＜ENDURE＞ FOUR - 윤동재 시인의 ＜견딤＞

[김문철]

Endure

by D.J. Yoon

I

Blazing, scorching sun

Ah, it's hot ah, it's hot

The bunch of grapes is burning

But they have to endure the scorching sun

Hesitating hesitating

To fill up on sweetness

A bitter, cold wind

Oh, it's cold oh, it's cold

It feels like her skin is being cut open

But she has to endure the bitter cold

Jujube tree jujubes

Each one bears fruit

II

Blazing blazing summer sun
Ah, it’s hot! I want to run!
Grapes feel like they’re in a fire
Still they hold their sweet desire
Wait a bit, don’t stop, don’t shake
Sugar grows for sweetness’ sake

Bitter bitter winter breeze
Brr, I’m cold! I start to freeze!
Sharp as knives, it cuts the tree
Still she stands so patiently
Jujube tree, brave as can be
Fruits hang bright for all to see

견딤

-윤동재

쨍쨍 뙤약볕

앗, 뜨거워 앗, 뜨거워

포도송이 달구지만

뙤약볕을 견뎌야

주저리주저리

단맛 꽉꽉 채우지

쌩쌩 찬바람

어, 추워 어, 추워

살을 엘 듯하지만

매서운 추위 견뎌야

대추나무 대추 알

알알이 열매 맺지

ENDURE

Appreciation Reivew 感想

‘Endure’ is a simple and beautiful poem for children.

It shows two strong things in nature: grapes under a very hot sun and a jujube tree in a very cold wind.

Both are suffering, but they keep going and do not give up.

The grapes stay on the vine and slowly become sweet.

The jujube tree stands still and keeps making fruit, even in the freezing wind.

The repeated lines like “Ah, it’s hot!” and “Oh, it’s cold!” make the poem lively and easy to remember.

The rhyming version is also fun to read aloud like a chant.

Overall, this poem teaches children an important lesson: if we endure hard times, good things will come in the end.

“힘든 시간을 견디면 반드시 좋은 결과가 온다”는 소중한 메시지를 따뜻하게 전해 줍니다.^_^

If we endure hard times, good things will come in the end.
