IfYouForgetMe/PabloNeruda

이거하나는알아둬

너도어떤지알지.
서서히찾아드는가을의붉은나뭇가지에걸린
수정같은달이
내창가에비칠때,
불가까운곳
잡을수없는재에손을댈때,
장작나무거친껍질에손을댈때,
향기,빛,쇳덩어리,
존재하는이모든것들이
마치
나를기다리는당신의섬을향해항해하는
조그만돛단배들인것처럼
내마음을너에게데려가버리고만다는것을.
Well,now,

forIshallalreadyhaveforgottenyou.
그러나만약
조금씩조금씩이라도네마음내게서멀어지면
나또한조금씩조금씩네게서멀어져야겠지.
행여갑자기
나를잊어버린다면
나를찾지마라,
그때이미난너를잊었을것이다.

내인생을뚫고지나가는깃발의이바람이
길고도미친광풍이라생각하며
내뿌리내린마음의해변가에
나를버려두고떠나기로네가마음먹는다면
기억해
바로그날
바로그순간에
나는손을들어포기하고
내뿌리는다른대지를찾아
떠날것이다.

그러나매일매일
시시각각
너의운명은나라는생각이들면
견딜수없는달콤함으로
매일같이꽃이
