The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were—

Pada zaman dahulu ada empat ekor Kelinci kecil, dan nama-nama mereka adalah—

Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter.

Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, dan Peter.

They lived with their Mother in a sand-bank, underneath the root of a very big fir-tree.

Mereka tinggal bersama Ibu mereka di sebuah gundukan pasir, di bawah akar sebatang pohon cemara yang sangat besar.

'Now my dears,' said old Mrs. Rabbit one morning, 'you may go into the fields or down the lane, but don't go into Mr. McGregor's garden: your Father had an accident there; he was put in a pie by Mrs. McGregor.'

'Nah, anak-anakku,' kata Ibu Kelinci tua pada suatu pagi, 'kalian boleh pergi ke padang atau menyusuri jalan setapak, tetapi jangan masuk ke kebun Tuan McGregor: Ayah kalian mengalami kecelakaan di sana; ia dimasukkan ke dalam pai oleh Nyonya McGregor.'

'Now run along, and don't get into mischief. I am going out.'

'Sekarang berlarilah, dan jangan berbuat nakal. Ibu akan pergi.'

Then old Mrs. Rabbit took a basket and her umbrella, and went through the wood to the baker's. She bought a loaf of brown bread and five currant buns.

Kemudian Ibu Kelinci tua mengambil keranjang dan payungnya, dan berjalan melewati hutan menuju toko roti. Ia membeli sepotong roti cokelat dan lima kue kismis.

Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail, who were good little bunnies, went down the lane to gather blackberries:

Flopsy, Mopsy, dan Cotton-tail, yang merupakan kelinci-kelinci kecil yang baik, pergi menyusuri jalan setapak untuk memetik buah blackberry:

But Peter, who was very naughty, ran straight away to Mr. McGregor's garden, and squeezed under the gate!

Tetapi Peter, yang sangat nakal, langsung berlari menuju kebun Tuan McGregor, dan menyelinap di bawah pintu gerbang!

First he ate some lettuces and some French beans; and then he ate some radishes;

Pertama ia memakan beberapa selada dan kacang buncis; kemudian ia memakan beberapa lobak;

And then, feeling rather sick, he went to look for some parsley.

Dan kemudian, karena merasa agak mual, ia pergi mencari peterseli.

But round the end of a cucumber frame, whom should he meet but Mr. McGregor!

Namun di sekitar ujung rangka mentimun, siapa yang ia temui selain Tuan McGregor!

Mr. McGregor was on his hands and knees planting out young cabbages, but he jumped up and ran after Peter, waving a rake and calling out, 'Stop thief!'

Tuan McGregor sedang berlutut di atas tangan dan lututnya menanam kubis muda, tetapi ia melompat berdiri dan berlari mengejar Peter, sambil mengayunkan garu dan berteriak, 'Hentikan pencuri itu!'

Peter was most dreadfully frightened; he rushed all over the garden, for he had forgotten the way back to the gate.

Peter sangat ketakutan; ia berlari ke sana kemari di seluruh kebun, sebab ia telah lupa jalan kembali ke gerbang.

He lost one of his shoes among the cabbages, and the other shoe amongst the potatoes.

Ia kehilangan salah satu sepatunya di antara tanaman kubis, dan sepatu yang lain di antara tanaman kentang.

After losing them, he ran on four legs and went faster, so that I think he might have got away altogether if he had not unfortunately run into a gooseberry net, and got caught by the large buttons on his jacket. It was a blue jacket with brass buttons, quite new.

Setelah kehilangan sepatunya, ia berlari dengan empat kaki dan berlari lebih cepat, sehingga saya rasa ia mungkin bisa lolos sepenuhnya jika ia tidak, secara tidak beruntung, berlari masuk ke dalam jaring gooseberry, dan tersangkut pada kancing-kancing besar di jaketnya. Itu adalah jaket biru dengan kancing kuningan, yang masih baru.

