Translation of the song 하얀 손수건 artist Nana Mouskouri

헤어지자 보내온 그녀의 편지 속에

Inside her letter that she sent saying goodbye

곱게 접어 함께 부친 하얀 손수건

there was folded nicely an old white handkerchief

고향을 떠나올 때 언덕에 홀로 서서

while I was leaving my hometown, she stood alone on that hill

눈물로 흔들어 주던 하얀 손수건

waving the full of tears white handkerchief

그때의 눈물 자욱 사라져 버리고

the tears of that time vanished and

흐르는 내 눈물이 그 위를 적시네

my flowing tears wet the handkerchief

헤어지자 보내온 그녀의 편지 속에

Inside her letter that she sent saying goodbye

곱게 접어 함께 부친 하얀 손수건

there was folded nicely an old white handkerchief

고향을 떠나올 때 언덕에 홀로 서서

while I was leaving my hometown, she stood alone on that hill

눈물로 흔들어 주던 하얀 손수건

waving the full of tears white handkerchief

그때의 눈물 자욱 사라져 버리고

the tears of that time vanished and

흐르는 내 눈물이 그 위를 적시네

my flowing tears wet the handkerchief
