Try to remember
the kind of September
when life was slow
and oh, so mellow.
Try to remember
the kind of September
when grass was green
and grain was yellow.
Try to remember
the kind of September
when you were
a tender and callow fellow,
Try to remember and
if you remember then follow.
Try to remember
when life was so tender
that no one wept
except the willow.
Try to remember
when life was so tender
that dreams were kept
beside your pillow.
Try to remember
when life was so tender
that love was
an ember about to billow.
Try to remember
and if you remember
then follow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
although you know
the snow will follow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
without the hurt
the heart is hollow.
Deep in December
it's nice to remember
the fire of September
that made us mellow.
Deep in December
our hearts should remember
and follow.
9월을 기억해 보세요.
삶에 여유가 있고
달콤했던 때를.
9월을 기억해 보세요.
초원은 푸르고
곡식이 누렇게
익어가던 때를.
9월을 기억해 보세요.
당신이 여리고
풋풋했던 때를.
만약 기억한다면,
그 기억을
따라가 보세요
순조로운 삶 속에,
버드나무만 빼고는
아무도 슬퍼하지 않았던 때를
기억해 보세요
부드러운 삶에,
당신의 베개 맡에
꿈을 간직했던 때를
기억해 보세요
포근한 삶 속에
사랑의 불씨가
울렁이던 때를
기억해 보세요
만약 기억한다면,
그 기억을 따라 가세요
12월이 무르익으면
눈이 올거라는 걸
당신도 알지만,
회상하기엔 좋아요.
12월이 무르익으면
마음이 공허했던 때를
아픔없이
회상하기에 좋아요.
12월이 무르익으면
우리를 감미롭게 해줬던
9월의 열정을
회상하기에 좋아요
12월이 무르익으면,
우리 마음속의 기억을
떠올리고,
그 기억을 따라가세요
