Post-334: The Path to Greatness...

3/23/2016

I have decided to translate a second short poem by Korean Roh-Hae Park (박노해) (See Post-#333.)


우리는 위대한 일을 하는 것이 아니라
위대한 사랑으로 작은 일을 하는 것
작지만 끝까지 꾸준히 밀어가는 것
그것이야말로 가장 위대한 삶의 길이다.

(박노해)

Not through great deeds,
Rather through small deeds of great love
Loyally performed till the last.
Thus is the path to true greatness in life.

(Roh-Hae Park)

Google says it appears several hundred times in (the original) Korean online, but as best as I can tell it is the first time that a translation appears in English.

Park became a professional photographer following his release from prison. Another of his photos at the current exhibition in Seoul:
