BTS (방탄소년단) - 'Answer: Love Myself' Lyrics (With English Translation)
[Jimin] : 눈을 뜬다 어둠 속 나
I open my eyes; I'm in the darkness,
심장이 뛰는 소리 낯설 때
When the sound of my heart beating feels unfamiliar,
[Jungkook] : 마주 본다 거울 속 너
I meet you in the mirror,
겁먹은 눈빛 해묵은 질문
With fearful eyes, suppressed questions
[Suga] : 어쩌면 누군가를 사랑하는 것보다 더 어려운 게 나 자신을 사랑하는 거야
Maybe, loving oneself is harder than loving someone else
솔직히 인정할 건 인정하자
Let's admit it honestly,
니가 내린 잣대들은 너에게 더 엄격하단 걸
The standards you set for yourself are even stricter,
니 삶 속의 굵은 나이테
It's because within your own life,
그 또한 너의 일부 너이기에
Those standards are a part of you,
이제는 나 자신을 용서하자 버리기엔
Now, forgive yourself, it's too soon to give up,
우리 인생은 길어
Our lives are long,
미로 속에선 날 믿어
In the maze, trust yourself,
겨울이 지나면
When winter passes,
다시 봄은 오는 거야
Spring will come again
[Jungkook] : 차가운 밤의 시선
The gaze of a cold night,
초라한 날 감추려
Trying to hide my pathetic self
몹시 뒤척였지만
I tossed and turned a lot,
[Jimin] : 저 수많은 별을
But to reach those countless stars,
맞기 위해 난 떨어졌던가
Did I have to fall?
[Jungkook] : (Hey)
[Jimin] : 저 수천 개 찬란한
Is it just me as the target
화살의 과녁은 나 하나
Of thousands of dazzling arrows?
[Jin] : You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself
내 숨 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해
With every breath, every step I've taken, I answer
[V] : 어제의 나 오늘의 나 내일의 나
Yesterday's me, today's me, tomorrow's me
[Jungkook] : I'm learning how to love myself
[V, Jungkook] : 빠짐없이 남김없이 모두 다 나
Every bit of me, without missing anything
[RM] : (RM) 정답은 없을지도 몰라
There might not be a correct answer
어쩜 이것도 답은 아닌 거야
Maybe this is not the answer either
그저 날 사랑하는 일조차
But even loving myself,
누구의 허락이 필요했던 거야
Why did I need someone's permission?
난 지금도 나를 또 찾고 있어
I'm still searching for myself even now,
But 더는 죽고 싶지가 않은 걸
But I don't want to die anymore,
슬프던 me
The me who was sad,
아프던 me
The me who was in pain,
더 아름다울 美
Will become more beautiful
[j-hope] : 그래 그 아름다움이
Yeah, that beauty,
있다고 아는 마음이
Having the knowledge of it,
나의 사랑으로 가는 길
Is the path to my love
가장 필요한 나다운 일, eh
The most necessary thing for myself, eh
지금 날 위한 행보는
Now, the steps I take for myself,
바로 날 위한 행동
Are actions for myself,
날 위한 태도
An attitude for myself,
그게 날 위한 행복
That is my happiness,
I'll show you what I got
두렵진 않아 그건 내 존재니까
I'm not afraid, that's my existence
Love myself
[Jin] : 시작의 처음부터
From the beginning of the start,
끝의 마지막까지
Until the end,
해답은 오직 하나
There's only one answer,
[Jimin] : 왜 자꾸만 감추려고만 해
Why do I keep trying to hide,
니 가면 속으로
In your mask
[Jungkook] : (Hey)
[Jimin] : 내 실수로 생긴
Even the scars I got from my mistakes,
흉터까지 다 내 별자린데
They are all my constellations
[V] : You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself oh oh oh
내 숨 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해
With every breath, every step I've taken, I answer,
[Jungkook] : 내 안에는 여전히 oh oh oh
Inside me, there's still oh oh oh
[Jimin] : 서툰 내가 있지만 oh oh oh
My unskilled self, but oh oh oh
[Jin] : You've shown me I have reasons
I should love myself oh oh
[Jungkook] : (I'm learning how to love myself)
[Vocal line] : 내 숨 내 걸어온 길 전부로 답해 oh oh oh
With every breath, every step I've taken, I answer,
[V] : 어제의 나 오늘의 나 내일의 나
Yesterday's me, today's me, tomorrow's me,
[Jungkook] : I'm learning how to love myself
[V, Jungkook] : 빠짐없이 남김없이 모두 다 나
Every bit of me, without missing anything
