Beyond the sky,
My love, I am flying.
Like a pair of clouds,
My love, I am floating.
Because of you, inside me today,
A gentle drizzle is falling.
Back and forth, oh today,
My feet keep pacing.
My love, my love, a giant wave
Crashes against me and rushes past.
My love, my love, with this love,
What am I supposed to do?
Oh ho ooo ooo... (4)
I live in your house,
And yet you feel so far away.
Male: You lean against my shoulder,
Oh, pity my young heart!
My bangles yearn for you,
And pick fights with you every day.
Male: Our rooms fall asleep,
Just so we can talk of love.
I am floating across the sky,
And you are my stars, my girl.
Female: I am your rainbow,
And you are my sky.
Whenever we talk,
I lose all my composure.
Female: Even knowing that,
I keep scolding you to my heart's content.
Aa... aa... aa...
Aa... a.aa... aa... aa... aa... aa..
Aa... aa... aa..
Because of you, inside me today,
A gentle drizzle is falling.
Back and forth, oh today,
My feet keep pacing.
My love, my love, a giant wave
Crashes against me and rushes past.
My love, my love, with this love,
What am I supposed to do?

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This romantic song captures the euphoria, restlessness, and emotional friction experienced by two lovers sharing a domestic space. The lyrics describe love as a transcendent force that makes one feel as if they are floating beyond the skies like clouds or being swept away by a giant wave. Despite living under the same roof and sharing physical proximity, ego and unexpressed feelings create a sweet, painful distance between them.
