One Woman: A Song for UN Women

Support women all over the world. Buy "One Woman" at song.unwomen.org.
From China to Costa Rica, from Mali to Malaysia, acclaimed singers and musicians, women and men, have come together to spread a message of unity and solidarity: We are "One Woman".
Launching on International Women's Day, 8 March 2013, the song is a rallying cry that inspires listeners to join the drive for women's rights and gender equality. "One Woman" was written for UN Women, the global champion for women and girls worldwide, to celebrate its mission and work to improve women's lives around the world.
This year, International Women's Day focuses on ending violence against women - a gross human rights violation that affects up to 7 in 10 women and a top priority for UN Women. As commemorations are underway in all corners of the globe, "One Woman" reminds us that together, we can overcome violence and discrimination: "We Shall Shine!" Join us to help spread the word and enjoy this musical celebration of women worldwide.

    This was played at a retreat at the Dominican Retreat Center in Niskayuna, NY years ago. It was a moment for sure for all of us. I am able to go back to that enriching weekend each time I dial up this amazing song. What a true gift this was/is to me. Never gets old - always moves my soul and I cry tears of so many kinds - joy, belonging, hope, but mostly joy. To all of you beautiful women who may come across my post here, Live life to the very fullest - support, love and respect all women everywhere. Namaste World. Much love.

    As a woman, this song made me very emotional. I cried in the end. The message in this song is simple: We (women) are one woman and we all hurt. No matter what country we're from, how fat or skinny we are, how pretty we look or what disabilities we have, together we sing with one voice. Happy International Women's Day!

    This song really touched my heart. So I translated the English lyrics to Korean as below. One Woman 한 여성 In Kigali, she wakes up, 키칼리(아프리카 르완다의 지역이름) 에서, 그녀는 눈을 뜹니다. She makes a choice, 그녀는 마음을 정합니다. In Hanoi, Natal, Ramallah. 하노이, 나탈, 람말라 (베트남, 브라질, 팔레스타인의 지역이름)에서, In Tangier, she takes a breath, 텐져 (모로코 지역이름)에서 그녀는 심호흡을 한후, Lifts up her voice, 그녀의 목소리를 높입니다. In Lahore, La Paz, Kampala. 라호르, 라파즈, 캄팔라 (파키스탄, 볼리비아, 우간다 지역이름)에서, Though she’s half a world away 비록 그녀는 멀리 지구 반대편에 있지만 Something in me wants to say … 내속에는 뭔가 말하고 싶은것이 있습니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. You cry and I hear you. 당신이 울면 나는 들을 수 있습니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. You hurt, and I hurt, too. 당신이 아프면, 나도 아픕니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. Your hopes are mine. 당신의 소망은 나의 소망입니다. We shall shine. 우리는 빛날것 입니다. In Juarez she speaks the truth, 후아레즈 (멕시코 지역이름)에서 그녀는 진실을 이야기 했습니다. She reaches out, 그녀는 도움을 펼쳐, Then teaches others how to. 다른이들에게 (진실을 말하는법을) 가르쳐습니다. In Jaipur, she gives her name, 자이푸르 (인도 지역이름)에서, 그녀는 그녀의 이름을 알렸습니다. She lives without shame 그녀는 부끄럼 없이 살아 갑니다. In Manila, Salta, Embu. 마닐라, 살타, 엠부 (필리핀, 아르헨티나, 케냐 지역이름)에서, Though we’re different as can be, 비록 우리는 서로 무척 다르지만 We’re connected, she with me 그녀가 내마음에 있어 우리는 서로 연결 되어 있습니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. Your courage keeps me strong. 당신의 용기는 나를 강하게 합니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. You sing, I sing along. 당신이 노래하면, 나는 따라 부릅니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. Your dreams are mine. 당신의 꿈이 곧 나의 꿈입니다. And we shall shine. 그리고 우리는 빛날것 입니다. We shall shine. 우리는 빛날것 입니다. And one man, he hears her voice. 그리고 한 남성, 그녀의 목소리를 듣습니다. And one man, he fights her fight. 그리고 한 남성, 그녀의 투쟁에 동참합니다. Day by day, he lets go the old ways, One Woman at a time. 날마다 그는 한여성과 같이 오랜길을 걸어갑니다. Though she’s half a world away 비록 그녀는 멀리 지구 반대편에 있지만 Something in me wants to say … 내속에는 뭔가 말하고 싶은것이 있습니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. Your victories lift us all. 당신의 승리는 우리 모두의 사기를 높입니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. You rise and I stand tall. 당신이 일어나기에 나는 높이 설 수 있습니다. We are One Woman, 우리는 한 여성 입니다. Your world is mine 당신의 세상은 곧 나의 세상입니다. And we shall shine. 그리고 우리는 빛날것 입니다. Shine, shine, shine. 빛나고, 빛나고, 빛날것 입니다. We shall shine. 우리는 빛날것 입니다. Shine, shine, shine. 빛나고, 빛나고, 빛날것 입니다. We shall shine. 우리는 빛날것 입니다. Shine, shine, shine. 빛나고, 빛나고, 빛날것 입니다.
