“Christmas won’t be Christmas without any presents,” grumbled Jo, lying on the rug.
“선물이 없으면 크리스마스가 아니잖아.” 조는 양탄자에 누워 투덜거렸다.
“It’s so dreadful to be poor!” sighed Meg, looking down at her old dress.
“가난한 건 정말 끔찍해!” 메그는 낡은 드레스를 내려다보며 한숨을 쉬었다.
“I don’t think it’s fair for some girls to have plenty of pretty things, and other girls nothing at all,” added little Amy, with an injured sniff.
"어떤 여자아이들은 예쁜 물건이 많은데, 다른 여자아이들은 아무것도 없는 건 공평하지 않다고 생각해요." 어린 에이미가 상처받은 듯 코를 훌쩍이며 덧붙였다.
“We’ve got Father and Mother, and each other,” said Beth contentedly from her corner.
“우리에겐 아버지와 어머니, 그리고 서로가 있어요.” 베스가 자기 자리에서 만족스럽게 말했다.
The four young faces on which the firelight shone brightened at the cheerful words, but darkened again as Jo said sadly, “We haven’t got Father, and shall not have him for a long time.”
불빛이 비추던 네 아이의 얼굴은 즐거운 말에 밝아졌지만, 요가 슬프게 “우리는 아버지가 안 계시고, 오랫동안 아버지를 뵐 수 없을 거예요.”라고 말하자 다시 어두워졌습니다.
She didn’t say “perhaps never,” but each silently added it, thinking of Father far away, where the fighting was.
그녀는 “아마 결코 그럴 수 없을 거예요”라고 말하지는 않았지만, 각자는 멀리 전쟁터에 계신 아버지를 생각하며 마음속으로 그렇게 덧붙였습니다.
Nobody spoke for a minute; then Meg said in an altered tone, “You know the reason Mother proposed not having any presents this Christmas was because it is going to be a hard winter for everyone; and she thinks we ought not to spend money for pleasure, when our men are suffering so in the army.
잠시 아무도 말을 하지 않았습니다. 그러자 메그가 목소리를 바꿔 말했습니다. “어머니께서 이번 크리스마스에 선물을 하지 말자고 하신 이유는 모두에게 힘든 겨울이 될 것이기 때문입니다. 어머니는 우리 남자들이 군대에서 고통받고 있는데 우리가 즐거움을 위해 돈을 써서는 안 된다고 생각하십니다.”
We can’t do much, but we can make our little sacrifices, and ought to do it gladly.
우리가 할 수 있는 일은 많지 않지만, 작은 희생은 할 수 있고, 기꺼이 해야 합니다.
