해바라기 – 허각

It seems like the wind even makes my heart swell with tears
Is it you, or the lingering regret of letting you go?
Even in my waiting dreams, I seem to toss and turn
Wondering if you, who left, might actually be coming back

Whether in joy, sorrow, or pain
I miss you so unbearably—you, who cried and laughed with me

I love you, I love you; as I erase all the words in the world
Only this one remains, though it’s late
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, for not treasuring you more
For making you live within my meager happiness

It seems we’re drifting apart by two steps at a time
You move further ahead toward farewell, and I return to our memories
I must have lost my way in this world
As if I’ve stopped at you, so that no one else can enter my arms

Even if the wind comes to dry my tears again
I can still feel that the wind is where you once stayed

I love you, I love you; as I erase all the words in the world
Only this one remains, though it’s late
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, for not treasuring you more
For making you live within my meager happiness

Love is always indebted to farewell, and that farewell
Pays it back with love once again
Since I’ll leave all the memories you gave me here
Please fill them up in the next life
