Chapter 2: The Spouter-Inn
Bab 2: Penginapan Spouter
The Spouter-Inn was a strange and mysterious place. The walls were covered with old paintings of whales and sailors, and the furniture was worn and dark. It felt like a place where many stories had been told and many journeys had begun.
Penginapan Spouter adalah tempat yang aneh dan misterius. Dindingnya ditutupi dengan lukisan tua paus dan pelaut, dan perabotannya usang dan gelap. Rasanya seperti tempat di mana banyak cerita telah diceritakan dan banyak perjalanan telah dimulai.
I met Queequeg that evening. He was a dark-skinned man with tattoos covering his body and a small wooden statue of his god that he carried with him everywhere. Despite his strange appearance, he had a kind and honest face.
Aku bertemu Queequeg malam itu. Dia adalah pria berkulit gelap dengan tato yang menutupi tubuhnya dan patung kayu kecil dewanya yang dia bawa ke mana-mana. Meskipun penampilannya aneh, dia memiliki wajah yang baik dan jujur.
Queequeg was a skilled harpooner who had spent many years hunting whales. He told me stories of the dangerous waters he had sailed and the magnificent creatures he had seen. I listened with fascination and felt my excitement for the voyage grow.
Queequeg adalah penombak paus yang terampil yang telah menghabiskan bertahun-tahun berburu paus. Dia menceritakan kepadaku kisah-kisah tentang perairan berbahaya yang telah dia layari dan makhluk-makhluk luar biasa yang telah dia lihat. Aku mendengarkan dengan terpesona dan merasakan kegembiraanku untuk perjalanan itu tumbuh.
