Composed by SUNMI & FRANTS
Lyrics by SUNMI Arranged by FRANTS
Note: Sunmi got inspired to write this song after thinking about how "Gravity on the moon is 1/6 so would heavy feelings also be lighter there?". She's written the song about her thoughts and she's mentioned that she also thought about her brothers while writing. After writing the song, she realized it's not just her story, but the story of many other people so she hopes it can comfort people when they're feeling heavy.
Translation Note: 마음 /ma-eum/ means heart/chest but could also mean feeling, mind, mood, soul. Though I used heart in the translation, you could replace it with the other words if that makes more sense to you. E.g. There's too much weight on my heart ➝ I feel too heavy
[Verse]
오늘 바람은 선선히
여유롭기까지 해
*또 다른 내 바람은
지나치리만큼 서두르려 해
oneur parameun seonseonhi
yeoyurobgiggaji hae
ddo dareun nae parameun
jinachirimankeum seodureuryeo hae
Today's wish is relaxed and graceful
Another wish of mine hastily passes by
*wordplay: 바람 /param/ has multiple meanings, wish/desire & wind/breeze in this case; That's why she's comparing the speed and flow of her desires.
짓눌린 마음이
버겁다 버겁다
jitnollin ma-eumi
beogeobda beogeobda
There's too much weight
Pressing down on my heart
무기력한 생각에
잠길 즈음에
물 한 잔과 세 알에
그 많던 잡음들이
사라져
mugiryeog-han saenggag-e
jamgil jeu-eum-e
mul han jangwa se ar-e
keu mandeon jabeumdeuri
sarajyeo
While lost in dull thoughts,
With a glass of water and three pills
All the noise disappears
[Pre-chorus]
Don't wanna feel gravity
Why is it so annoying
Don't wanna feel anything
Take my pressure to the moon
Astronaut
[Chorus]
마음에도 무게가 있나
ma-eum-edo mugega inna
Is something weighing on my mind?
Then I wanna go to the moon
내가 바람과 함께 사라진다면
홀로 남겨진 넌 누가 지켜줄까
naega paramgwa hamgge sarajindamyeon
hollo namgyeojin neon nuga jikyeojulgga
If I go with the wind,
Who would protect you who's left alone?
미움도 참 덧없다
이 밤도 저만치 저무는 것을
mi-umdo cham deodeobda
i bamdo jeomanchi jeomuneun geoseul
Hatred is in vain
This night is ending too
[Verse]
지나가버린 시간은
내게 더 머무르라 해
jinagabeorin shiganeun
naege deo meomureura hae
The time that passes
Tells me to stay longer
후회뿐인 기억에
따스한 이불을 꼭 끌어안아
huwebbunin ki-eoge
ddaseuhan ibureul ggog ggeureo-ana
I hug a warm blanket
Of my regretful memories
짓눌린 마음이
버겁다 버겁다
jitnollin ma-eumi
beogeobda beogeobda
There's too much weight
Pressing down on my heart
무기력한 생각에
잠길 즈음에
물 한 잔과 세 알에
그 많던 잡음들이
사라져
mugiryeog-han saenggag-e
jamgil jeu-eum-e
mul han jangwa se ar-e
keu mandeon jabeumdeuri
sarajyeo
While lost in dull thoughts,
With a glass of water and three pills
All the noise disappears
[Pre-chorus]
Don't wanna feel gravity
Why is it so annoying
Don't wanna feel anything
Take my pressure to the moon
Astronaut
[Chorus]
걸음에도 무게가 있나
keoreum-edo mugega inna
Are my steps heavy too?
Then I wanna go to the moon
내가 바람과 함께 사라진다면
홀로 남겨진 넌 누가 지켜줄까
naega paramgwa hamgge sarajindamyeon
hollo namgyeojin neon nuga jikyeojulgga
If I go with the wind,
Who would protect you who's left alone?
미움도 참 덧없다
이 밤도 저만치 저무는 것을
mi-umdo cham deodeobda
i bamdo jeomanchi jeomuneun geoseul
Hatred is in vain
This night is ending too
[Outro]
거기선 나의 게으른 발걸음도
뛰어노는 저 아이들과 같을까
keogiseon na-ae ke-eureun palgeoreumdo
ddwi-eononeun jeo a-yi-deulgwa gateulgga
Would my heavy footsteps
Be like kids jumping around, there?
미움도 참 덧없다
이 밤도 저만치 저무는 것을
mi-umdo cham deodeobda
i bamdo jeomanchi jeomuneun geoseul
Hatred is in vain
This night is ending too
