Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation
나는 한때 내가 이 세상에
Na-neun han-ttae nae-ga i se-sang-e
사라지길 바랬어
Sa-ra-ji-gil ba-raess-eo
온 세상이 너무나 캄캄해
On se-sang-i neo-mu-na kam-kam-hae
매일 밤을 울던 날
Mae-il bam-eul ul-deon nal
그래도 언젠가는 햇살이 비출까
Geu-rae-do eon-jen-ga-neun haet-sal-i bi-chul-kka
아픔은 잠시 스쳐 갈 뿐이야
A-peum-eun jam-si seu-chyeo gal ppun-i-ya
수고했어 나의 청춘아
Su-go-haess-eo na-ui cheong-chun-a
