j-hope - 'Pandora's Box' Lyrics




j-hope - 'Pandora's Box' Lyrics (With English Translation)


[j-hope] : They call me hope Do you know why I am hope? 판도라의 history 그게 내 born Pandora's history, that's my born

힌간에게 주어진 큰 신들의 성심 The great gods' good faith given to human kind

판도라가 남긴 상자 속의 한 빛 A light left in the box by Pandora

때 묻지 않은 소년에게 대입 Put into an innocent boy

Till the end, 방탄의 희망이 되라는 frame Till the end, the frame of being Bangtan's hope

그렇게 주어진 운명의 수여식 Given like that in the ceremony of fate

That's my name 신화로 깊어지는 의미와 함께 It's meaning deepening with the myth

On my way (ha ha)

J to the hope 정 to the 희망 Jung to the hope

Jack in the box 판도라의 손 Pandora's hand

하나 남은 희망 The one thing left, hope

Jack in the box

Someone's light, someone's smile Someone's hope,

내 활동들은 someone's life My activities are someone's life

시간은 이름대로 흘러가

Time goes by, I'm true to my name

someone's star 내 영혼이 다듬어지며 생기는 모토와 바이브 The motto and vibe that comes as my soul is refined

그렇게 제출해 내 이력서, 비로소 That's how I submit my resume, finally

첫 도약, hope world, 필요했던 필연성 The first leap, hope world, the inevitability that was needed

계속 발전을 꿈꿔 Continuously dreaming of growth/progress

What's my path What do I have to say Just keep on doing my thang

내가 그린 그림 The picture that I painted

이 dream은 제우스가 그린 유일무이 큰 그림인가 Is this dream the only big picture that Zeus painted? 나를 불러들인 주인의 호기심 The curiosity of the owner that summoned me

이건 마치 판도라의 운명적인 criminal

It's like Pandora's fateful criminal

그래 겪어보니 세상이 보여 Yeah, after experiencing it, I can see the world

인간을 끓게 하는 수만 가지의 고열 The tens of thousands of fevers that make people boil

욕심, 시기, 원한, 질투 Greed, envy, resentment, jealousy

복수, 또 미움, 어쩌면 no reason

Revenge, hate, maybe there's no reason

We need hope 그게 많든 아님 적든 Whether it's a lot or little

우린 뒤로 걸어도 무섭지 않을 벤자민 버튼 We're not scared of walking backwards, we're Benjamin Button

앞장서 조금이나마 느낄 수 있다면은

As a leader, if I could make people feel even a little,

일깨워 주고파 각자 숨은 작은 영웅을 I'd want to remind them that each of them has a hidden little hero

이 상자란 우물 안속 frog This box is a frog in a well

*frog in a well: a proverb meaning that someone's viewpoint is limited by their own experiences, used to express narrow or closed mindedness.

큰 세상 밖으로 jump Out into the big world jump

재앙을 마주해도 부딪치고 싶어 Even if I face disaster, I want to run into it

Jack in the box Look at my title 열어 본 다음 이젠 믿어보는 After opening it, now I believe it

나의 이름 (ayy)

My name

J to the hope 정 to the 희망 Jung to the hope

Jack in the box 판도라의 손 Pandora's hand

하나 남은 희망 The one thing left, hope

Jack in the box J to the hope 정 to the 희망 Jung to the hope

Jack in the box 판도라의 손 Pandora's hand

하나 남은 희망 The one thing left, hope

Jack in the box

J to the hope 정 to the 희망 Jung to the hope

Jack in the box 판도라의 손 Pandora's hand

하나 남은 희망 The one thing left

Jack in the box (ya) J to the hope 정 to the 희망 Jung to the hope

Jack in the box 판도라의 손 Pandora's hand

하나 남은 희망 The one thing left, hope

Jack in the box
