겁 없이 밤길을 거니는 나그네여 내 말 좀 들어보오 나뭇잎 동동 띄운 물 한 잔 마시며 잠시 쉬어 가오

Dear fearless traveler strolling by night / Listen to my words please / While drinking a cup of water brewing with floating leaves / Take a break tr inspiration credit. + own take

#at first you got woven song by ólafur arnalds and while there are vocals on this one they're non-lyrical ones hfbshqk #so this song!!! it's a horror song based on the changgwi tale #a changgwi being the ghost of someone who tried to hunt a tiger and got bitten instead #then the changgwi tries to lure and hunt other humans #all that under the service of the tiger who bit them #here the narrator of the song is a changgwi trying to lure the listener #so ideally you would need all the lyrics to follow the story shfbjhfl #the only complete translation i found is. not entirely satisfying but it does the job #just know that i have a file open with the translation and doing my stuff on the side hjbgsjlfl #i don't have time rn but. yes. #anyway i really really really love this song!!!! it mixes instruments from various traditions #both western/east-asian and traditional/modern instruments #it's really fun to listen to it must be one of my favourite songs actually #i do love some storytelling jkshbfjqblq #anyway!!!!!! thank you misa!!!! <3 #okay i changed of mind the translation is Not It and i have to rewrite this entirely #i don't have time to do more than a passage #also reminder that to do this i am jongling bewteen dictionaries and helpful websites for the korean grammar #this is far from being perfect but that's all i can currently give #i know i lack a lot but also. yeah. #if someone who studied korean could throw in their grain of salt i'd be grateful