Peter gave himself up for lost, and shed big tears; but his sobs were overheard by some friendly sparrows, who flew to him in great excitement, and implored him to exert himself.

Peter menganggap dirinya sudah tamat, dan meneteskan air mata besar; tetapi isak tangisnya terdengar oleh beberapa burung pipit yang ramah, yang terbang mendatanginya dengan sangat gembira, dan memohon agar ia berusaha keras.

Mr. McGregor came up with a sieve, which he intended to pop upon the top of Peter; but Peter wriggled out just in time, leaving his jacket behind him.

Tuan McGregor datang membawa saringan, yang ia maksudkan untuk ditutupkan pada Peter; tetapi Peter berhasil meloloskan diri tepat pada waktunya, meninggalkan jaketnya di belakang.

And rushed into the tool-shed, and jumped into a can. It would have been a beautiful thing to hide in, if it had not had so much water in it.

Dan berlari masuk ke gudang perkakas, dan melompat ke dalam sebuah kaleng. Itu akan menjadi tempat persembunyian yang bagus, seandainya tidak berisi begitu banyak air.

Mr. McGregor was quite sure that Peter was somewhere in the tool-shed, perhaps hidden underneath a flower-pot. He began to turn them over carefully, looking under each.

Tuan McGregor sangat yakin bahwa Peter berada di suatu tempat di gudang perkakas, mungkin bersembunyi di bawah sebuah pot bunga. Ia mulai membalik pot-pot itu dengan hati-hati, memeriksa di bawah masing-masing.

Presently Peter sneezed—'Kertyschoo!' Mr. McGregor was after him in no time.

Tak lama kemudian Peter bersin—'Hatchi!' Tuan McGregor langsung mengejarnya seketika itu juga.

And tried to put his foot upon Peter, who jumped out of a window, upsetting three plants. The window was too small for Mr. McGregor, and he was tired of running after Peter. He went back to his work.

Dan mencoba menginjak Peter dengan kakinya, tetapi Peter melompat keluar dari sebuah jendela, menjatuhkan tiga tanaman pot. Jendela itu terlalu kecil untuk Tuan McGregor, dan ia sudah lelah mengejar Peter. Ia kembali ke pekerjaannya.

Peter sat down to rest; he was out of breath and trembling with fright, and he had not the least idea which way to go. Also he was very damp with sitting in that can.

Peter duduk untuk beristirahat; ia terengah-engah dan gemetar ketakutan, dan ia sama sekali tidak tahu ke arah mana harus pergi. Ia juga sangat basah karena duduk di dalam kaleng itu.

After a time he began to wander about, going lippity—lippity—not very fast, and looking all round.

Setelah beberapa saat ia mulai berkeliaran, berjalan pelan-pelan—tidak terlalu cepat—sambil melihat ke segala arah.

He found a door in a wall; but it was locked, and there was no room for a fat little rabbit to squeeze underneath.

Ia menemukan sebuah pintu di sebuah tembok; tetapi pintu itu terkunci, dan tidak ada ruang bagi kelinci kecil yang gemuk untuk menyelinap di bawahnya.

An old mouse was running in and out over the stone doorstep, carrying peas and beans to her family in the wood. Peter asked her the way to the gate, but she had such a large pea in her mouth that she could not answer. She only shook her head at him. Peter began to cry.

Seekor tikus tua sedang berlari keluar masuk melewati anak tangga batu di depan pintu, membawa kacang polong dan buncis untuk keluarganya di hutan. Peter bertanya kepadanya arah menuju gerbang, tetapi ia memiliki sebutir kacang polong yang begitu besar di mulutnya sehingga ia tidak dapat menjawab. Ia hanya menggelengkan kepalanya kepada Peter. Peter mulai menangis.

Then he tried to find his way straight across the garden, but he became more and more puzzled. Presently, he came to a pond where Mr. McGregor filled his water-cans. A white cat was staring at some gold-fish, she sat very, very still, but now and then the tip of her tail twitched as if it were alive. Peter thought it best to go away without speaking to her; he had heard about cats from his cousin, little Benjamin Bunny.

