Beyond the translation

This song expresses the overwhelming joy, disorientation, and wonder that comes with discovering a new direction in life through love. The protagonist feels transformed, comparing her uninhibited emotions to a surging ocean after experiencing feelings she had never known before. Surprised by this state of bliss, she affectionately asks her beloved to confirm whether this newfound happiness is real or merely a dream.
