오동추야 달이 밝아 오동동이냐
동동주 술타령이 오동동이냐
아니요 아니요
궂은 비 오는 밤 낙수물 소리
오동동 오동동 그침이 없어
독수공방 타는 간장 오동동이요

통통떠는 뱃머리가 오동동이냐
사공의 뱃노래가 오동동이냐
아니요 아니요
멋쟁이 기생들 장구소리가
오동동 오동동 밤을 새우는
한량님들 밤놀음이 오동동이요

백팔염주 경불소리 오동동이냐
똑딱쿵 목탁소리 오동동이냐
아니요 아니요
속이고 떠나가신 야속한 님을
오동동 오동동 북을 울리며
정한수에 공들이는 오동동이요

Is ODong fall night bright moon ODongDong?
Is drunken talking over DongDong liquor OdongDong?
No, no
The water drop sound on an untimely rainy night
ODongDong ODongDong ceaselessly falling
A lonely burning heart in an empty room is ODongDong.

Is the floating bow of a boat ODongDong?
Is the boatman's song ODongDong?
No, no
The drumbeat of stylish Geishas
ODongDong ODongDong all nightlong
The night play of those playboys is ODongDong.

Is the white-haired monk's reading sound on rosary ODongDong?
The knock-knock sound of a Buddhist Moktak ODongDong?
No, no
For the deceptive love who left cheating
ODongDong, ODongDong beating a drum
Praying earnestly over a clear water bowl is ODongDong.