Kemudian ia mencoba mencari jalannya lurus melintasi kebun, tetapi ia menjadi semakin bingung. Tak lama kemudian, ia sampai di sebuah kolam tempat Tuan McGregor mengisi kaleng-kaleng airnya. Seekor kucing putih sedang menatap beberapa ikan mas, ia duduk sangat, sangat diam, tetapi sesekali ujung ekornya bergerak-gerak seolah hidup. Peter merasa lebih baik pergi tanpa berbicara dengannya; ia pernah mendengar tentang kucing dari sepupunya, Benjamin Bunny kecil.

He went back towards the tool-shed, but suddenly, quite close to him, he heard the noise of a hoe—scr-r-ritch, scratch, scratch, scritch. Peter scuttered underneath the bushes. But presently, as nothing happened, he came out, and climbed upon a wheelbarrow and peeped over. The first thing he saw was Mr. McGregor hoeing onions. His back was turned towards Peter, and beyond him was the gate!

Ia kembali menuju gudang perkakas, tetapi tiba-tiba, sangat dekat dengannya, ia mendengar suara cangkul—krek-rrek, gores, gores, krek. Peter buru-buru bersembunyi di bawah semak-semak. Namun tak lama kemudian, karena tidak terjadi apa-apa, ia keluar, dan memanjat ke atas gerobak dorong lalu mengintip. Hal pertama yang ia lihat adalah Tuan McGregor sedang mencangkul bawang. Punggungnya membelakangi Peter, dan di seberangnya adalah gerbang!

Peter got down very quietly off the wheelbarrow; and started running as fast as he could go, along a straight walk behind some black-currant bushes.

Peter turun dengan sangat pelan dari gerobak dorong; dan mulai berlari secepat mungkin, menyusuri jalan lurus di belakang beberapa semak kismis hitam.

Mr. McGregor caught sight of him at the corner, but Peter did not care. He slipped underneath the gate, and was safe at last in the wood outside the garden.

Tuan McGregor melihatnya di sudut, tetapi Peter tidak peduli. Ia menyelinap di bawah gerbang, dan akhirnya selamat di hutan luar kebun.

Mr. McGregor hung up the little jacket and the shoes for a scare-crow to frighten the blackbirds.

Tuan McGregor menggantung jaket kecil dan sepatu-sepatu itu sebagai orang-orangan sawah untuk menakuti burung-burung hitam.

Peter never stopped running or looked behind him till he got home to the big fir-tree.

Peter tidak pernah berhenti berlari atau menoleh ke belakang sampai ia tiba di rumah, di pohon cemara besar itu.

He was so tired that he flopped down upon the nice soft sand on the floor of the rabbit-hole and shut his eyes. His mother was busy cooking; she wondered what he had done with his clothes. It was the second little jacket and pair of shoes that Peter had lost in a fortnight!

Ia begitu lelah sehingga ia rebah di atas pasir lembut yang nyaman di lantai lubang kelinci dan menutup matanya. Ibunya sedang sibuk memasak; ia bertanya-tanya apa yang telah dilakukan Peter dengan pakaiannya. Itu adalah jaket kecil dan sepasang sepatu kedua yang telah dihilangkan Peter dalam dua minggu!

I am sorry to say that Peter was not very well during the evening.

Saya menyesal mengatakan bahwa Peter tidak begitu sehat sepanjang malam itu.

His mother put him to bed, and made some camomile tea; and she gave a dose of it to Peter!

Ibunya membaringkannya di tempat tidur, dan membuat teh kamomil; dan ia memberikan satu dosis teh itu kepada Peter!

'One table-spoonful to be taken at bed-time.'

'Satu sendok makan diminum pada waktu tidur.'

But Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail had bread and milk and blackberries for supper.

Namun Flopsy, Mopsy, dan Cotton-tail makan malam dengan roti dan susu serta buah blackberry.
