In a corner of my soul,
Male: Pain builds up heavily,
Male: Clouds from far away
Male: Gather and drizzle love.
Male: In this moment of parting,
Male: Tears well up in my eyes.
Oh my darling, do not leave,
My heart cannot bear this, girl.
Do not say anything else,
Come with me, my life.
Will I crumble to dust?
Will I turn into fine powder?
Will I shatter into pieces?
Do not drift far away from me.
Unable to sleep at night,
Just to see you,
I came over to your house.
Under the moonlit terrace,
Holding hands, we embraced tightly.
That first kiss you gave me,
It made my blood rush inside.
In the way you look at me,
A thousand battles rage within me.
My darling, do not leave... oh,
My heart cannot bear this.
Do not say anything else,
Come with me, my life.
Will I crumble to dust?
Will I turn into fine powder?
Will I shatter into pieces?
Do not drift far away from me.
In a corner of my soul,
Pain builds up heavily.
Clouds from far away
Gather and drizzle love.
Female: In this moment of parting,
Female: Tears well up in my eyes.
Oh my darling, do not leave,
My heart cannot bear this, girl.
Do not say anything else,
Come with me, my life.
Will I crumble to dust?
Will I turn into fine powder?
Will I shatter into pieces?
Do not drift far away from me.
Unable to sleep at night,
Just to see you,
I came over to your house.
Under the moonlit terrace,
Holding hands, we embraced tightly.

Male: My darling, do not leave,
Female: Pain builds up heavily.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

The song depicts the agonizing emotional turmoil of lovers facing impending separation. The speaker expresses how a heavy burden of sorrow builds up in a corner of their soul as farewell approaches. Memories of intimate moments—a late-night rendezvous on the rooftop terrace, a tight embrace under the moonlight, and a passionate first kiss—contrast sharply with the impending grief of distance.
