영시 문복산에서 보내는 편지 9

 

Four Seasons

--- Letter from Mt. Munbok 9

 

Written by D.H. Lee

 

You could tell the difference clearly here,

'Cause boards of seasons are distinct.

 

You could feel the coming of cheerful spring,

'Cause breeze waves against your cheek softly.

 

You could hear the passing of sizzling summer,

'Cause all insects are crying day and night.

 

You could see the vain falling of autumn.

'Cause leaves are flying here and there.

 

You could realize the deepening of winter,

'Cause daytime has shortened on frozen earth.
