Weekly Danso (단소) Performance




노들강변 (On the banks of river No-Dul)


A folk song from Korea's Kyeonggi province (source Naver).  It conveys the nostalgia one feels over the passage of time through the river flowing by.  One source of music for 단소 is 이생강 민속악 단소교본.  For those who can read Korean, I have posted the first verse of the song below.



노들강변 봄버들 휘휘 늘어진 가지에다가
무정세월 한허리 칭칭 동여 메여나볼가
에헤요 봄버들도 못믿으리로다
흐르는 저기 저물만 흘러 흘러서 가노라.
