Eonjebuteo inji seubgwancheoreom yeonlakhago
majuhan sigani deoneun seollejil anha
haru jongil banbokdoeneun datumkkajido
sasohage ssahin ohaemajeo
eotteon mallo pureoya haneunji

Since when did we habitually contact each other
The time we met no longer makes my heart flutter
Even the small misunderstandings that have
accumulated into daily arguments
I don’t know how to express them

Iksukhan tasinji jogeumeun jigyeobgido hae
honjain sigani gakkeumeun geuribgido hae
haru jongil gunggeumhadeon neoui anbudo
deoneun swibke mureobol su eopneun
keureon gamjeonge harureul sara

Maybe it’s because it’s become familiar, but it’s a bit tiring
Sometimes I miss being alone
I spend the day wondering how you are doing
But I can no longer easily ask about your well-being
Living with such emotions

Neon eotteohke jinaeneun geonji
hoksi nawa gateun ji bappeun ilsang soge
nae saenggak gateun geon haji anhneunji

How are you doing?
Do you ever think of me amidst your busy daily life?
Do you regret having loved me when we were together?

Nal manna saranghaetdeon geol
huhoehajin anhneunji kkeutiraneun ge
saenggakboda swiun irin geon aninji

I know it was only for a short time, but I don’t know what to say
How should we say our final goodbyes? Will we ever be able to meet again?
Will the warmth of the many words we shared disappear like a lie?

Swiul jul arasseo neol majuhagi jeoneneun
maeumgwaneun dallasseo
wae ireohke apeun geonji
saenggakboda neomu swibke
ijhyeojil geol almyeonseo
wae hamkkehan naldeuri tteooreuneunji

In truth, we know it’s only for a moment
But with what words
Should we end things between us?
Can I see you again?
Will all the words we shared and the warmth we had together
Disappear like a lie?

Neon eotteohke jinaeneun geonji
hoksi nawa gateun ji bappeun ilsang soge
nae saenggak gateun geon haji anhneunji

How are you doing?
Do you ever think of me amidst your busy daily life?
Do you regret having loved me when we were together?

Nal manna saranghaetdeon geol
huhoehajin anhneunji kkeutiraneun ge
saenggakboda swiun irin geon aninji

I know it was only for a short time, but I don’t know what to say
How should we say our final goodbyes? Will we ever be able to meet
again?
Will the warmth of the many words we shared disappear like a lie?
