Oh my life (Oh my life...)

With your gaze,

right now, deep in my heart,

you set a fire.

Oh my life (Oh my life...)

In the corner of my eyes,

an endless rainy season

you have given me.

Oh my eyes (Oh my eyes...)

In these tears,

do not drown, do not drown,

stay afloat like a boat (like a boat...).

My love is poetry,

do not throw it away, do not cast it aside

beneath your feet.

My sweet honey, my pure honey,

I am broken inside, my heart aches.

My gentle deer, my golden deer,

I am burning up, my life is slipping away.

Oh memory (Oh memory...)

You are my only thought, my girl,

do not leave me, do not fade away,

come back to me, please come.

Oh dream (Oh dream...)

You are my only dream, my girl,

without you, the path I walk

is a path of fire.

Oh my heart (Oh my heart...)

what has happened to you?

Do not wither, do not lose hope,

why are these tears flowing?

Oh world (Oh world...)

has everything turned into a lie?

Will it never unite, will it never unite,

is this true love destined to part?

My sweet honey, my pure honey,

I am broken inside, my heart aches.

My gentle deer, my golden deer,

I am burning up, my life is slipping away.

Oh.. ooh-hoo... ooh-ooh... hoo..

Ooh... ooh-hoo..

{My sweet honey, my pure honey,

I am broken inside, my heart aches.

My gentle deer, my golden deer,

I am burning up, my life is slipping away} (2)

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

This poignant song conveys the deep sorrow, anguish, and heartbreak of a lover suffering from the pain of separation. Through poetic apostrophe, the protagonist addresses various elements—life, eyes, memory, dream, heart, and the world—reflecting how the beloved's gaze planted a burning fire in their soul and brought an endless rainy season of tears to their eyes. Asking if true love will ever find its way to reunion, the lover laments the agony that consumes their life, pleading for their feelings not to be trampled upon like a worthless object.
