고, 아침에 보니 사과 하나가 없어져 있었다.

Then the second son was ordered to watch; and at midnight he too fell asleep, and in the morning another apple was gone.

그러자 둘째 아들이 깨어 지키라는 명령을 받았는데, 한밤중에 그도 잠이 들었고, 아침에 보니 사과 하나가 사라져 있었다.

Then the third son offered to keep watch; but the gardener at first would not let him, for fear some harm should come to him: however, at last he consented, and the young man laid himself under the tree to watch.

그때 셋째 아들이 망을 보겠다고 하였습니다. 그러나 정원사는 처음에 그에게 무슨 해가 생길까 두려워 허락하지 않았습니다. 그러나 마침내 허락했고, 그 젊은이는 나무 아래에 누워 망을 보았습니다.

As the clock struck twelve he heard a rustling noise in the air, and a bird came flying that was of pure gold; and as it was snapping at one of the apples with its beak, the gardener’s son jumped up and shot an arrow at it.

시계가 열두 시를 치자 그는 공중에서 바스락거리는 소리를 들었고, 순금으로 된 새 한 마리가 날아왔습니다. 그 새가 부리로 사과 하나를 쪼아 먹고 있을 때, 정원사의 아들이 뛰어올라 화살을 쏘았습니다.

But the arrow did the bird no harm; only it dropped a golden feather from its tail, and then flew away.

그러나 화살은 새에게 아무런 해를 끼치지 못했습니다. 다만 새는 꼬리에서 금빛 깃털 하나를 떨어뜨리고 날아갔습니다.
