그대 영혼의 언어를 말해요
마음의 리듬을 가지고 있어요
그대 미소의 이유예요
누구의 목소리인가요?
그 하나의 목소리...
그대 눈을 빛나게 해요
삶의 모든 순간도 밝혀요
그대에게 새로운 희망 줘요
누구의 목소리인가요?
Meaningful English Translation:
That one voice...
That speaks the language of your soul
That has the rhythm of your heart
That is the reason behind your smile
Whose voice is that?
That one voice...
That brightens up your eyes
And every moment of your life
That gives you new hope
Whose voice is that?

A little back story and Gratitude:
Our eyes are the mirror of our soul. Similarly, I think, voice is its signature. That is probably why voices have a connect with souls just like eyes. While writing "The Voices", I realized there are different aspects of a voice that I wanted to portray. And thus, this piece was born.
I was not sure if I should attempt writing it in Korean. My love for the language made me write it. However, I was still unsure of posting it as it was rusty. Thanks to my teacher/guide, who immensely helped me in giving me the much needed confidence to post this piece. Yoon 선생님 has always been very supportive. There are not enough words to show my gratitude.
Thank you so much Yoon 선생님 for always helping me.
Beautiful indeed! Please keep writing!
ReplyDeleteLet time tell us whose voice is that!?
