Yuri is first and foremost

A member of Girls’ Generation

That unforgettable cafe barista

Who debuted in August of ’07.

She grew in leaps and bounds, of course

In directions we may not have predicted.

And now there she stands, as high as can be

But can we really say it was unexpected?

Then how do we describe this woman

Who so swiftly captured our hearts?

The phrase “Yuri is…” seems so little

But a definition’s a good place to start.



Yuri is quite the force on stage

Whether it’s singing, rapping, or dancing.

The way she moves just makes our heads spin

Her voice turns every note entrancing.

So it’s no wonder she’s already done so much:

She’s an actress, a model, an MC.

She performs what’s asked and even some more

Being flawless? It’s all a breeze.

She’s a person simply beyond stunning

Taking the entire world’s breath in a beat.

With just one look, one fleeting glance

She can make anyone feel the heat.



Yuri is undeniably off the charts

When it comes to being considered “random”.

But if you can’t say that’s her most endearing trait

Are you really a part of this fandom?

Because who wouldn’t love her antics? For one:

The vocalizations of this language master.

“English, a little bit?” will only make us say,

“I love so much!” even faster.

Really, this crazy “kkab Yul”

Won’t let image become a problem.

Why not make faces and goof off as you please?

It’s fun! So have fun often.



Yuri is simply a smile

Happiness, just like that, personified.

Watch her a moment and then you’ve forgotten

With what you were previously preoccupied.

Through good times and bad, everyone knows

Life is full of ups and downs.

But why should you dwell on those gray cloudy days

When you could giggle instead? Don’t frown!

To her, it’s clear how to handle the stress

As for the very best she strives.

For every punch, there’s a laugh, a kick gets a grin

And when she wins, she gives a hi-five.



Yuri is another year older today

But it really is hard to remember

That with time should come age, the old should make way for the new

Once every passing December.

Though people can change, some really don’t

They never forget who they are.

As the years go by, they only get brighter

’Til they shine, the most brilliant of stars.

To Yuri, a person so amazing,

So difficult to try and describe

SONEs can offer a birthday wish

And a promise to stay by your side.
