[English]

The name of the star where I live

They often call it Regulus

Even if it's dark all day long

I'm not lonely at all

In this place where I live and breathe

There is a flower that reminds me of you

It never withers or fades away

It always stays by my side

This night, this moon, and this stunning day

Words cannot describe you

Let's hold hands together

And go live on an island of ecstasy

So it doesn't slip through our fingertips

The blue ocean, the sand, weighing the depth of our love once more

My heart is made of you, stretching out

Tap-tap, after the rain passes, we have bloomed in full

The name of the star where I live

They often call it Regulus

Even if it's dark all day long

I'm not lonely at all

In this place where I live and breathe

There is a flower that reminds me of you

It never withers or fades away

It always stays by my side, oh

...

The moment, the sound

Of your footsteps crossing through the galaxy

The burning sunshine and the moonlight

Are already waiting for you to arrive

This night, this moon, and this stunning day

Words cannot describe you

Shall we pluck two petals

And cherish them one by one?

Even if I can't remember because I have faded away

So that you're the only one who knows

Beneath the horizon star, I will bury this secret

Tap-tap, so the flower that is you can bloom again

The name of the star where I live

They often call it Regulus

Even if it's dark all day long

I'm not lonely at all

In this place where I live and breathe

There is a flower that reminds me of you

It never withers or fades away

It always stays by my side, oh

I am withering, but please, you do not wither

Remember me even when I'm gone, yeah, just a little selfishly

This star is a precious, living, breathing memory

Even if it's many kilometers away from the earth

I'm hoping, can you stay just the way you are?

Underneath the lights of a night shining with shooting stars

After the moon sets, until the dawn sky reveals you

Endless stars in the night sky gleam

They will shine, looking down toward the earth

The place where I breathe, called Regulus

It will shine upon you

Of all the many I have met

You are the only one I will remember

To you, who is listening to this song right now

I will remember you, oh

...

[Korean]

The name of the star that I live on

Often, they call it the Regulus

Even though it may be dark all-day

It doesn't wither or fade away

It always stays by my side

This night, this moon, and stunning day

You can't be described

Let's hold our hands together

And go live on ecstatic isle

So that it doesn't escape away the tip of our fingers ends

The blue ocean, the sand, weighing the size of our love again

My heart's made of you, extend

Tok-tok after the rain goes, we have bloomed in full

The name of the star that I live on

Shall we take two petals off

And cherish them one by one

Even if I can't remember 'cause I have faded away

So that you're the only one who knows

Under the horizon star, I will bury the secret

Tok-tok so the flower of you can bloom again

Remember me even when I'm gone, yeah, just a little selfishly

This star is precious a living and breathing memory

Even if it's far away from the earth, kilometer

I'm hoping, can you stay the way you are?

Underneath the lights of the star-shooting shining night

After the moon sets, until the dawn sky reveals you

Endless stars on the night sky gleam

They will shine facing towards the earth

The place I breathe called Regulus

It will shine on you

Out of the many that I've met

You're the only one I'll remember

You who is listening to this song now

I'll remember you, oh
