Dasi taeeonandamyeon dasi salanghandamyeon
geuttaeneun uli ileoji mal-ayo
Jogeum deol mannago jogeum deol gidaehamyeo
manh-eun yagsog anhgilo haeyo

If I were born again, if I love again
Let’s not be like this then
Let’s meet a little less, expect a little less
Let’s not make too many promises

Dasi ibyeol-i wado seolo keun apeum eobs-i
dol-aseol su iss-eul mankeum
Beolyeodo doeneun gabyeoun chueogman
seoloui gaseum-e mandeulgilo haeyo

Even if we break up again, without much pain
We can turn away from each other
Let’s create only light memories that can be thrown away
In each other’s hearts

Ijen al-ayo neomu gip-eun salang-eun
oelyeo seulpeun majimag-eul gajyeoondaneun geol
Geudaeyeo bilgeyo da-eumbeon-ui salang-eun
uli gatji anhgil budi apeum-i eobs-i
Na, na, na-ah, ah
naboda deo haengboghaejyeoyaman hae

Now I know that deep love
Brings a sad ending
I pray that our next love
Won’t be like us, without pain
Na, na, na-ah, ah
You have to be happier than me

Manh-eun sigan-i heulleo seolo ijgo jinaedo jinannal-eul hoesanghamyeo
Geuttaedo igeon salang-ieossdago
malhal su issdamyeon geugeollo doen geojyo

Even if a lot of time passes and we forget each other
If we can say that it was love even back then
That’s enough for us

I jen al-ayo neomu gip-eun salang-eun
oelyeo seulpeun majimag-eul gajyeoondaneun geol
Geudaeyeo bilgeyo da-eumbeon-ui salang-eun
uli gatji anhgil budi apeum-i eobs-i

Now I know that deep love
Brings a sad ending
I pray that our next love
Won’t be like us, without pain

I jen al-ayo yeong-wonhal jul al-assdeon
geudaewaui salangmajeo nal sog-yeossdaneun ge
Geuboda seulpeun geon na eobs-i geudaega
haengboghage jinael meon husnal-ui moseub
Na, na, na-ah, ah
nae ma-eum-eul haneulman-eun algileul

Now I know that even the love
That I thought would last forever
Deceived me
What’s sadder than that is you
Living happily in a far future without me
Na, na, na-ah, ah
I hope only the sky knows my heart
