LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING

In Hong Kong in 1949, Mark Elliott is an American reporter covering the Chinese civil war. Undergoing a trial separation from his wife, he meets the beautiful Dr. Han Suyin, a widowed physician from mainland China. As the pair fall in love, they encounter disapproval from both her family and his friends about their interracial romance. Although the film was a commercial success upon release, the casting of Jones in an Asian role has since been criticized.

 

Love Is A Many Splendored Thing

 

Love is a many splendored thing
사랑은 많은 찬란한 것

It's the April rose that only grows in the early Spring
초봄에만 피어나는 4월의 장미

Love is nature's way of giving a reason to be living
사랑은 살아야 할 이유를 주는 자연의 방식
The golden crown that makes a man a king
사람을 왕으로 만드는 황금 왕관

 

Once on a high and windy hill, In the morning mist
한때 높고 바람 부는 언덕에 아침 안개 속에서

Two lovers kissed and the world stood still
두 연인이 키스하자 세상은 멈추었고

Then your fingers touched my silent heart and taught it how to sing
그때 너의 손가락이 내 고요한 마음을 어루만지며 노래하는 법을 가르쳤어
Yes, true love's a many splendored thing
예, 진정한 사랑은 많은 찬란한 것
