[English]

난 엄마가 늘 베푼 사랑에 어색해

I'm awkward with the love my mom has always given me.

그래서 그런 건가 늘 어렵다니까

Is that why it's always hard for me?

잃기 두려웠던 욕심 속에도

Even with the greed I was afraid to lose,

작은 예쁨이 있지

there's a small beauty in it.

난 지금 행복해 그래서 불안해

I'm happy right now, so I feel anxious.

폭풍 전 바다는 늘 고요하니까

Because the calm before the storm is always quiet.

불이 붙어 빨리 타면 안 되잖아

If the fire catches and burns quickly, that’s no good.

나는 사랑을 응원해

I'm rooting for love.

젊은 우리 나이테는 잘 보이지 않고

Our young rings of life aren’t easy to see,

찬란한 빛에 눈이 멀어 꺼져가는데

And blinded by the dazzling light, they fade away.

아아아아아, 아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aaah-aa-aa-aa-aa

아아아아아, 아아

Aaaa, aa-aa

아아아아아, 아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aa-aa-aa-aa

아아아아아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aa-aa-aa-aa

슬픈 어른은 늘 뒷걸음만 치고

The sad adult person always steps back.

미운 스물을 넘긴 넌 지루해 보여

You, who just passed the rebellious twenties, look bored.

불이 붙어 빨리 타면 안 되니까

Because if the fire burns quickly, that’s no good.

우리 사랑을 응원해

We’re cheering for our love.

젊은 우리 나이테는 잘 보이지 않고

Our young rings of life aren’t easy to see,

찬란한 빛에 눈이 멀어 꺼져가는데

And blinded by the dazzling light, they fade away.

그래, 그때 나는 잘 몰랐었어

Yeah, back then I didn't really understand.

우린 다른 점만 닮았고

We only resemble each other's differences,

철이 들어 먼저 떨어져 버린

And when we matured, we drifted apart.

너와 이젠 나도 닮았네

Now, you and I are starting to resemble each other.

젊은 우리 나이테는 잘 보이지 않고

Our young rings of life aren’t easy to see,

찬란한 빛에 눈이 멀어 꺼져가는데

And blinded by the dazzling light, they fade away.

아아아아아, 아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aaah-aa-aa-aa-aa

아아아아아, 아아

Aaaa, aa-aa

아아아아아, 아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aa-aa-aa-aa

아아아아아아아아아

Aaaaaa, aa-aa-aa-aa
