눈앞에 하마가 왁 TV에 documentary A hippo right in front of me, on WAAC TV, a documentary 00:08

괜히 쎄한 이 기분은 뭔데? Why do I have this uneasy feeling? 00:11

잊을만하면 매번 튀어나와 Just when I'm about to forget, it pops up every time 00:13

눈 도장을 꼭 찍고 가지 Making sure to leave a lasting impression 00:15

(Hippo) 왜 뜬금없이 거기 있는데 (Hippo) Why are you suddenly there? 00:18

(Hippo) 시선을 뺏어가는 건데 (Hippo) Why are you stealing my gaze? 00:20

더는 정 줄 생각 없으니 I'm not going to lose my mind anymore, 00:22

내 눈앞에서 멀리, 더 멀리 사라져 줘 Just disappear from my sight, far, far away 00:25

이대론 그날을 떠올리면 If it's like this, when I remember that day, 00:29

그 사람 말고 꼭 네가, 네가, 네가 너만 It's not that person, but you, you, you, only you 00:32

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁 Boo here, and boo there 00:37

놀래킬 맘은 없었다는 눈 Eyes that say they didn't mean to scare me 00:39

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁 Boo here, and boo there 00:41

하니 도망가지 뭐 (당연하게도 꺅) So I guess I run away (Naturally, Eek!) 00:44

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁 Boo here, and boo there 00:46

나의 소심을 놀리려는 듯 As if trying to make fun of my timidity 00:48

이러다 꿈에도 나올 것 같이 At this rate, it feels like it'll appear in my dreams 00:50

돌아다녀 내 머릿속에 하마가 A hippo is wandering around in my head 00:55

자꾸 맴돌아 그 앞에 미소가 That smile keeps lingering in front of it 01:00

내 귓가에 너의 목소리 Your voice in my ear 01:04

세상이 활짝 열린 것 같은 그 향기가 That fragrance, like the world is wide open 01:07

말 한마디 못 걸어보곤 뒤 돌았던 I couldn't even say a word and turned away 01:14

그 시간에 돌아가는 미래엔 In the future where I return to that time 01:18

너의 뒤에 걸려있던 그 웃는 하마가 That smiling hippo hanging behind you 01:23

아닌 너를 보게 해줘 Let me see you, not it 01:33

절대로 그 사람이 네게 밀린 게 아냐 That person was definitely not pushed back by you 01:46

너도 첫눈에 반한 하마 앞에 부끄러워져 보면 알아 You'll know if you also become shy in front of a hippo you fell for at first sight 01:51

(Hippo) 혹시 내게 말을 걸까 봐 (Hippo) I'm worried you might talk to me 01:55

(Hippo) 그림을 찢고 나올까 봐 (Hippo) I'm worried you might tear through the painting and come out 01:58

입이 떨려 어버버버버 My lips are trembling, uh-buh-buh-buh 02:00

나도 답답해, 답답해, 답답해 I'm also frustrated, frustrated, frustrated 02:05

내가 답답해, 답답해, 답, 답 I'm frustrated, frustrated, frus, frus 02:09

Singing it out Singing it out 02:14

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁 Boo here, and boo there 02:42

혹시 날 응원해 주려는 건 Maybe you're trying to cheer me on? 02:45

아닐까 하고 머리를 써봐도 Even if I try to think it through 02:47

너 때문에 기억이 나질 않잖아 하마야 I can't remember because of you, Hippo 02:52

미소를 담은 그 표정이 (표정이), oh That expression with a smile (expression), oh 02:57

내 귓가에 너의 목소리 Your voice in my ear 03:01

세상이 활짝 열린 것 같은 (같은) 그 향기가 (너의 향기가) That fragrance, like the world is wide open (like), that fragrance (your fragrance) 03:03

말 한마디 못 걸어보곤 뒤 돌았던 I couldn't even say a word and turned away 03:10

그 시간에 돌아가는 미래엔 (그 미래엔) In the future where I return to that time (that future) 03:14

너의 뒤에 걸려있던 그 웃는 하마가 That smiling hippo hanging behind you 03:19

아닌 너를 보게 해줘 Let me see you, not it 03:29

[English]

눈앞에 하마가 왁 TV에 documentary

A hippo right in front of me, on WAAC TV, a documentary

괜히 쎄한 이 기분은 뭔데?

Why do I have this uneasy feeling?

잊을만하면 매번 튀어나와

Just when I'm about to forget, it pops up every time

눈 도장을 꼭 찍고 가지

Making sure to leave a lasting impression

(Hippo) 왜 뜬금없이 거기 있는데

(Hippo) Why are you suddenly there?

(Hippo) 시선을 뺏어가는 건데

(Hippo) Why are you stealing my gaze?

