CHOIR[kw i r] - 합창단
|
They're called bui-doi
|
The dust of life
|
* dust - 먼지, 가루, 쓰레기, 하찮은 것
|
Conceived in hell
|
* hell - 지옥, 고통 * conceive - 느끼다, 상상하다
|
And born in strife
|
* strife - 투쟁, 싸움
|
They are the living reminders
|
* reminder - 생각나게 하는 사람[것]
|
Of all the good we failed to do
|
We can't forget
|
Must not forget
|
That they are all our children too

JOHN
|
Like all survivors, I once thought
|
When I'm home I won't give a damn
|
* don't give a damn - 조금도 개의치 않다 * damn - 비난[저주]하다
|
But now I know I'm caught
|
I'll never leave Vietnam
|
War isn't over when it ends
|
Some pictures never leave your mind
|
They are the faces of the children
|
The ones we left behind
|
They're called bui-doi
|
The dust of life
|
Conceived in hell
|
And born in strife
|
They are the living reminders
|
Of all the good we failed to do
|
|
That's why we know
|
* That's why - 그래서, 그런 이유로
|
Deep in our hearts
|
That they are all our children too
|
These kids hit walls on every side
|
They don't belong in any place
|
Their secret they can't hide
|
It's printed on their face
|
I never thought one day I'd plead
|
* plead - 변호[변론]하다, 탄원하다
|
For half-breeds from a land that's torn
|
* half-breed - 혼혈아
|
But then I saw a camp for children
|
Whose crime was being born
|
They're called bui-doi
|
The dust of life
|
Conceived in hell
|
And born in strife
|
We owe them fathers, and a family
|
* owe - 빚지고 있다, (어떤 감정을) ∼에게 품고있다
|
And loving homes they never knew
|
Because we know
|
Deep in our hearts
|
* deep - ((부사))
|
That they are all our children too
|
These are souls in need
|
* in need - 곤궁에 처해 있는
|
They need us to give
|
Someone has to pay
|
For their chance to live CHORUS
|
Help me tryThey're called bui-doi
|
The dust of life
|
Conceived in hell
|
|
