Barame heunallideon geu nare
gyejeori ttaseudeon geu nare
Geudae puman-e seui-eo
angideon nae moseub-eun ajigdo geujal-i geudaelo in-de

On the day when the wind was blowing
and the season was warm
The way I nestled in your arms
is still there, just as it was

Nunmulnage salanghaetdeon geu nal-lo
haengboghaetdeon geunallo na dol-agal sun eobsnayo
Na apado sungan-i majimag-ilado
geudae pumsog-e nal an-ajugil

Can’t I go back to the day
I loved you so much and was happy?
Even if I’m in pain, please hold me
in your arms, even for a moment

Bame nallineun meonjideodoeeo
chang-ga-e naelineun bismuldoeeo
Geudae issneun got geu eodilado
dagagal su issdamyeon nae modeungeol beolilten-de

Even if I become dust blown by the wind
or rain falling on the window sill
If I can approach wherever you are,
I’ll give up everything

Nunmulnage salanghaetdeon geu nal-lo
haengboghaetdeon geunallo na dol-agal sun eobsnayo
Na apado sungan-i majimag-ilado
geudae pumsog-e nal an-ajugil
Eodumsog-e nan honja seoissjyo machi
gil-eul ilh-eun aicheoleul geob-ina eol-eobuj-eun nae mam

Can’t I go back to the day
I loved you so much and was happy?
Even if I’m in pain, please hold me
in your arms, even for a moment
I’m standing alone in the darkness,
like a lost child, scared and frozen

Dan hanbeonman na dol-agal su
issdamyeon eonjelado geudae naegero omyeon doeyo
Nan hangsang geu gos-eseo
iss-eulge sigan-e muneojiji mayo

If I can only go back once,
whenever you come to me
I’ll always be there,
don’t collapse with time
