Trout
송어를 노래함
by Seamus Heaney (1939–2013)
번역(transl.): 김종인(Zong-in Kim)
통/통한 몸통으로 아치다리 밑 수심 깊은 데서 어슬렁대거나
물목 좁은 통로를 버터 바른 듯 매끄럽게 빠져나가는 (녀석)...
Hangs, a fat gun-barrel,
deep under arched bridges
or slips like butter down
the throat of the river.
자두 껍질인 듯 말랑/말랑한 살갗 가진 녀석 물속 깊은 데서
황소눈알대가리로 풀(/수초)씨앗/나방류 덮쳐 씨 말려버리고
From the depths smooth-skinned as plums
his muzzle gets bull’s eye;
picks off grass-seed and moths
that vanish, torpedoed.
물 흐름 순탄하여 얕아진 자갈바닥 물목 지날 때면 몸을
뉘인 자세로 하얀 뱃살 드러내 쓴 살같이 (퍼덕이며) 나아가지...
Where water unravels
over gravel-beds he
is fired from the shallows
white belly reporting
추적자인 양 돌진하다 돌들 사일 지날 땐 되 튕겨오는 탄환처럼
하나 지침 없이 돌 사일 총알 같이 빠져나가는 냉수성 물고기(/동물)
일렬로 떼 지어
물살 거슬러 올라...
flat; darts like a tracer-
bullet back between stones
and is never burnt out.
A volley of cold blood
ramrodding the current.

----(코멘트1):
.... Not only metaphor and simile, but sentence structure and word order also shed light on the violence towards the animal. With enjambment, the double meaning appears, not only to show the derailment of communication, but also to evoke sympathy from the poem. ...

.... Another metaphor is “his muzzle gets bull’s eye”. We often state muzzle as in the end of a gun and associate bull’s eye with a bow and arrow two lethal weapons. Also it indicates the fish is very precise and accurate making it seem more fatal and powerful. ...