더는 정 줄 생각 없으니

I'm not going to lose my mind anymore,

내 눈앞에서 멀리, 더 멀리 사라져 줘

Just disappear from my sight, far, far away

이대론 그날을 떠올리면

If it's like this, when I remember that day,

그 사람 말고 꼭 네가, 네가, 네가 너만

It's not that person, but you, you, you, only you

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁

Boo here, and boo there

놀래킬 맘은 없었다는 눈

Eyes that say they didn't mean to scare me

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁

Boo here, and boo there

하니 도망가지 뭐 (당연하게도 꺅)

So I guess I run away (Naturally, Eek!)

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁

Boo here, and boo there

나의 소심을 놀리려는 듯

As if trying to make fun of my timidity

이러다 꿈에도 나올 것 같이

At this rate, it feels like it'll appear in my dreams

돌아다녀 내 머릿속에 하마가

A hippo is wandering around in my head

자꾸 맴돌아 그 앞에 미소가

That smile keeps lingering in front of it

내 귓가에 너의 목소리

Your voice in my ear

세상이 활짝 열린 것 같은 그 향기가

That fragrance, like the world is wide open

말 한마디 못 걸어보곤 뒤 돌았던

I couldn't even say a word and turned away

그 시간에 돌아가는 미래엔

In the future where I return to that time

너의 뒤에 걸려있던 그 웃는 하마가

That smiling hippo hanging behind you

아닌 너를 보게 해줘

Let me see you, not it

절대로 그 사람이 네게 밀린 게 아냐

That person was definitely not pushed back by you

너도 첫눈에 반한 하마 앞에 부끄러워져 보면 알아

You'll know if you also become shy in front of a hippo you fell for at first sight

(Hippo) 혹시 내게 말을 걸까 봐

(Hippo) I'm worried you might talk to me

(Hippo) 그림을 찢고 나올까 봐

(Hippo) I'm worried you might tear through the painting and come out

입이 떨려 어버버버버

My lips are trembling, uh-buh-buh-buh

나도 답답해, 답답해, 답답해

I'm also frustrated, frustrated, frustrated

내가 답답해, 답답해, 답, 답

I'm frustrated, frustrated, frus, frus

Singing it out

여기다 왁, 하고 저기다 왁

Boo here, and boo there

혹시 날 응원해 주려는 건

Maybe you're trying to cheer me on?

아닐까 하고 머리를 써봐도

Even if I try to think it through

너 때문에 기억이 나질 않잖아 하마야

I can't remember because of you, Hippo

미소를 담은 그 표정이 (표정이), oh

That expression with a smile (expression), oh

내 귓가에 너의 목소리

Your voice in my ear

세상이 활짝 열린 것 같은 (같은) 그 향기가 (너의 향기가)

That fragrance, like the world is wide open (like), that fragrance (your fragrance)

말 한마디 못 걸어보곤 뒤 돌았던

I couldn't even say a word and turned away

그 시간에 돌아가는 미래엔 (그 미래엔)

In the future where I return to that time (that future)

너의 뒤에 걸려있던 그 웃는 하마가

That smiling hippo hanging behind you

아닌 너를 보게 해줘

Let me see you, not it

Grammar:

괜히 쎄한 이 기분은 뭔데?

➔ Interrogative Pronoun + Descriptive Verb Ending

➔ The use of "뭔데?" which is a contracted form of "무엇인데?" is an informal interrogative asking "What is it?". The use of descriptive verb ending adds a sense of wonder or curiosity.
잊을만하면 매번 튀어나와

➔ -(으)ㄹ 만하다 (worthy of/deserves) + Conditional Clause

➔ "잊을만하면" uses "-(으)ㄹ 만하다" to express that it is *worthy* of being forgotten, meaning it *could* be forgotten if it weren't for the action in the following clause. "튀어나와" means "popping out" or "appearing".
더는 정 줄 생각 없으니

➔ -(으)ㄹ 생각 없다 (no intention of) + -으니 (because/so)

➔ "더는 정 줄 생각 없으니" means "Because I have no intention of losing my mind anymore..." Using the negative intention grammar and the reason/cause connector.
그 시간에 돌아가는 미래엔

➔ -(으)ㄴ/는 미래 (future) + -에 (in/at/to) + 가는 (going)

➔ This part uses the future modifying form "-(으)ㄴ/는" to describe the future ("미래"). "돌아가는 미래" means "the future that goes back/returns", and the -에 particle marks the location/time in which something happens.
절대로 그 사람이 네게 밀린 게 아냐

➔ -(으)ㄴ/는 게 아니다 (It's not that...)

➔ This sentence uses the structure "-(으)ㄴ/는 게 아니다", which is a common way to negate a previous statement or misconception. In this case, it negates the idea that the person was pushed back by "you (the hippo)".
