I heard this poem being read in Korean, the author's native language and wanted to read the English version.
Evocation by Sowol Kim
A name shattered to pieces
A name shattered in the void
A name that never replies
A name that I'll die calling
The one word left in the soul
To the last I couldn't pronounce.
My beloved
My beloved
The red sun hovers over the hill
And the deer moan woefully
I'm calling your name
On a lonely hill
I call your name in great sorrow
I call your name in deep sorrow
My voice reaches towards the sky
But the sky is too far from the earth.
Turn me into stone
I'll call your name till I die.
My beloved
My beloved
