"I Wonder If I’m Growing" by Raffi
I wonder if I'm growing
I wonder if I'm growing
My mom says yes I'm growing
But it's hard for me to see
My mom says eat your sandwich
It'll make you grow up tall
But when I eat my sandwich
I'm hardly bigger at all
And I wonder if I'm growing
I wonder if I'm growing
My mom says yes I'm growing
But it's hard for me to see
My mom says wash you hands now
Then you can go and play
Hey, I can reach the tap now
For the very first time today
And I think I must be growing
Oh I know I'm really growing
My mom says yes I'm growing
And now I know it's true.
Raffi 아저씨(?)가 부르는 이 노래를 듣고 있으면 ...
"엄마, 난 언제 엄마만큼 아빠만큼 커요?"라고 묻는 꼬마의 똘망똘망한 표정이 떠오르고,
"밥을 잘 먹고 신나게 놀면 금방 큰단다." 라고 웃으며 대답하는, 자상한 엄마 목소리가 들리는 듯하고,
"엄마, 엄마, 내가 혼자서 수돗물을 틀었어요."라며 폴짝거리는 아이의 모습이 떠오른다.
그런데, 글로 옮겨놓으니 노래의 느낌이 안 사네 ... ^^;
