The road, I go alone

Ingee Kim

There is a road

I must go along, until sundown

Even if I have to go alone.

The road, I have to go

Whether in loneliness, or in fear.

The road, I have to go

Whether in heat, or in thirst.

The road, I have to go

Whether in harsh rain, or a snowstorm.

Despite the distance and the harshness,

Despite the difficulties and the sufferings,

There is a road, I have to go along by all means.

There is a quiet village of relief

On the foot of the mountain of eternity,

Which would welcome the tired footstep of the long journey.

That is the road that I have to go along, until sundown

Even if I go alone.

홀로 가는 길

김 인기

해 저물 때까지

혼자서라도 가야만 하는

길이 있습니다.

외롭고 두렵다 하여도

가야만 하는 길

무더위 목마름 있다 하여도

가야만 하는 길

멀고 험하다 하여도

힘들고 고되다 하여도

기어이 가야만 하는 길이 있습니다.

영원의 산 기슭에는

먼 길에 지친 발걸음 반겨줄

조용한 안식의 마을이 있어

해 저물 때까지

혼자서라도 가야만 하는 길이 있습니다.

The Road I Go, Alone

Ingee Kim's Poem of Quiet Strength

Henry Crawford

Going Alone

Last week I had the pleasure of representing Forest Woods Media Productions at the celebration of the anthology, Songs in a Second Language at the DC Arts Club. I concluded my discussion of my role as book manager with a reading of one of the poems from the book, Ingee Kim’s, The Road, I Go Alone.

Reading Ingee’s poem inspired me to create a video poem of the work. Poems are, firstly, scripts for a performance. That’s the way they’ve been in the West since Homer. Like the ancients, today we can add music, in this case a solo trumpet with cinematic backing. For visuals, I added a stock footage montage.

I hope you enjoy my experimentation with these short videos in Everyday Poet. For me, it’s a way of heightening the emotional intensity of a poem.
