선민 - The Rose

The rose -Bette Midler


Some say love it is a river

sarangiran gangmuliragodo hajyo
that drowns the tender reed

yeonyakhan galdaereul samkyeobeorineun
Some say love it is a razer

sarangeun myeondonal gatdagodo hajyo
that leaves your soul to bleed

yeonghoneul pi heulridorok naebeoryeo dugehaneun

Some say love it is a hunger

sarangeun gumjurimeuro gadeukhan
an endless aching need

kkeuteopneun yeolmangiragodo hajyo
I say love

naneun ireotge malhageteoyo
It is a flower and you it's only seed

sarangiran hansongi kkotigo dangsineun ssiatirago

It's the heart afraid of breaking

maeume sangcheoipneun geoti duryeoumyeon
that never learns to dance

jeoldae chumchuneun geoteul baeuji mothaeyo
It's the dream afraid of waking

kkumeseo kkaeeonaneun geoti duryeoumyeon

that never takes the chance

jeoldae gihoereul japji mothaeyo
It's the one who won't be taken

namege batgireul geobuhaneun sarameun
who cannot seem to give

namege jujido mothapnida.
and the soul afraid of dying

jukgireul duryeowohaneun yeonghoneun

that never learns to live

jeoldae saneunbeopeul baeul su eopeoyo

When the night has been too lonely

neomu sseulsseulhan bameul bonaego
and the road has been too long

meolgo heomhan gileul geoleowateulttae
and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong

dangsineun sarangiran danji unjoteun saramina ganginhan saramina haneungeoteuro saenggakhaetjyo


Just remember

geureona gieokhaseyo

in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows ies the seed the sun's love

gyeoului maeseoun nundeomi sokeseodo ttangsokeneun taeyangui sarangeul batneun ssiati itgo
in the spring becomes the rose

bomi doemyeon geugeoti jangmiga doel geotiraneun geoteulyo
