Tteollineun neoui ipsureul nan
Nan cheoeum boassji
Museun mal haryeogo, mal haryeogo
O, tteumman deurineunji

I saw your trembling lips
I saw them for the first time
What are you trying to say, trying to say
Oh, are you just hesitating?

Seulpeun yegameun da matneundan
Noraega sachyeomcheoreom
Seolma anigetji anil geoya
O, anieoyaman dwae

Sad premonitions all come true
Like the lyrics of a song
It couldn’t be, it won’t be
Oh, it mustn’t be

Beolsseo neon nareul tteona ne maeummajeo tteona
Tto mommajeodo tteonaneunde
Nan molla neol jabeul bangbeobeul jom

Already, you’re leaving me, even your heart is leaving
Even your body is leaving again
I don’t know how to hold onto you
Someone, please tell me

Oneul bam geu malmaneun marayo
Wae nal beorigo gatnayo
Na maeumi apa gaseumi apa
Unmul chaollayo

Please don’t say those words tonight
Why did you leave me behind?
My heart hurts, my chest hurts
Tears well up

Ajigeun annyeong urin an dwaeyo
Neon geu ibeul deo yeolji ma
Annyeongirago naege malhaji ma

We can’t say goodbye yet
Don’t open your mouth anymore
Don’t say goodbye to me

Chagaun neoui hanmadiga
Nal jujeoanhyeotji
Sesang muneojil deut, muneojin deut
O, nunmulman, nunmulman

Your cold words
Made me collapse
As if the world is crumbling, it crumbled
Oh, only tears, only tears

Jigeum sungani gamyeon i sungani jinamyeon
Yeongyeong urin ibyeorinde
Saranghae jukdorok saranghan nal
Nal beoriji marajwoyo

If this moment passes, if this moment is gone
We’re forever parting
Don’t leave me, who loved you to death
Don’t abandon me

Oneul bam geu malmaneun marayo
Wae nal beorigo gatnayo
Na maeumi apa gaseumi apa
Nunmul chaollayo

Please don’t say those words tonight
Why did you leave me behind?
My heart hurts, my chest hurts
Tears well up

Ajigeun annyeong urin an dwaeyo
Neon geu ibeul deo yeolji ma
Annyeongirago naege malhaji ma
Nareul tteonaji ma

We can’t say goodbye yet
Don’t open your mouth anymore
Don’t say goodbye to me
Don’t leave me

Ibyeori mwonji naneun mollayo (gaji ma)
Geunyang seorobgo seoreowo
Na sayeoni mana chueogi mana
Gaseum jjijeo jyeoyo

I don’t know what a breakup is (Don’t go)
I’m just sad and miserable
I have so many stories, so many memories
My heart is torn apart

Ajigeun annyeong urin an dwaeyo
Eon geu ibeul deo yeolji ma
Annyeongirago naege malhaji ma
Annyeongirago naege malhaji ma
Annyeongirago naege malhaji ma

We can’t say goodbye yet
Don’t open your mouth anymore
Don’t say goodbye to me
Don’t say goodbye to me
Don’t say goodbye to me
