광막한 광야에 달리는 인생아
너의 가는 곳 그 어데이냐
쓸쓸한 세상 험악한 고해에
너는 무엇을 찾으려 하느냐

웃는 저 꽃과 우는 저 새들이
그 운명이 모두 다 같구나
삶에 열중한 가련한 인생아
너는 칼 우(위)에 춤추는 자도다
-
Life running in the vast wilderness
Where is it that you are heading?
In this lonely world, filled with cruel suffering
What are you looking for?

Those smiling flowers and crying birds
All share the same fate
Pitiful life, absorbed in living,
You are the one, dancing on the blade.
