The Road Not Taken 가지 않은 길 - Robert Frost

The Road Not Taken : 가지 않은 길

Robert Frost

 

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, 노란 숲속의 두 갈래 길

And sorry I could not travel both 내가 두 길 모두를 갈 수 없음에 애석한 마음을 갖노라.

And be one traveler, long I stood 한 길을 택한 나는 오랫동안 우두커니 서서,

And looked down one as far as I could  저 아래 숲으로 굽어진 곳 까지 

To where it bent in the undergrowth; 내려다 볼 수 있는데 까지 내려다 보았노라.

 

Then took the other, as just as fair, 그리고 똑같이 아름다운 다른 길을 택하였는 바,

And having perhaps the better claim, 아마도 내가 더 원하였던 것일 지도 모르노니,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 그 길은 풀이 많고 길을 내야 되기 때문이었노라.

Though as for that the passing there 그길을 걸으므로,

Had worn them really about the same, 그 길도 다른 길과 같아질지라도..

 

And both that morning equally lay 그 날 아침 두 길에는

In leaves no step had trodden black. 누구도 낙옆을 밟은 흔적은 없었노라.

Oh, I kept the first for another day! 오! 나는 다음을 위하여 한 길을 택하였노라.

Yet knowing how way leads on to way, 길은 또 다른 길로 잇어져 있으니,

I doubted if I should ever come back. 내가 다시 돌아올 수 있을지 의문을 간진한채..

 

I shall be telling this with a sigh 훗날 아주 훗날 어디선가

Somewhere ages and ages hence:  한숨 쉬며 이야기 할지도 모르겠노라.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— 숲 속의 두 갈래 길과 나.

I took the one less traveled by, 나는 사람이 적게 다닌 길을 택하였고,

And that has made all the difference. 그리고 그 것 때문에 모든 것이 달라졌다고...
