짧은 날의 노래

밤이 온다

아, 여기는

무인도다

붉은 살갗

푸른 핏줄

다 벗고서

너울 너울

돌아 누운

내 여자의

숨소리에

맞춰 추는

이 짧은 춤!

A Short Day's Song

The Night returns and falls

on all that belongs to me

upon my family's eyes,

upon my lustful sea

It tucks them all in dreams

but shakes me up instead

On this deserted island

where none befriends my bed

I dance alone undressed

Disrobe my flesh and veins

remove these reds and blues

though asleep my wife remains

I synchronize my mime

to her breaths, while I compose

this fearless dance of mine

a careless glance of time
