Unlucky is the opening first track of IU's fifth Korean E.P, Love Poem.
[Verse 1]
기를 쓰고 사랑해야 하는 건 아냐
Gireul sseugo saranghaeya haneun geon anya
You don't have to love her with all your heart
하루 정도는 행복하지 않아도 괜찮아
Haru jeongdoneun haengbokhaji anado gwaenchana
You don't have to be happy for a day or so
그럼에도 역시 완벽하군 나의 여인 um
Geureomedo yeokshi wanbyeokhagun naye yeoin um
And yet you are perfect, my lady Umm
[Verse 2]
여전히 무수한 빈칸들이 있지
Yeojeoni musuhan binkandeuri itji
There's still a lot of blanks
끝없이 헤맬 듯해
Kkeuteopshi hemael deuthae
It's like I'm on end.
풀리지 않는 얄미운 숙제들 사이로
Pulliji anneun yalmiun sukjedeul sairo
between unsolved and unsavory homework
[Pre-Chorus]
마치 하루하루가
Machi haruharuga
As if every day
잘 짜여진 장난 같아
Jal jjayeojin jangnan gata
It's like a well-organized joke.
달릴수록 내게서 달아나
Dallilsurok naegeseo darana
The more you run, the more you run away from me
[Chorus]
Just life we're still good without luck
길을 잃어도 계속 또각또각 또 가볍게 걸어
Gireul ireodo gyesok ttogakttogak tto gabyeobge georeo
Even if you're lost, keep walking lightly
(Take your time)
There’s no right 실은 모두가 울고 싶을지 몰라
There’s no right shireun moduga ulgo shipeulji molla
There's no right, actually, everyone might want to cry
슬퍼지고 싶지 않아서
Seulpeojigo shipji anaseo
I don't want to be sad
화내는지도 몰라
Hwanaeneunjido molla
Maybe he's angry
[Verse 3]
여전히 무수한 질문들이 있지
Yeojeoni musuhan jilmundeuri itji
There's still a lot of questions
이번에도 틀린 듯해
Ibeonedo teullin deuthae
I'm afraid I'm wrong again
아주 사소한 토씨 하나의 차이로
Aju sasohan tothi hanaye chairo
By a tiny fraction of the time
[Pre-Chorus]
마치 하루하루가
Machi haruharuga
As if every day
삐뚤은 동그라미 같아
Ppittureun donggeurami gata
It's like a circle
도망쳐도 여기로 돌아와
Domangchyeodo yeogiro dorawa
If you run away, you come back here
[Chorus]
Just life we're still good without luck
비틀거려도 계속 또박또박 똑바르게 걸어
Biteulgeoryeodo gyesok ttobakttobak ttokbareuge georeo
Even if you stumble, keep walking straight
(Take your time)
There’s no right 때론 모두가 외로운지도 몰라
There’s no right ttaeron moduga oerounjido molla
There's no right, maybe everyone's lonely
지워지고 싶지 않아서
Jiweojigo shipji anaseo
I don't want to be erased.
악쓰는지도 몰라
Akseuneunjido molla
I don't even know if he's using it
[Post-Chorus]
(Lalalala la la I love ma days)
I know that life is sometimes so mean
(Lalalala la la I love ma days)
It is true. So I'm trying
[Bridge]
난 나의 보폭으로 갈게
Nan naye bopogeuro galge
I'm going to my stride.
불안해 돌아보면서도
Buranae dorabomyeonseodo
In spite of one's uneasiness
별 큰일 없이 지나온 언제나처럼
Byeol keunil eopshi jinaon eonjenacheoreom
As always, nothing much has happened
이번에도 그래 볼게 음
Ibeonedo geurae bolge eum
I'll try that again. Mm-hmm.
[Chorus]
Just life we're still cool without luck
길을 잃어도 계속 또각또각 또 가볍게 걸어
Gireul ireodo gyesok ttogakttogak tto gabyeobge georeo
Even if you're lost, keep walking lightly
There’s no right 실은 모두가 모르는지도 몰라
There’s no right shireun moduga moreuneunjido molla
There's no right, actually
[Outro]
어쩌면 나름대로 더디게 느림보 같은
Eojjeomyeon nareumdaero deodige neurimbo gateun
Maybe it's a slow, slow-moving thing
지금 이대로 괜찮은지도 몰라
Jigeum idaero gwaenchaneunjido molla
I don't even know if it's okay
