그녀는예쁘게걸어요
조지고든바이런GeorgeGordonByron
그녀는예쁘게걸어요,구름한점없이
별총총한밤하늘처럼.
어둠과빛의그중나은것들이
그네얼굴그네눈에서만나
부드러운빛으로무르익어요,
난(亂)한낮에는보이지않는.
어둠한겹많거나빛한줄기모자랐다면
새까만머리타래마다물결치는
혹은얼굴부드럽게밝혀주는
저숨막히는우아함반이나지워졌을거예요.
밝고즐거운생각들이그얼굴에서
그곳이얼마나순결하고사랑스러운가알려줘요.
그처럼상냥하고조용하고풍부한
뺨과이마위에서
사람의마음잡는미소,환한얼굴빛은
말해줘요,선량히보낸날들을,
지상의모든것과통하는마음을,
그리고순수한사랑의피를.
