CLOSE YOUR EYES ‘내 안의 모든 시와 소설은’

— CLOSE YOUR EYES ‘내 안의 모든 시와 소설은’ 

다시 미뤄진 하루 끝  
Dasi mirwojin haru kkeut  
The day has stretched on again  

아마 시간은 열두 시쯤  
Ama siganeun yeoldu sijeum  
It’s probably around midnight  

오늘따라 잠도 오지 않는 듯해  
Onjeltara jamdo oji anhneun deut hae  
It seems as if sleep won’t come tonight  

불현듯 네가 떠오를 땐  
Bulhyeondeut nega tteooreul ttaen  
When you suddenly cross my mind  

어느새 미소를 짓곤 해  
Eoneusae misoreul jjitgon hae  
I find myself smiling  

그냥 나는 그래 Mmm  
Geunyang naneun geurae Mmm  
I just do Mmm  

오늘따라 네 새벽이 궁금해  
Onjeltara ne saebyeogi gunggeumhae  
I'm curious about your night today  

눈을 뜬 채 널 꿈꾸는 밤  
Nuneul tteun chae neol kkumkkuneun bam  
A night where I dream of you with my eyes open  

아껴뒀던 노랫말처럼 피어올라  
Akkyeoddeot noatmalcheoreom pieollah  
Surfacing like the lyrics I had cherished  

Then I loop back, then I loop back, then I loop back  

몇 번을 되뇌었던 선율  
Myeot beon-eul doeneoeotdeon seonnyul  
The melody I've repeated over and over  

그건 너의 이름  
Geugeon neoui ireum  
It's your name  

h/c
내 안의 모든 시와 소설은  
Nae aneui modeun si wa soseol-eun  
All the poems and novels within me  

너로 수놓아진 얘기들  
Neuro sunoajin yaegideul  
Are stories embroidered with you  

Look, everything I do, everything I do    

네 존재만으로  
Ne jonjaemanu-ro  
Just with your presence  

서툴게 적어낼까 하나 둘  
Seotulge jeog-eonaelkkana hana dul  
Should I write it clumsily, one by one  

우리라고 써 다음 Page를  
Urirago sseo da-eum Page-reul  
Write 'us' on the next page  

So tell me what to do, tell me what to do  

허공에 뱉으면 다 전해질까  
Heogonge baet-eumyeon da jeonhaejilkkayo  
Would it reach you if I say it out loud  

If I write it, does it matter?   

빈틈없게 채워가는 공백  
Bintteum-eobsge chaewoe ganeun gongbaeg  
Filling the void without a gap  

줄거리의 Climax  
Julgeori-ui Climax  
The climax of the plot  

아직은 먼 듯해  
Ajigeun meon deut hae  
It still feels distant  

(What a shame)  

널 그려낼 단얼 쫓아서 빙빙  
Neol georyeonal dan-eol jjotsaseo bingbing  
Going around in circles to find the words to describe you  

공을 들여 한 문장씩  
Gong-eul deulyeo han munjangssik  
Taking my time, one sentence at a time  

말은 길수록 왠지 가벼워만 보여  
Mal-eun gilsurok waenji gaph-eowoman boyeo  
The longer the words, the more they seem shallow  

힘을 줘 눌러쓴 글씨에 내 맘 담아서  
Him-eul jwo nul-leoseun geulssi-e nae mam damaseo  
I press down hard, writing with all my heart  

흰 여백 위로 춤을 추는 손끝  
Huin yeobaeg wilo chum-eul chunun sonkkeut  
My fingertips dance across the empty page  

겨우 시작이래도  
Gyeou sijag-iraedo  
Even if it's just the beginning  

일단은 펜을 잡을 뿐  
Iltan-eun pen-eul jab-eul ppun  
For now, I just pick up the pen  

때론 그런 생각들이 들곤 해  
Tteoleun geureon saeng-gagdeuri deulgon hae  
Sometimes those thoughts cross my mind  

언어도 채 없었던 순간  
Eon-eodo chae eobs-eossdeon sun-gan  
In moments when there were no words  

최초의 말은 ‘사랑해’였을지 몰라  
Cheos-ui mal-eun ‘salanghae’yeoss-eulji molra  
The first word might have been 'I love you'  

Then I loop back, then I loop back, then I loop back  

몇 번을 되뇌었던 선율  
Myeot beon-eul doeneoeotdeon seonnyul  
The melody I've repeated over and over  

그건 너의 이름  
Geugeon neoui ireum

허공에 뱉으면 다 전해질까  
Heogonge baet-eumyeon da jeonhaejilkkayo  
Would it reach you if I say it out loud  

수없이 쓰고 지워봐도  
Sun-eopsi sseugo jiwo-bwado  
No matter how many times I write and erase them  

오롯이 너를 담을 순 없는걸  
Olot-i neoreul damul sun eobsneungeol  
Can never fully capture you  

내 마음속 널 빼곡히  
Nae maeumsog neol bbaegokhi  
I fill my heart with you  

그리는 이 밤  
Geurineun i bam  
Tracing you endlessly on this night  

내 안의 모든 시와 소설은

Does it matter?  
So If I write it, does it matter?   
Does it matter?  
So tell me what to do, tell me what to do  

허공에 뱉으면 다 전해질까  
Heogonge baet-eumyeon da jeonhaejilkkayo  
Would it reach you if I say it out loud  

If I write it, does it matter?
