Part-time Jobby 명순이딸

 

 


My mother allowed me to enter university to study
After having toiled so much

Yet I was not even able to get a job
Because I studied something mediocre,

Having majored in history, a hopeless department.

Already 9 years have passed

Since I married and gave birth to three children

Starting today, the third and youngest

Is going into kindergarten

When I finally got a chance

To read the Word at church freely after having swam,

A call rings in

I got a part-time job

I can happily celebrate now

Celebrate this happy occasion


Although my mother toiled with all her effort

to have me study


I now work part-time

As an assistant and a cleaner

At a byeongsul(auxiliary) kindergarten.


Hurray

Even though I like it

Because it will earn me money for my kid’s snacks,

I will be showered with curses

When my mother

Hears this news

It has already been a long time

Since I’ve come out of school.

I am 41.

It is to do what really matters

There is no such thing as pride or ego now


A life could do such a thing

To disappoint a mother and

Feel sorry…


However,

There is one thing that Mother does not know

Mom, I am employed in Heaven

Jewels pour down upon me everyday

And I want to repay all your hard and toilsome work


I can be responsible for you, mother
Please look at me, this unfaithful daughter,

After having thrown away the standards of the world

My eternal part-time job in Heaven, that will never fire me

I have not studied in vain, have I?
I surely have not.

The Lord made me study,

Made me study for a long, long time

After having known how unintelligent brain was

Now I am a respectable worker at a part-time job

The Lord has granted me a spot to work

So I will work while being thankful and obeying.
