[English]

Boom!

Love is an explosion, love is an explosion

This is an emergency, I've never seen such overwhelming emotions

The balance is good, the core is good, hmm, it’s looking quite nice

Our gazes meet, a deadly battle that allows no moment of weakness

Meeting here is the hundredth year, boy (girl)

Look, we intertwine, we intertwine

The fuse of destiny

If we light the fire together, everything will begin

Boom!

The flower of love blooms beautifully

Even if I end up liking someone else

I can’t lie about this excitement anymore

I met you, I encountered you

It feels as if I’ve conquered the world, ah

Love is an explosion, love is an explosion

No response on LINE, if this continues, I’ll be disliked

Do you know that girls have many schedules of their own?

I haven’t learned it, it’s not in the dictionary, and I still want to know your heart

Shall we sit down and talk, girl (boy)?

Ah, we acknowledge each other, we acknowledge each other

Our misunderstandings

If we tidy it up together, everything will be resolved

Boom!

Love is always a sudden event

It’s natural that I’m not prepared

This excitement just won’t stop

It won’t stop… it won’t stop…

Boom!

The flower of love blooms beautifully

Even if I end up liking someone else

I can’t lie about this excitement anymore

I met you, I encountered you

It feels as if I’ve conquered the world, ah

Boom!
