떠나보내다

하나 둘 별이지던 그 밤 넌 거기 있었지
한 줌의 바람처럼 금새 사라질 듯 했었네
눈으로 건네던 말 대신 넌 웃고있었고
기나긴 침묵의 틈새로 나는 울고있었지
넌 물었지 세상의 끝은 어디있냐고
그곳에 기다리면 언젠가 날 볼 수 있냐고
난 알았네 세상의 끝은 죽음이란걸
하지만 나는 말해주었네
그곳은 아마도 별이 지지 않을거라
조금씩 햇살이 스며와 난 눈을 감았고
그대로 모른척 영원히 잠이 들고싶었지
조용히 다독이던 손길 바람이 었을까
문득 두눈을 떴을때 이미 너는 없었지
넌 물었지 시간의 끝은 어디 있냐고
수없이 많이 날이 지나면 날 볼수있냐고
난 알았네 내일은 오지 않을거란걸
하지만 나는 말해주었네
그때엔 아마도 별이 지지 않을거라

Saying Goodbye

That night when stars were twinkling, one by one, you were there
You seemed like a handful of wind, about to disappear in an instant
Instead of words spoken with your eyes, you were smiling
And I was crying through the gaps of the protracted silence
You asked, "Where is the end of the world?"
And asked if I'd see you again if I waited there
I knew then, the end of the world was death
But I told you,
That perhaps the stars won't set there
Sunlight peeked in little by little, and I closed my eyes
And wished to fall asleep forever, pretending not to know
Was it the wind, gently caressing my hand?
When I suddenly opened my eyes, you were already gone
You asked, "Where is the end of time?"
And asked if I'd see you again after countless days had passed
I knew then, that tomorrow wouldn't come
But I told you,
That perhaps the stars won't set then either
