Teardrop
By Kim, Pil-Young
Incorruptible spring water pooled in hearts
Hotter than any heart and clearer than the dew
A jewel that cannot be received without the truth
God gave beautiful eyes,
So that could see dazzling love
When couldn’t control delight,
Made drown in a lake
When couldn’t look at sadness,
Made the river flow
***
눈물
김필영
가슴 속에 고여 있던
부패되지 않는 샘물
심장보다 뜨겁고 이슬보다 맑아
진실이 아니고서는 받아낼 수 없는 보석
눈부신 사랑을 확인할 수 있도록
고운 눈동자를 주신 신께서는
기쁨을 주체할 수 없을 때
호수에 잠기게 하시더니
슬픔을 바라볼 수 없을 때
강물이 흐르게 하시더이다.
