You strike right at my heart,
And I drift away like soft cotton.
With love served in a glass,
Look at me stumbling and losing myself to it.
You strike right at my heart,
And I drift away like soft cotton.
With love served in a glass,
Look at me stumbling and losing myself to it.
My umbrella and your rain are love,
The price of your answer is love.
My words and your breath are love,
Your breath becoming my life is love.
A dream within a dream is love,
A sky without any dreams is love.
A forest like a net is love,
And my days caught in that net are love.
O beauty with pearl-like teeth,
I want to sign over all my wealth to you.
O beauty with wide, striking eyes,
Even the moon should fall for your beauty.
O beauty with pearl-like teeth,
I want to sign over all my wealth to you.
O beauty with wide, striking eyes,
Even the moon should fall for your beauty.
Like an eyelid,
I want to stay upon your eyes,
Just to live a single day with you.
On that day, my cloud
Will float far away,
Restless on its own, all because of you.
Like an eyelid,
I want to stay upon your eyes,
Just to live a single day with you.
On that day, my cloud
Will float far away,
Restless on its own, all because of you.
Today, any two people
Can easily come together.
Who knows? One day,
You might lean upon my shoulder.
O beauty with pearl-like teeth,
I want to sign over all my wealth to you.
O beauty with wide, striking eyes,
Even the moon should fall for your beauty.
O beauty with pearl-like teeth,
I want to sign over all my wealth to you.
O beauty with wide, striking eyes,
Even the moon should fall for your beauty.

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This upbeat romantic song expresses the intense feelings of a lover who is completely mesmerized by his beloved. He describes how her presence lightens his heart like cotton and intoxicatedly sways his mind. He marvels at her beauty—her pearl-like teeth and round eyes—declaring that even the moon would swoon over her beauty, and poetically offers all his wealth just to win her affection. Expressing a deep emotional connection, he yearns to protect and stay close to her like an eyelash protecting an eye, finding every aspect of life, dream, and breath intertwined with love for her.
