Song to Offer Wine, 권주가.


Song to Offer Wine,
 권주가
 





Have some, have some
Have a cup of this wine
This wine is not wine
This wine is our mother’s tears
This wine is our father’s sweat
Don’t say it’s bitter or sweet
Have a taste with your heart
Don’t be sad
The Myeongsasibri rose buds fall
When spring arrives next year
you will bloom once again
Our pitiful life
is like a floating rootless weed

Have some, have some
Have a cup of this wine
The Paulownia tree
in the bright fall moon
reminds me of my wife
and saddens me
Does my wife think of me?
Or am I alone in this thought?
In the morning’s cold frost,
the wild goose cries and leaves
I hope for news of my wife
The overflowing clouds
are empty of noise
