This song is about a prayer for the deceased :
“the deceased” might have been her lost son or husband who had passed away in war.
In Maya’s video, you can see a lot of people who fought for their country and died. So I think Maya chose those images to honor their struggle and memory with the song.
“Azaleas” – So Wol Kim (1902-1934)
If you are sick of me and want to go, I'll let you go-gently-I won't say a word.
I will pluck a handful of azaleas from Yaksan in Yangbyon. I will strew them in your path.
Tread gently in these flowers. They deck your parting steps.
If you are sick of me and you want to go, though I die, I won't shed a tear.
