Tumyeonghan yuriguseulcheoreom boijiman
i may look like a clear glass bead
Geureoke swipge kkaejijin aneul geoya
but i won’t break that easily
Saranghae neomaneul byeonhaji antorok
i love you, only you, so it won’t change
Yeongwonhi neol bichwojulge
i will shine on you forever
Naega yakhae boyeonnayo
did i look weak?
Eonjena geokjeongdoennayo
were you always worried?
Dalbiche banjjagineun jeo iseulcheoreom
like that dew sparkling in the moonlight
Sarajil geomman gannayo
do i seem like i’ll disappear?
Buranhae mayo kkumman gannayo
don’t be anxious, does it feel like a dream?
Neol wihaeseo bitnago isseo
i am shining for you
Tteollineun geudae soneul kkwak jabajulgeyo
i will hold your trembling hand tight
Ttaseuhi gamssajulgeyo
i will embrace you warmly
Tumyeonghan yuriguseulcheoreom boijiman
i may look like a clear glass bead
Geureoke swipge kkaejijin aneul geoya
but i won’t break that easily
Saranghae neomaneul byeonhaji antorok
i love you, only you, so it won’t change
Yeongwonhi neol bichwojulge
i will shine on you forever
Mot irul geot eopseoyo
there is nothing i can’t achieve
Geudaeman isseojundamyeon
if only you are there
Eoduwotdeon mam soge
inside my dark heart
Balgeun haetsareul bichwojwo
shine the bright sunlight
Eonjekkajina
forever
Dugeungeorineun simjangsorie
in the pounding sound of the heart
Geudaeui maeumi jeonhaejyeo
your heart is conveyed
Tteollineun eokkae ijen kkok anajulgeyo
i will hug your trembling shoulders tight now
Ttaseuhi gamssajulgeyo
i will embrace you warmly
Tumyeonghan yuriguseulcheoreom boijiman
i may look like a clear glass bead
Geureoke swipge kkaejijin aneul geoya
but i won’t break that easily
Saranghae neomaneul byeonhaji antorok
i love you, only you, so it won’t change
Yeongwonhi neol bichwojulge
i will shine on you forever
Dalkomhan maldo piryo eopseoyo
i don’t need sweet words
(oh eopseoyo)

Mitgiji anneun gijeogi chaja on geoya
