Down By The Salley Gardens

 

by William Butler Yeats

 

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.

 

In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

 

 

버드나무 정원을 지나 내 사랑과 나는 만났어요.
그녀는 눈처럼 흰 작은 발로 버드나무 동산을 건넜지요.
그녀는 나뭇잎 나무에서 자라듯 사랑을 느긋하게 하라 했지만
난 젊고 어리석어 그녀의 말 들으려 하지 않았어요.

 

시냇가 어느 들녘에 내 사랑과 나는 서 있었어요.
그녀는 눈처럼 흰 손을 내 기울인 어깨에 얹었지요.
그녀는 풀들이 둑에서 자라듯 인생을 느긋하게 살라했지만
난 젊고 어리석었고 이제야 온통 눈물로 가득하네요.
