잊어야 한다는 마음으로
ijeoya handaneun maeumeulo
내 텅빈 방문을 닫은 채로
nae teongbin bangmuneul dad-eun chaelo
아직도 남아 있는 너의 향기
ajigdo nama issneun neoui hyanggi
내 텅빈 방안에 가득 한데
nae teongbin bangane gadeug hande
이렇게 홀로 누워 천정을 보니
ileohge hollo nuwo cheonjeongeul boni
눈앞에 글썽이는 너의 모습
nunape geulsseong-ineun neoui moseub
잊으려 돌아 누운 내 눈가에
ijeulyeo dola nuun nae nungae
말없이 흐르는 이슬방울들
maleobsi heuleuneun iseulbang-uldeul
지나간 시간은 추억속에
jinagan siganeun chueogsoge
묻히면 그만인 것을
mudhimyeon geumanin geoseul
나는 왜 이렇게 긴긴 밤을
naneun wae ileohge gingin bam-eul
또 잊지 못해 새울까
tto itji moshae saeulkka
창틈에 기다리던 새벽이 오면
changteume gidalideon saebyeogi omyeon
어제보다 커진 내방안에
eojeboda keojin naebangane
하얗게 밝아온 유리창에
hayahge balgaon yulichange
썼다 지운다 널 사랑해
sseossda jiunda neol salanghae
밤하늘에 빛나는 수많은 별들
bamhaneule bichnaneun sumanheun byeoldeul
저마다 아름답지만
jeomada aleumdabjiman
내 맘속에 빛나는 별 하나
nae mamsoge bichnaneun byeol hana
오직 너만있을 뿐이야
ojig neomanisseul ppuniya
창틈에 기다리던 새벽이 오면
changteume gidalideon saebyeogi omyeon
어제보다 커진 내방안에
eojeboda keojin naebangane
하얗게 밝아온 유리창에
hayahge balgaon yulichange
썼다 지운다 널 사랑해
sseossda jiunda neol salanghae
A Heart That Should Forget (잊어야 한다는 마음으로) Lyric English Translation
With a heart that should forget
I close the door to my empty room
Your scent still lingers
Filling the empty room
I lay down and stare at the ceiling
In front of my eyes a mirage of your figure appears
When I try to forget you
Silently the dew drops fall from my eyes
Inside memories from times that have gone by
If I could forget them it would be done
By why am I still awake on this long night
Again unable to forget you?
When the awaited beam of dawn seeps through the window sills
In my room that is larger than yesterday
On my illuminated window
I write over and over “I love you”
The countless stars in the night sky
Even though all is beautiful
There is one bright star within my heart
Only one, that is you
When the awaited beam of dawn seeps through the window sills
In my room that is larger than yesterday
On my illuminated window
I write over and over “I love you”
