[Verse 1: IU]
이상하게도 요즘엔
Isanghagedo yojeumen
Strangely, these days
그냥 쉬운 게 좋아
Geunyang swiun ge joha
I like things easy
하긴 그래도 여전히
Hagin geuraedo yeojeonhi
But still,
코린 음악은 좋더라
Korin eumakeun johdeora
I like Corinne's music
Hot pink보다
Hot pinkboda
Rather than hot pink
진한 보라색을 더 좋아해 Mmm
Jinhan borasaekeul deo johahae mmm
I like a deep purple, mmm
또 뭐더라 단추 있는 Pyjamas, lipstick
Tto mwodeora danchu itneun Pyjamas, lipstick
I also like pyjamas with buttons and lipstick
좀 짓궂은 장난들
Jom jitgujeun jangnandeul
These are jokes
[Chorus 1: IU]
날 좋아하는 거 알아
Nal johahaneun geo ala
I know you like me
Ooh I got this I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
Ije jogeum al geot gata nal
I think I know a little bit about myself now
[Verse 2: IU]
긴 머리보다
Gin meoriboda
Rather than long hair
반듯이 자른 단발이 좋아
Bandeusi jareun danbali joha
I definitely like short hair
하긴 그래도
Hagin geuraedo
But still
좋은 날 부를 땐 참 예뻤더라
Joheun nal bureul ttaen cham yeppeotdeora
I was pretty when I sang Good Day
Oh 왜 그럴까
Oh wae geureolkka
Oh why is that?
조금 촌스러운 걸 좋아해 Mmm
Jogeum chonseureoun geol johahae mmm
I like things a little outdated, mmm
그림보다 빼곡히 채운
Geurimboda ppaegokhi chaeun
Rather than pictures I like filled
Palette, 일기, 잠들었던 시간들
Palette, ilgi, jamdeuleotdeon sigandeul
palettes, diaries, times I was asleep
[Chorus 2: IU]
I like it I'm twenty five
날 미워하는 거 알아
Nal miwohaneun geo ala
I know you hate me
Ooh I got this I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
Ije jogeum al geot gata nal
I think I know a little bit about myself now
[Verse 3: G-Dragon]
어려서 모든 게 어려워
Eoryeoseo modeun ge eoryeowo
Everything's hard 'cause you're young
잔소리에, ‘매’ 서러워
Jansorie, ‘mae’ seoreowo
Getting upset when you're being nagged
꾸중만 듣던 철부지, ‘애’
Kkujungman deutdeon cheolbuji, ‘ae’
A child who used to only get scolded
겨우 스무고개 넘어
Gyeou seumugogae neomeo
Barely passed twenty
기쁨도 잠시 어머?!
Gippeumdo jamsi eomeo?!
Happiness is just momentary?!
아프니까 웬 청춘이래
Apeunikka wen cheongchunirae
It hurts 'cause you're young
지은아 오빠는 말이야
Jieuna oppaneun maliya
지금 막 서른인데,
Jigeum mak seoreuninde,
just turned 30
나는 절대로 아니야
Naneun jeoldaero aniya
But I'm not
근데 막 어른이 돼
Geunde mak eoreuni dwae
But I'm an adult
아직도 한참 멀었는데
Ajikdo hancham meoleotneunde
Although I'm not there yet
너보다 다섯 살 밖에 안 먹었는데
Neoboda daseot sal bakke an meokeotneunde
I'm only five years older than you
스물 위, 서른 아래
Seumul wi, seoreun arae
Past twenty, not yet thirty
‘고맘때’ Right there
‘gomamttae’ right there
In between, right there
애도 어른도 아닌 나이 때
Aedo eoreundo anin nai ttae
When I'm not a kid or an adult
그저 ‘나’일 때
Geujeo ‘na’il ttae
When I'm just me
가장 찬란하게 빛이 나
Gajang chanranhage bichi na
I shine the brightest
어둠이 드리워질 때도 겁내지 마
Eodumi deuriwojil ttaedo geobnaeji ma
So don't get scared when darkness comes
너무 아름다워서 꽃잎 활짝 펴서
Neomu areumdawoseo kkotip hwaljjak pyeoseo
You're so beautiful that your flower will bloom
언제나 사랑받는 아이 You
Eonjena sarangbadneun ai you
You're always loved, you
Palette, (Eh) 일기, (Eh) 잠들었던 시간들
Palette, (Eh) ilgi, (Eh) jamdeuleotdeon sigandeul
Palette, (Eh) diaries, (Eh) times I was asleep
[Chorus 1: IU]
I like it I'm twenty five
날 좋아하는 거 알아
Nal johahaneun geo ala
I know you like me
Ooh I got this (I got this) I'm truly fine
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
Ije jogeum al geot gata nal
I think I know a little bit about myself now
(아직 할 말이 많아)
(Ajik hal mali manha)
(Still have a lot to say)
[Chorus 2: IU]
I like it (Like it) I'm twenty five (Oh)
날 미워하는 거 알아
Nal miwohaneun geo ala
I know you hate me
Ooh I got this (I got this) I've truly found
이제 조금 알 것 같아 날
Ije jogeum al geot gata nal
I think I know a little bit about myself now
