This is a Korean lullaby that my mom used to sing to me as a child. It is still one of my favorite songs of all time and has the most beautiful melody. I used to sing this to Gemma all the time, but for the last few weeks, she's been crying every time i sing this song. I don't know if she realizes the sadness of the lyrics or just the melody sounds sad to her, but it's really kinda amusing to see her burst into tears whenever I sing this song.
this is a beautiful viola version of the song. The lyrics are translated as follows:
when mother goes diving to harvest oysters
the baby is left at home alone to watch the house
but then he falls asleep listening to the lullaby sung by the waves of the ocean
enjoy.
