English Translation | The Light

Kim Jae Joong

Four seasons pass and my body withers away
The warm wind blows upon me (I don’t like it)
It’s not different from the scattering flowers, this hesitation
I want to become a lonely fallen leaf

I still want to stay here
No, I don’t want to fly
Just in my place, yes, I want to remain
I don’t want to know the world, my heart hurts too much
Even if there’s no time, what I am sure of is

I’m living in the light
Oh~
I’m controlling that light
Oh~

I will shine my light
In this dark world
I’m controlling, rolling, rolling my light
I’m standing in the light

Time flows
It’s equally given to everyone
But when it stops and I look around
My hands and my heart often ache painfully

All of this is nourishment for my future
Every minute and second, my heart is full
Reflecting my childhood self just as it was
It’s okay even if my shadow grows distant

I want to love myself
I don’t want to go to the sky
Just in my place, yes, I want to remain
I want to be outside the world
To embrace you
Even if there are no expectations, what I am sure of is

I’m living in the light
Oh~
I’m controlling that light
Oh~

I will shine my light
In this dark world
I’m controlling, rolling, rolling my light
I’m standing in the light

Remember me, leave me now, I won’t live in the same place
However I live, I’m okay, don’t worry, living in the light
With you

I’m controlling that light
I will be here, above the light
I’m shining it
I’m controlling, rolling, rolling my light
I’m living in the light
