[English]

The twinkling of the night sky

You, the lone star

It shines deep within my heart

Don't you know me?

Your fragrance drifting on the wind

That smile that sunlight passes through

I just want it all to stop

Even if it's only in a dream, you

Please look back at me

I, without you...

I can't

Thinking of you erases the deep night

I can't endure it through the night

I have been longing for myself

Our stories together

Like scenes from a movie

If I am with you

How wonderful that would be

You

Love me

If it's you

Everything is fine

Even if it's just tears

It's okay as long as I'm by your side

My love, with you

Ah

[Korean]

밤하늘의 반짝이는

저 별 하나 그대

나의 마음속 깊이 빛나고 있어요

그대는 날 모르나요

바람에 실리는 그대 향기

햇살의 빛이 지나는 그 대미소

다 고만 싶어

꿈에서라도 그대여

나를 돌아봐 줘요

난 그대 없이

안 되겠어요

깊은 밤이 없는 그대 생각에

난 밤새도록 참 못들죠

나는 나를 바래 왔었죠

그대와 나의 이야기들을

영화의 순간처럼

그대와 함께한다면

얼마나 좋을까

그대

나를 사랑해 줘요

난 그대라면

모든 좋아요

눈물뿐이래도

그대 곁하면 괜찮아요

나의 사랑 그대와

Ah
