bom-nal-cheo-reom seu-chi-deut an-nyeong
The flowers in bloom will someday fall
Deeply colored for a single moment
Goodbye, passing by like a spring day
World turns blue, I’m the only one in pain?
nal-ka-rop-ge be-in sang-cheo teum-e gat-hin chae
nae-nae gye-sok-dwae bam-sae geo-chin ho-heup
One for the memories, two for the flame
Three for the silence, four for the shame
geu gye-jeol-i ji-na-gan geu ja-ri-e
World turns blue, I’m the only one in pain?
Trapped inside the cuts of a sharply sliced wound
It keeps going all night, rough breaths without end
One for the memories, two for the flame
Three for the silence, four for the shame
In the place where that season passed
i-byeol dwi-e u-rin deo sa-rang-ha-go
heu-teo-jyeo-do ppu-ri-neun ha-nan geol
i-byeol geu hu-e da-si pi-u-neun kkot
After goodbye, we love even more
Even if scattered, the roots are one
A flower that blooms again after farewell
As petals shed eh eh
4 Flowers eh eh eh
As petals shed eh eh
4 Flowers eh eh eh
Deeper traces
jeol-dae meom-chu-ji a-neul Flow
Deeper traces
A flow that will never stop
ung-keu-rin hu-e-ya Breathe again e e (go-gae-reul deu-reo)
kkeut-i kkeut-na-ji an-to-rok oh
Only after curling inward, breathe again e e (Lift your head)
So the end will not truly end, oh
I’m the soil beneath, keeping all your memories
man-nam i-byeol da ttok-gat-ji-man
hwak-sil-han geon o-jik nae gyeol-jeong
One for the memories, two for the flame
Three for the silence, four for the shame
u-ri-ga ji-na-on geu ja-ri-e
I’m the soil beneath, keeping all your memories
Meeting and parting may all seem the same
But the only thing certain is my decision
One for the memories, two for the flame
Three for the silence, four for the shame
In the place we have passed through
i-byeol dwi-e u-rin deo sa-rang-ha-go
heu-teo-jyeo-do ppu-ri-neun ha-nan geol
i-byeol geu hu-e da-si pi-u-neun kkot
After goodbye, we love even more
Even if scattered, the roots are one
A flower that blooms again after farewell
yeo-gi da-si geu wi-ro
Only for flowers
heut-nal-li-deon gi-eok-deul da mo-a
Don’t let them slip away
We bring the light inside our hearts
sae-rop-ge da-si pi-eo-na
Here, once again, above that place
Only for flowers
Gathering all the memories that once scattered
Don’t let them slip away
We bring the light inside our hearts
Blooming anew once again
4 Flowers (Burning red)
4 Flowers (Never disappear)
4 Flowers
4 Flowers
4 Flowers
As petals shed eh eh
4 Flowers eh eh eh
i-byeol dwi-e u-rin deo sa-rang-ha-go
After goodbye, we love even more
The lyrics contemplate the cycle of love and separation through the metaphorical imagery of blooming and falling flowers. Even when encountering a painful farewell that leaves deep emotional scars and isolation, the underlying bond remains tightly connected since they share the same deep roots. It conveys a strong message of resilience, promising to gather all scattered memories and protect them so that a new salvation and a brighter light can emerge to bloom beautifully once again.
