On the Day of the New Beginning of My Home Country

 

Opening the Door to My Strong Home Country

by Jean Jiyoung Lee

Let your long-lost inner light shine

Wake up and stay woke from dark torpor

Prayers for those in pain are yours and mine

Heart-wrenching memories will stay where they were

It will be all right to find yourself supine

As long as you get up and go tomorrow as a warrior

Pat on your back and be on cloud nine

The wintry chill in the past would rather feel like warmer

When upslopes batter your spirits down, just say you’ll be fine

As you feel connected to your strength, curveballs are no longer a torture

Now laugh out loud and give a smile so divine

The moon rabbits would greet you back in your dreams tonight with rice cake from their mortar

Blessing is another word for fine

The bitter past was only a blessing in disguise ‘cause your new era will be a perfect restorer

Raise your glass of wine

Time to live your life on the solid anchor
