Oh manamae nogadhae

Oh my heart, do not ache
Deep darkness, won't you fade away?
Even at the slightest sound,
Doesn't this tender body tremble in fear?
Won't the wounds deep in my heart heal?
Won't this suffering vanish like an illusion?
I lost my way and drifted away,
Yet you came to protect me.
Oh, this painful separation...
A sorrow my soul can barely bear,
The moment I see you running to me,
My life blossoms because of you...
Our journey,
Do we know how far it goes?
Our very life,
Were we born just to be together?
I will remain an unchanging bond of love.
Oh, this painful separation...
A sorrow my soul can barely bear,
The moment I see you running to me,
My life blossoms because of you...
It is only you...
It is only you...
It is only you...
It is only you...
Ha... aaa... aaa... ha... aa.. aa
