Jeongniroon sesange nan eorisookhae
Naega jaragineun teogeosi bujokhae
Sakmakhane dosi soge gireul ilggon hae
Neowa sumeul swigi-en neomudo heuritae

I’m inexperienced in this dizzying world
I am far from being mature enough
I often lose my way in this desolate city
It’s too vague to breathe with you

Jaraji mothan aineun deung dwieso ulgo
Meoreojyeo ganeun neoreul ireoke butjaba

The child who couldn’t grow up cries behind
I hold onto you who are drifting away like this

Sarajyeogadeon nareul jabajwo, neoui ongiwa sumeul naege jwo
Yeogi inneun nawa georeojwo, kkeojiji anhge nal jikyeojwo

Catch me as I disappear, give me your warmth and breath
Walk with me here, protect me so I won’t fade away

Ojik neomani nareul ttwige hae, baro geu sungane nan nuneul tteo
Yeogi inneun naege boyeojwo, naega neoreul bureul su itge

Only you make me run, and at that very moment, I open my eyes
Show yourself to me who is here, so I can call you

Jeongniroon siseongwa majuhaesseul ttae
Naege yuilhan jonjaero dagaon neo
Jeongniroon sesange nan eorisookhae
Naega jaragineun teogeosi bujokhae

When I met your bewildered gaze
You approached me as the only existence for me
I’m inexperienced in this dizzying world
I am far from being mature enough

Ojik neomani nareul ttwige hae, baro geu sungane nan nuneul tteo
Yeogi inneun naege boyeojwo, naega neoreul bureul su itge

Only you make me run, and at that very moment, I open my eyes
Show yourself to me who is here, so I can call you
