Remembrance ~ Su Shi (1037-1101)


Remembrance

To what can one compare our life on earth?
To a flock of geese
Waddling about in the snow
Leaving a faint trace of their passage.

【披著羊皮的狼】刀郎 ~~ A Wolf Covered in Sheep's Skin (Dao Lang)


【披著羊皮的狼】刀郎 ~~ A Wolf Covered in Sheep's Skin (Dao Lang)
Thanks to coffeeberry199466 English translation.
I gently come closer, afraid you’ll awake from your sweet dreams.
I only want to give you, one gentle kiss. So, don’t you worry?
I know wanting to be with you, isn’t easy.
We are from different skies and lands.
You always feel that being with me is never-ending chilling terror.
I really truly love you.
I am willing to change myself.
I’m willing to roam any desert for you.
I just ask of you not to push me away. Not to leave me.
Not to send me a frosted wintered heart.

I really truly love you.
I’m willing to change myself.
I’m willing to pretend to be someone else.
I just ask of you that you let me come closer
Let me love you.
Let me hold and cherish you.
I’ll be that one wolf who covered himself with sheep skin,
And you’ll be my precious prey,
The lamb I took away.
I’ll even abandon my pack and roam by myself.
But I just could never bare anyone else having you.
I’ll be the one who’ll stay forever by your side.
I’ll carry passion in my heart and follow you anywhere.
You make me go mad.
You make me go crazy.
My cry for you echoes throughout valleys and hills.

Perhaps in my whole life, I’ll never be able to step into yours.
But I’ll still wait my entire life. Unafraid. Just for you.
Till the sun sets on the desert, t
ill the oceans turn to dust,
I’ll endure for this love.
Perhaps in my entire life,
I’ll never be able to change the path you walk.
But I’ll still wish you a lifetime of affection.
A long as you’re able to believe that my words and my feelings,
Will never fade until the day I die.


You’re the delicate lamb in my heart as delicate as a flower.
You’re my angel.
You’re my dream.
I’ll hold you in my arms.
I’ll cradle you within me.
So our blood will become one.
You’ll see that the wolf who pretended to be someone else for you,
Is a man who is unable to let his fragile emotions show?
The amount I love you is filled with affection,
And I believe this amount of affection can definitely touch
The earth and the heavens.

You’re the delicate lamb in my heart as delicate as a flower.
You’re my angel.
You’re my dream.
I’ll hold you in my arms.
I’ll cradle you within me.
So our blood will become one.
You’ll see that the wolf who covered himself in gentle sheep skin for you,
Is a man who’s determined to change fate’s decision.
The amount I treasure this. The amount I treasure these true feelings..
I believe these true feelings are in this world.
The greatest gift of all.

Did Not ~ Thomas Moore (1779-1852)


Did Not

'Twas a new feeling--something more
Than we had dared to own before,
Which then we hid not;
We saw it in each other's eye,
And wished, in every half-breathed sigh,
To speak, but did not.

She felt my lips' impassioned touch--
'Twas the first time I dared so much,
And yet she chid not;
But whispered o'er my burning brow,
'Oh, do you doubt I love you now?'
Sweet soul! I did not.

Warmly I felt her bosom thrill,
I pressed it closer, closer still,
Though gently bid not;
Till-oh! the world hath seldom heard
Of lovers, who so nearly erred,
And yet, who did not.

Thomas Moore (1779-1852)

Love Me Love My Dog ~ Peter Shelley


Peter Shelley - Love Me Love My Dog
Freedom is a dusty road heading to a highway
Californian skyways will lead us where we wanna stay
Suddenly a summer breeze breaks a misty mornin'
There's a new day dawning we'd better be on our way.

So love me love my dog
We've lived the road too long to break up
Love me live my life and travel through this land
I can't leave a friend I promised that before we started
So love me love my dog
If you can't understand then we'll heap up land.

When I leave this town today Lord you know I'll miss you
Baby I won't kiss you. you'll only make me wanna stay

Though it's hard to say goodbye can't you see it's over
Guess I'm just a loner heading on his way.

I tell you now
Love me love my dog . . . . .
So love me love my dog
If you can't understand
Then I guess we'll have to move on out up land.

C'mon boy!

Bad Dreams: I ~ Robert Browning (1812-1889)


Bad Dreams: I
LAST night I saw you in my sleep:
And how your charm of face was changed!
I asked "Some love, some faith you keep?"
You answered "Faith gone, love estranged."

Whereat I woke--a twofold bliss:
Waking was one, but next there came
This other: "Though I felt, for this,
My heart break, I loved on the same."

Robert Browning (1812-1889)

Gaseum Apado 가슴 아파도 / 환희 (Even Though My Heart Breaks)~HwanHee and Brian G. Joo


Gaseum Apado 가슴 아파도 / 환희
03. Even though it hurts/HwanHee and Brian G. Joo
translation by: Yoonie (also credit: aheeyah.com)
Even today my heart goes to you constantly
You're dangerous, but that doesn't stop me anymore.
All day I write down my thoughts and continue tomorrow with the sorrow that fills me up again.
*Even thought it hurts I laugh like this
It's the first time my eyes have been satisfied.
My heart is swollen with the tears I've kept inside,
but if it's for you, I'll be alright...
As I'm lonier, as more tears fall, I somehow I find a sudden strength to go on.
When I'm weary from the saddness, hurt by hate, I might just have to let you go...
I already know... that my wait is going to be longer tha my life...
*Repeat
If I can't see you anymore,
I won't see anything else clearly.
The path I walk is dark whether or not I open my eyes.
I want to hold you, I want to love you
until I'm assured that my feelings won't ever change.
I'm willing to lose all my wishes,
just to have one person.
I only want this wish to come true
when it's you, I'll be happy.

가슴 아파도 / 환희

오늘 하루도 열두 번 도 더 내 마음이 다녀오네요
그대가 내게 위험하대도 이젠 멈출 수가 없어요...

종일 그려도 내일에 쓸 그리움 어제처럼 다시 남아서....

가슴 아파도 나 이렇게 웃어요
내 눈이 행복한 건 처음이니까
삼킨 눈물에 맘이 짓물러가도
그대라면 난 괜찮아요....

외로울수록 눈물날수록 알 수 없는 힘이 생겨요
슬픔에 지치면 미움에 다치면 그댈 잃을지도 몰라요....

알고 있나요...내 기다림이 훨씬 삶보다 더 길다는 것을....

가슴 아파도 나 이렇게 웃어요
내 눈이 행복한 건 처음이니까
삼킨 눈물에 맘이 짖물러가도
그대라면 난 괜찮아요....

두번 다신 그댈 볼 수 없다면
아무것도 못보게 될텐데
눈을 뜨고도 감은 것처럼 어둠 속을 걷게 될 텐데...

안고 싶어요 사랑하고 싶어요
내 품이 닳아 없어지는 날까지
남은 소원을 다 버려도 좋으니
내겐 단 한사람만
오직 이 한소원만
그대라면 난 감사해요...
