Doyoung - 눈의 꽃 – Snow Flower English Translation Lyrics

눈의 꽃 – Snow Flower English Translation Lyrics by Doyoung

어느새 길어진
The shadow that has suddenly grown longer

그림자를 따라서
Following the shadow

땅거미 진 어둠 속을
Through the dusk-darkened night

그대와 걷고 있네요
I find myself walking with you

손을 마주 잡고
Holding hands together

그 언제까지라도
For however long it may be

함께 있는 것만으로
Just being with you

눈물이 나는 걸요
Brings tears to my eyes

바람이 차가워지는 만큼
As the wind grows colder

겨울은 가까워 오네요
Winter draws near

조금씩 이 거리 그 위로
Gradually, over this street

그대를 보내야 했던
The season when I had to let you go

계절이 오네요
Is coming again

지금 올해의 첫 눈꽃을 바라보며
Now, as I gaze at the first snowflake of the year

함께 있는 이 순간에
In this moment together with you

내 모든 걸 당신께 주고 싶어
I want to give you all of me

이런 가슴에 그댈 안아요
And embrace you with this heart

약하기만 한 내가 아니에요
I am not just someone weak

이렇게 그댈 사랑하는데
As I love you like this

그저 내 맘이 이럴 뿐인 거죠
It’s simply how my heart feels

그대 곁이라면
If I am by your side

또 어떤 일이라도
I feel like I can do anything

할 수 있을 것만 같아
Such a feeling arises in me

그런 기분이 드네요
That’s the kind of mood I feel

오늘이 지나고
After today passes

또 언제까지라도
And forever more

우리 사랑 영원하길
I pray our love lasts forever

기도하고 있어요
I am praying

바람이 나의 창을 흔들고
When the wind shakes my window

어두운 밤마저 깨우면
And wakes even the darkest night

그대 아픈 기억마저도
Even your painful memories

내가 다 지워 줄게요
I will erase them all

환한 그 미소로
With that radiant smile

끝없이 내리는 새하얀 눈꽃들로
With endlessly falling pure white snowflakes

우리 걷던 이 거리가
The street where we walked together

어느새 변한 것도 모르는 체
Without realizing how it has changed

환한 빛으로 물들어 가요
Is being dyed with bright light

누군갈 위해 난 살아갔나요
Was I living for someone else?

무엇이든 다 해주고 싶은
Wanting to give everything

이런 게 사랑인 줄 배웠어요
I learned this is what love means

혹시 그대 있는 곳 어딘지 알았다면
If only I knew where you are

겨울밤 별이 돼 그대를 비췄을 텐데
I would have become a winter night star to light your way

웃던 날도 눈물에 젖었던 슬픈 밤에도
On days you smiled, and on sorrowful nights soaked with tears

언제나 그 언제나
Always, forever

곁에 있을게요
I’ll be by your side

지금 올해의 첫 눈꽃을 바라보며
Now, as I gaze at the first snowflake of the year

함께 있는 이 순간에
In this moment together with you

내 모든 걸 당신께 주고 싶어
I want to give you all of me

이런 가슴을 그대 아나요
Do you know this heart of mine?

울지 말아요 나를 바라봐요
Don’t cry; look at me

그저 그대의 곁에서
I only want to be by your side

함께 있고 싶은 맘뿐이라고
With just the desire to stay together

다신 그댈 놓지 않을게요
I’ll never let you go again

끝없이 내리며 우릴 감싸온
Falling endlessly, wrapping around us

거리 가득한 눈꽃 속에서
Among the snowflakes filling the street

그대와 내 가슴에 조금씩
Within your heart and mine, little by little

작은 추억을 그리네요
Small memories are forming

영원히 내 곁에 그대 있어요
You are forever by my side
