Grimms’ Fairy Tales 026 – RUMPELSTILTSKIN – 002



Then he led her to a chamber in his palace where there was a great heap of straw, and gave her a spinning-wheel, and said, ‘All this must be spun into gold before morning, as you love your life.’ It was in vain that the poor maiden said that it was only a silly boast of her father, for that she could do no such thing as spin straw into gold: the chamber door was locked, and she was left alone.

She sat down in one corner of the room, and began to bewail her hard fate; when on a sudden the door opened, and a droll-looking little man hobbled in, and said, ‘Good morrow to you, my good lass; what are you weeping for?’ ‘Alas!’ said she, ‘I must spin this straw into gold, and I know not how.’ ‘What will you give me,’ said the hobgoblin, ‘to do it for you?’ ‘My necklace,’ replied the maiden.
He took her at her word, and sat himself down to the wheel, and whistled and sang:

And round about the wheel went merrily; the work was quickly done, and the straw was all spun into gold.

When the king came and saw this, he was greatly astonished and pleased; but his heart grew still more greedy of gain, and he shut up the poor miller’s daughter again with a fresh task

    그러고 나서 그는 그녀를 자기 궁전의 방으로 데려갔다. 그곳에는 다량의 짚이 있었고, 그는 그녀에게 물레를 주면서 말했다. ‘이 모든 것을 날이 밝기 전까지 금으로 만들어야 한다. 안 그러면 목숨을 잃게 될 것이다.’

    가련한 아가씨가 그것이 단지 그녀의 아버지의 헛된 자랑에 불과하다고 이야기했지만 소용없었다. 그녀는 짚을 금으로 만들 수 없었다. 방의 문이 잠기고 그녀는 홀로 남겨졌다.

    그녀는 방의 한 구석에 앉아 자신의 불운을 한탄하기 시작했다. 그때 갑자기 문이 열리고 우스꽝스럽게 생긴 작은 남자가 절뚝거리며 들어와 말했다. ‘아침 인사 드립니다, 아가씨; 왜 울고 있죠?’

    ‘아휴!’ 그녀가 말했다. ‘이 짚을 금으로 만들어야 하는데 어떻게 해야 할지 모르겠어요.’ ‘무엇을 주겠나요,’ 호빗이 말했다. ‘이 일을 내가 해주기 위해?’ ‘제 목걸이를 드리겠어요,’ 아가씨가 대답했다.

    그는 그녀의 말을 그대로 받아들이고 물레에 앉아 휘파람을 불고 노래를 부르기 시작했다. 물레는 즐겁게 돌아갔고, 일은 금방 끝났다. 짚은 모두 금으로 변했다.
