A doubt if it be Us
by Emily Dickinson
A doubt if it be Us
Assists the staggering Mind
In an extremer Anguish
Until it footing find.
An Unreality is lent,
A merciful Mirage
That makes the living possible
While it suspends the lives.
stagger: 비틀[휘청]거리게 하다
anguish: (극심한) 비통
mirage: 신기루
정말 우리일까란 의구심은
극도로 비통할 때
흔들리는 심정에 도움이 된다
안정을 찾을 때까지.
빌려온 비현실은,
자비의 신기루
이것으로 삶이 지탱된다
목숨을 부지하는 동안.
<번역: 中昰>
중하,
아름다운 시, 깊고 맑은 번역 실어주어 고맙게 보네.
"A doubt if it be Us" 이것이 정말 우리일까?
七旬의 風霜을 살아온 우리, 이제 그냥
"찡"하며 느껴지는 삶의 信仰, 거리의 傳說이 아닐까?
좋은 시, 좋은 번역 많이 올려주시게나.
