[Ralph Waldo Emerson] 「From Each And All」 (2026.03.29.)

[행복한동행]

From Each And All





All are needed by each one,

Nothing is fair or good alone.

I thought the sparrow's note from heaven,

Singing at dawn on the alder bough;

I brought him home in his nest at even;?

He sings the song, but it pleases not now;

For I did not bring home the river and sky;

He sang to my ear; they sang to my eye.

The delicate shells lay on the shore;

The bubbles of the latest wave

Fresh pearls to their enamel gave;

And the bellowing of the savage sea

Greeted their safe escape to me;

I wiped away the weeds and foam,

And fetched my sea-born treasures home;

But the poor, unsightly, noisome things

Had left their beauty on the shore

With the sun, and the sand, and the wild uproar.

바다와 조개 - Ralph Waldo Emerson  

아름다운 조개는

바닷가에 있고 

파도의 거품이 

조개 속 진주를 반짝이게 했다 

나는 그 바다의 보물을 

집으로 가지고 왔다 

그러나 그것은 초라하고 

보기 싫은 하찮은 물건이었다 

왜냐하면 그것은 태양과 모래와 

파도소리와 함께 

바닷가에 그것의 

아름다움을 두고 왔기에
