The Metamorphosis / 変身

The light of the electric tram lay pale here and there on the ceiling and on the higher parts of the furniture 電車の明かりが天井や家具の高いところのあちこちに淡く灯っていた。 but down at Gregor's level it was dark しかしグレゴールの階下では暗かった He slowly pushed himself towards the door to see what had happened there 彼はそこで何が起こったのかを見るためにゆっくりとドアの方へ進みました he was still clumsy with his feelers, which he only now learned to appreciate 彼はまだ触覚が不器用だったが、今になってようやくその価値を知った。 His left side seemed to have one long, unpleasantly tight scar 彼の左側には長くて不快なほどきつい傷跡が一つあるようだった and he had to literally limp on his two rows of legs そして彼は文字通り二列の足を引きずって歩かなければならなかった Incidentally, one of the legs had been seriously injured during the morning's incidents ちなみに、午前中の事件で片方の足が重傷を負っていた。 it was almost a miracle that only one of his legs was injured 片足だけが負傷したのは奇跡に近い and he dragged his leg lifelessly そして彼は力なく足を引きずった Only when he reached the door did he realize what had actually lured him there ドアに着いて初めて、彼は自分がそこに誘い込まれた本当の理由に気づいた。
