[English]

I'm on my way to you, following this light

Following down the white path

Left behind in the vanished time

Walking down that same path, side by side

Your scent that still lingers even now

Brings back those hazy memories to me once again

Through the time that has passed me by, through the flowing time

I go to find you, shining brightly and silently above

Spreading out colors of red and violet

On top of that, we make love without any pain

The light still shines brightly at midnight

I believe that all these lights are you, right?

The Aurora that you gave to me

Always shines a prismatic purple as it passes through my sky

I found this on my journey

Aurora

It drifted over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Will you clear away the clouds that hide you

And shine even brighter against the dark night?

Stay with me, even if I try to hold onto you

And linger longer as a light in the dark night

Setting aside my regretful heart

I'll write the ending to the unfinished stories left untold

Among the countless stars scattered across the sky

Fill and complete the night sky with your glowing light

A picturesque night

Yet the sky remains bright along the Milky Way

It feels right, finding my senses, no longer lost, in the light

I'll hold your warm hand tight

The Aurora that you gave to me

Always shines a prismatic purple as it passes through my sky

I found this on my journey

Aurora

It drifted over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Before the dark night sky fades away

It will remember you before it leaves

The moon that stayed for a while

It will reach you and shine down all night, glowing

...

I found this on my journey

Aurora

It drifted over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Will you clear away the clouds that hide you

And shine even brighter against the dark night?

Stay with me, even if I try to hold onto you

And linger longer as a light in the dark night

...

[Korean]

I'm on my way to you, following this light

Following down the white path

Remaining behind the vanished time

Walking down the same path, alongside

Your scent that still lingers until now

Brings back the memories that remain hazy back to me again

Within the time that passed by me, flowing time

Goes to find you shining brightly down without a sound

Colors of red and blue purple lay them out

On top of that, we make love without a pain

The light still shines out bright at midnight

I believe all the lights are you, right?

AuRoRa that you gave me

Always shines prism purple when it passes by me in the sky

I got this on my way

AuRoRa

It crossed over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Will you clear the cloud that's hiding you

And brighten you up even more with the dark night?

Stay with me even if I own you

And remain longer as the light in the dark night

Leaving behind the regretful heart aside

I'll write the end of the unfinished stories haven't said

Between the countless stars spread up in the sky

Fill up and fulfill the night sky with your glowing light

Picturesque night

But the sky is still bright along the milky way

Feels right, find senses, ending being lost, light

I'll hold onto your warm hand tight

AuRoRa that you gave me

Always shines prism purple when it passes by me in the sky

I got this on my way

AuRoRa

It crossed over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Before the dark night sky leaves

It will remember you before it goes

The moon that stayed for a while

It will reach you and shine down all night, glow

I got this on my way

AuRoRa

It crossed over my head

Go ahead (ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Will you clear the cloud that's hiding you

And brighten you up even more with the dark night?

Stay with me even if I own you

And remain longer as the light in the dark night
