Abstract
French missionary Dallet (1874) wrote in his book that ancient Chinese people used ‘The thousand character essay’ for instructing Chinese character for their children. The thousand character essay is called in Korea as ‘Tcheonzamun’ (Han, 1583). Several researchers tried to translate Tcheonzamun poem (Park et al., 2021a). A Tcheonzamun poem is composed of 16 letters (Park et al., 2021b). The present researcher will try to translate a poem of (Tcheonzamun 625th-640th). There are two translating methods. One is through the meaning of Chinese character, and the other is through Korean pronunciation of Chinese character on Tcheonzamun poem. Here, in the present research, the method through the meaning of Chinese character was used. The pronunciation of Chinese character is taken from the somewhat old Tcheonzamun book (Han, 1583) in the present research. This is the translation of a Tcheonzamun poem, and the range of this study is (Tcheonzamun 625th-640th). The title of this study is ‘Where should we be in Sunday (from the parole of Father Seongmin Michael Hong) (Tcheonzamun 625th-640th)’. The theme of this poem might be as follows. 629-632 鷄(Kye) 田(Dyeon) 赤(Zyeog) 城(Syeong). My husband! It is not the wild goose but the hen (鷄)! Even in the vacant (赤) and big castle (城), the hen diligently takes the food, gets rid of the feces from the body, and brings the chicken in the barren field. During this process the soil becomes better and better (田), and the people can grow the good agricultural crops here. And the conclusion is the simple word of wife. “My husband! Only on the ground of working diligently, you can have the good hope for the future!”.
