    II. Lyrics

    내가 누울 자린 아마도

    naega nuul jarin amado

    Where I lay


    한참 더 위로
    hancham deo wiro

    Will be somewhere much higher

    아니 적당히 미끈한 곳에
    ani jeokdanghi mikkeunhan gose

    No, I refuse to take root

    뿌리내리긴 싫어

    ppurinaerigin sirheo

    On a ground too smooth


    내 뒤로 착착 따라붙어
    nae dwiro chakchak ttarabuteo

    Follow my lead

    다 예쁘게 줄지어
    da yeppeuge juljieo

    Make a pretty queue

    난 기어코 하늘에 필래
    nan gieoko haneure pillae

    I will blossom in the sky by all means

    음, What a tiny leader

    eum, What a tiny leader

    Mmm, what a tiny leader


    아슬아슬히 나는
    aseuraseulhi naneun

    I’m a recklessly flying

    홀씨 하나 또 다른
    holssi hana tto dareun

    Single dandelion seed, setting out

    길을 향해서
    gireul hyanghaeseo

    On a different road

    Fly high to bloom

    혹시 나의 안부를
    hoksi naye anbureul

    If anyone asks

    묻는 누군가
    mutneun nugunga

    How I’m doing

    있거든 전해줘

    itgeodeun jeonhaejwo

    Send them the news


    걔는 홀씨가 됐다구
    gyaeneun holssiga dwaetdagu

    “She has become a dandelion seed”

    날 따라, gonna go to win
    nal ttara, gonna go to win

    Follow me, gonna go to win

    날 따라, 날아가 꼭대기루
    nal ttara, naraga kkokdaegiru

    Follow me, fly high to the top

    You say "후"
    You say 'hu'


    I may fly

    You say "후"
    You say "hu"


    Then I fly


    날 따라, Even without wings
    nal ttara, Even without wings

    Follow me, even without wings

    날 따라, 떠올라 공중으루
    nal ttara, tteoolla gongjungeuru

    Follow me, rise up into the air

    You say "후"
    You say "hu"


    I may fly

    You say ‘후’
    You say "hu"


    Then I fly


    다 날 볼 수 있게 날아 줄게 한가운데
    da nal bol su itge nara julge hangaunde

    I’ll fly in the center for everyone to see

    시력을 위해 꼭 지참해 니 sunglass
    siryeogeul wihae kkok jichamhae ni sunglass

    Watch your sight, better bring your sunglass

    올려보면 눈부셔
    ollyeobomyeon nunbusyeo

    The sky above is blinding

    고소공포 하나도 안 무셔

    gosonggongpo hanado an musyeo

    But I’m not afraid of heights at all


    따가운 태양과 무지 가까운 거리

    ttagaun taeyanggwa muji gakkaun geori

    I’ll fly so close to the scorching sun

    까지 올라가 난 무심히 내려보리

    kkaji ollaga nan musimhi naeryeobori

    And look down without a care

    구름을 골라타

    gureumeul gollata

    I’ll pick a cloud to sit on

    간만에 한바탕

    ganmane hanbatang

    And might as well cause a ruckus

    싹 어질러볼까

    ssak eojilleobolkka

    Just for fun


    빙글빙그르 나는

    binggeulbinggeureu naneun

    I’m a dandelion seed spinning

    홀씨 하나 가파른

    holssi hana gapareun

    Round and round

    바람을 타고

    barameul tago

    Riding the brisk wind

    Fly high to bloom


    혹시 나의 안부를

    hoksi naye anbureul

    If anyone asks

    묻는 누군가

    mutneun nugunga

    How I’m doing

    있거든 전해줘

    itgeodeun jeonhaejwo

    Send them the news


    걔는 홀씨가 됐다구
    gyaeneun holssiga dwaetdagu

    “She has become a dandelion seed”

    날 따라, gonna go to win
    nal ttara, gonna go to win

    Follow me, gonna go to win

    날 따라, 날아가 꼭대기루
    nal ttara, naraga kkokdaegiru

    Follow me, fly high to the top

    You say "후"
    You say "hu"


    I may fly

    You say "후"
    You say "hu"


    Then I fly


    날 따라, Even without wings
    nal ttara, Even without wings

    Follow me, even without wings

    날 따라, 떠올라 공중으루
    nal ttara, tteoolla gongjungeuru

    Follow me, rise up into the air

    You say "후"

    You say "hu"


    I may fly


    You say "후"
    You say "hu"


    Then I fly


    앞길이 만만치 않아도
    apgiri manmanchi anado

    The road ahead won’t be easy

    엄살은 뒤로

    eomsareun dwiro

    But I won’t fuss about it

    내 선택이야 늘 그랬듯이
    nae seontaegiya nesl geuraetdeusi

    This was my choice, it always has been

    쉬울 확률은 zero

    swiul hwakryureun zero

    The odds of it being easy are zero


    남은 거 탈탈 털어줄게

    nameun geo taltal teoreojulge

    I’ll leave everything I have left to you

    모두 행운을 빌어

    modu haenguneul bireo

    Wish you all good luck


    구태여 인사하고 갈래

    gutaeyeo insahago gallae

    I’ll even bother to say goodbye

    May God be with ya


    See ya
