English Translation
Early in the morning, when I hear the sound of the birds chirping
As always, I reluctantly wake up
Through the window, the sunlight dazzles and shines
At the crisp air, I feel like I’m going to sneeze but I don’t
I rub my eyes and look out the window
Kids in groups of twos and threes chatter on their way to school
In father’s hands, after he returned from his walk
There’s mountain water, which I don’t really know the benefits of
I hear mother’s busy movements in the kitchen making breakfast
And the laziness of her son, looking for cold water
The fresh and clean scent of morning
Mixes with the thick scent of breakfast
Autumn morning, such a big joy to me
Autumn morning, such great happiness to me
To me, who always acted like a baby
When I took a deep breath as I looked at the blue sky
My heart becomes at rest like the high sky
When did that dragonfly come in the empty sky?
As if it’s not awake yet, it lazily spins as it buzzes
I hear mother’s busy movements while doing the laundry
The relaxed sounds of her son’s guitar playing
The wall clock makes noises whenever it’s bored
As it mixes with the sounds of my noisy nieces and nephews crying
Autumn morning, such a big joy to me
Autumn morning, such great happiness to me
To me, who always acted like a baby
Autumn morning, such a big joy to me
Autumn morning, such great happiness to me
To me, who always chased the clouds
Early in the morning, when I hear the sound of the birds chirping
As always, I reluctantly wake up
Through the window, the sunlight dazzles and shines
At the crisp air, I feel like I’m going to sneeze but I don’t
Hangul
이른 아침 작은 새들 노랫소리 들려오면
언제나 그랬듯 아쉽게 잠을 깬다
창문 하나 햇살 가득 눈부시게 비쳐오고
서늘한 냉기에 재채기할까 말까 음
눈 비비며 빼꼼히 창밖을 내다보니
삼삼오오 아이들은 재잘대며 학교 가고
산책 갔다 오시는 아버지의 양손에는
효과를 알 수 없는 약수가 하나 가득 음
딸각딸각 아침 짓는 어머니의 분주함과
엉금엉금 냉수 찾는 그 아들의 게으름이
상큼하고 깨끗한 아침의 향기와
구수하게 밥 뜸드는 냄새가 어우러진
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 기쁨이야
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 행복이야
응석만 부렸던 내겐
파란 하늘 바라보며 커다란 숨을 쉬니
드높은 하늘처럼 내 마음 편해지네
텅 빈 하늘 언제 왔나 고추잠자리 하나가
잠 덜 깬 듯 엉성히 돌기만 비잉비잉 음
토닥토닥 빨래하는 어머니의 분주함과
동기동기 기타 치는 그 아들의 한가함이
심심하면 쳐대는 괘종시계 종소리와
시끄러운 조카들의 울음소리 어우러진
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 기쁨이야
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 행복이야
응석만 부렸던 내겐
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 기쁨이야
가을 아침 내겐 정말 커다란 행복이야
뜬구름 쫓았던 내겐
이른 아침 작은 새들 노랫소리 들려오면
언제나 그랬듯 아쉽게 잠을 깬다
창문 하나 햇살 가득 눈부시게 비쳐오고
서늘한 냉기에 재채기할까 말까 음
