Poems #2

(I tried to make the translation line-for-line…but there’s some that don’t line up exactly 100%...and certain translations were modified to make more English *sense*)

사람과 사람 사이엔
작은 문이 하나 있어요.
감히 들어 갈 수도 없고
잘 열리지도 않았어요.
사랑을 알게 되면서
조금씩 열려지는 마음의 문에
당신이 차지 하고 있는
공간은 전부가 되어 버렸어요.
삶이 힘드신가요?
살아가는 즐거움을 잊으셨나요?

힘들어 하지 마세요.
당신 손을 잡고 있는 내가 있잖아요.
외로워마세요.
당신 곁엔 내가 있잖아요.
힘을 내세요
잡은 손 절대로 놓지 않아요.
쓸쓸해 하지 마세요.
당신 안에 내가 있으니까요.
당 신은
언제나 행복하세요.
행복해 하는 당신을 보면
나 또한 행복해 질 수 있으니까요.

Between two people,
There's a small door.
It’s not possible to force your way through,
And it’s not one that opens easily.
As you learn about love,
You find that the door between hearts is one that opens slowly;
The space that you take up
Grows to become everything.
Is life difficult?
Has living lost its joy?

Don't be hard on yourself.
I'm right here holding your hand.
Don't be lonely
I'm right here right beside you.
Be strong.
Don't let go of my hand.
Don't be grief-stricken,
Because I'm there with/inside you
You should
Always happy.
So when I look at your happy face,
I can be happier too.

세상에 완벽한 남자와
완벽한 여자는없다.
모자라는 남자와
모자라는 여자가 만들어가는
완벽한 사랑만이 있을뿐이다.

In this world, there's no such thing as the perfect guy.
And there's no such thing as the perfect girl.
But only a less than perfect guy
And a less than perfect girl can make
a perfect love.
