Gotta Go (가라고) Lyric Translation

Updated: Jul 3, 2022





 

Composed by SUNMI & FRANTS

Lyrics by SUNMI

Arranged by FRANTS



Note: Sunmi originally thought this song has the potential to be a title track but was told by her company that it's "too strong" and that's how the song ended up being the OST of a web drama called XX.



[Verse]

그만 울어대 boy (Ring, ring)

지겹지도 않니 넌

keuman ureodae boy (Ring ring)

jigyeobjido anni neon

Stop crying boy (ring ring)

Aren't you tired?


뭐가 불만인데?

네가 나한테 뭔데?

mweoga bulmaninde?

niga nahante mweonde?

What's the matter?

Who are you to me? (=who do you think you are?)


말하려는 게 뭔데?

뭘 말하고 싶은데?

mar-haryeoneun ge mweonde?

mweol mar-hago shipeunde?

What are you trying to say?

What do you wanna say?


그럼 뭐 어쩔 건데?

난 내 갈 길 갈게

keureom mweo eojjeol geonde?

nan nae kal gil kalge

Well, what are you going to do?

I'll go my own way


[Pre-Chorus]

Don't make me ring in the night

I got no time to hang up


대답 없는 날 붙잡을 생각은 하지 마

지금은 전화를 받을 수 없어

daedab eomneun nal butjabeul saenggageun haji ma

jigeumeun jeonhwareul bedeul su eobseo

Don't try to hold on to me when I don't reply

I can't answer the phone right now


I'm sorry oh no


[Chorus]

*(Gotta, gotta, gotta go)

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

*wordplay: gotta go and 가라고 /karago/ = [I told you to] go away sound very similar and sunmi has intentionally made the song in a way that both meanings can fit

[Post-Chorus]

난 나빠 Everyday

넌 아파 매일매일

nan nabba Everyday

neon apa maeilmaeil

I'm bad every day

You get hurt every day

나는 여기까지니까

naneun yeogiggajinikka

I'll end [it] here so


Don't miss me boy


[Verse]

또 왜 이러나 싶네

속이 타들어 간대

ddo wae ireona shimne

sogi tadeureo gandae

Wondering what's wrong again

Saying you're burning up inside


같은 말만 하네

뚜뚜뚜

관심 없어 알아서 해

gateun malman hane

ddudduddu

gwanshim eobseo araseo hae

You keep saying the same things

Blah blah blah

I'm not interested so do whatever you want

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't make me ring in the night

I got no time to hang up


대답 없는 날 붙잡을 생각은 하지 마

지금은 전화를 받을 수 없어

daedab eomneun nal butjabeul saenggageun haji ma

jigeumeun jeonhwareul bedeul su eobseo

Don't try to hold on to me when I don't reply

I can't answer the phone right now


I'm sorry oh no


[Chorus]

*(Gotta, gotta, gotta go)

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

*wordplay: gotta go and 가라고 /karago/ = [I told you to] go away sound very similar and sunmi has intentionally made the song in a way that both meanings can fit

[Post-Chorus]

난 나빠 Everyday

넌 아파 매일매일

nan nabba Everyday

neon apa maeilmaeil

I'm bad every day

You get hurt every day

나는 여기까지니까

naneun yeogiggajinikka

I'll end [it] here so


Don't miss me boy


[Bridge]

I'm so done with your calls

You're not the one that I hold


그만 내려놔

제발 이 손 좀 치워

keuman naeryeonwa

jebal i son jom chiweo

Stop and let it go

Please get your hands off


And I would just say like

[Chorus]

*(Gotta, gotta, gotta go)

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

*wordplay: gotta go and 가라고 /karago/ = [I told you to] go away sound very similar and sunmi has intentionally made the song in a way that both meanings can fit

[Post-Chorus]

난 나빠 Everyday

넌 아파 매일매일

nan nabba Everyday

neon apa maeilmaeil

I'm bad every day

You get hurt every day

나는 여기까지니까

naneun yeogiggajinikka

I'll end [it] here so


Don't miss me boy

[Outro]

I gotta, gotta, gotta go

I gotta, gotta, gotta go
