병실에서
오늘도 나는 수갑을 차고
죄수복을 입고 병원복도를
거닐고 있다
In the hospital ward
Today, once again I wear handcuffs,
Clad in a prisoner’s uniform,
I wander the hospital corridors.

오늘도 나는 수갑을 차고
죄수복을 입고 병원복도를
거닐고 있다
Today, once again I wear handcuffs,
Clad in a prisoner’s uniform,
I wander the hospital corridors.

내 손가락에는
아버지의 반지가 끼워져 있다
멋지고 값비싸서
끼고 다니는 것이 아니다
아버지가 돌아가시고
나는 끼고 싶지 않았다
하지만, 어머니의
강력한 권유로 끼게 되었다
아버지의 삶은
공무원 퇴직 후 30여 년을
보험 대리점을 하셨다
성실하셨던 아버지의 삶을
나도 살기를 어머니는 바라셨나 보다

On my finger
is my father’s ring.
I don’t wear it
because it is fine or expensive.
After my father passed away,
I did not want to wear it.
But at my mother’s
strong urging, I put it on.
After retiring from civil service,
my father spent some thirty years
running an insurance agency.
My mother must have hoped
that I would live a life as faithful
as my father’s.
