If you reach out your hand,
the tree lowers its head.
the tree never tries to talk to anyone.
The wind blows and asks how he is doing.
Even if the sun comes closer and shines a shadow, he does not answer.
He knows it will be only a while.
The friend that the tree was waiting for came and looked at the tree.
let’s all lean on each other and sing this song together.”
The tree was also listening.
The tree raised his head up and looked at the sky.
The sky that enfolds everyone was smiling there.
The tree opened up his chest wide and stretched his arms high as if to be embraced in her arms.
“You were by my side within reach.”
the tree felt tears run down his cheeks.
이 노래의 원제목은 '눈물을 먹고 자라는 나무'이다.
울창한 잎으로 그늘을 만들어 따가운 햇살을 막아주던 여름
찬란한 색을 띄우며 하나씩 거리로 잎이 떨어져내리던 가을
그리고 앙상한 가지들만 남아 차가운 바람을 꿋꿋이 버텨내는 겨울
햇살, 바람, 하늘, 지나치는 사람들 이 모든 것을 바라보고 또 받아들이면서
우리는 알지 못하게 그 뿌리를 더 단단하고 넓게 자라내고 있었는지도 모른다.
이 노래는 자신이 알지 못할 정도로 많이 무너져 있을 때 그 곁에 늘 있어주었던 존재들과
순간을 깨닫게 되면서 자라나는 어떤 나무의 이야기한다.
한순간의 작은 위로가 행동이 되고 또 그것으로 치유되고 성장하는 우리들의 이야기다.
The original title for this song was 'The tree that grows with tears'.
Trees seem to look the same and as if they are always there.
However, they may be deepening and broadening out their roots while they accept everything such as sunshine, wind, sky, and even people.
This song is about a tree that became able to see things that were not seen before.
The tree realizes that these things were always by his side although they come and go at times.
He just did not know it because he collapsed deeply in grief.
It is also the story of us who grow up through small moments of solace and action that heal us.
