Farewell Song
Nell — "Losers Recipe" English lyrics
Looking around, looking around, Hovering to see whether There's somewhere to stick, Begging here and there.
Jabbering on excitedly— Empty vessels makes the most noise. There's no end to greed And the effort is always mediocre.
It's shallow. It's so shallow That before it touches me It disappears.
A hundred, a thousand times, I'll concede and even understand, But if you're asking me to participate, I'll decline. After playing to your heart's content, using the remaining time To half-ass it just doesn't fit my style at all. It doesn't suit my tastes, Your recipe.
Oblivion as a sleep aid, Avarice as a stimulant— In that empty can of a head, Delusions flower.
You want to hold a knife. With two empty hands, You're only satisfied After mangling everything.
It's superficial. It's so superficial That even playing along Isn't any fun.
Jealousy, Hate, envy, (Bad memories…) Colorless, tasteless life mixed with a spoon of fantasy. Your recipe, always a cup half empty. Layers and layers of brazenness covering the fear inside. Ear-shattering, discordant melody, blood spit from your lips. Want to shove your bookmark wherever, but the story's never yours. The enemy in the mirror's irritated and tormented you your whole life; Instead, you'll break screens with bloody fists. Watching the world be flooded and flail around in the morning rain You were too afraid to face alone must be fun, 'Cause you don't give a, you don't give a Fuck. Please just disappear. What a waste of air.
Before putting on the pretense of refinement, Please at least wipe off your drool. Does someone else's grass look greener? Do you not see the effort behind it?
You wouldn't know, Having had free rides your whole life, But choices come at a cost. So shut your trap.
Even if your skull is hollow, Your tongue darts like a snake. Before making a lame excuse, At least wet your lips.
For someone who's always exploited others, You probably don't know this either, But if you wanna do some chopping, At least wipe your cutting board. (You don't even have the basics.)
What's the point of telling you? It's just tiresome. And makes my mouth hurt. And is a waste of time.
Nell — "Blue Eyes" English lyrics
I'll give you everything. Just say the word. You have that ability. It is wholly your choice. Leave the rest to fate.
You're what I want, want, want, want you.
(Blue eyes!) Do you believe me? (Blue eyes!) Take it or leave it. (Blue eyes!) Do you believe me? (Blue eyes!) Take it or leave it. (Hey! Hey!)
You're always a terrible being. It wouldn't be enough to sell your soul To atone, but instead You're feeding your desires.
You're always a terrible being. It wouldn't be enough to sell your soul To atone, but instead You're feeding your desires. (Hey! Hey!)
(Blue eyes!) Do you believe me? (Blue eyes!) Take it or leave it. (Blue eyes!) Do you believe me? (Blue eyes!) Take it or leave it.
You're always a terrible being. It wouldn't be enough to sell your soul To atone, but instead You're feeding your desires.
You're always a terrible being. It wouldn't be enough to sell your soul To atone, but instead You're feeding your desires.
(Blue eyes! Hey!) (Blue eyes! Hey!) (Blue eyes! Hey!) (Blue eyes! Hey!)
Nell — "VAMP" English lyrics
Even if I try to change the conclusion, it's futile. After going around and around, they all end up on the same ending.
Even if I get tired of a person, I want to hold onto that person. Even amidst saying I'm going to forget it all, I find myself carving it deep in my heart again. I'm diligently collecting the scattered fragments Like this.
Even if by chance I know the answer, it's meaningless. There is nowhere to run and hide, to escape, here.
Even when I'm exhausted by sadness, it doesn't wait for me. Even amidst saying I'm going to forget it all, It starts sweeping over me like a wave again. I'm prying opening that stitched-up wound again (my burnt-out heart) Like this. (My burnt-out heart.) (My burnt-out heart.)
Heart burning away day by day, Heart stripped bare, unable to be concealed. Fill a glass to the brim with shards of regret. One glass, then another—after emptying them until I'm drunk, The place I run to hide is just the heart of Judas. After even that is all done and over with, The flames within me spread faster and faster. Everything I couldn't hold onto Disappears.
Nell — "Don't Let Me Go" English lyrics
I'm on thin ice. It's precarious. Will it be able to withstand the weight of this loss?
These are just continual moments Where it wouldn't be strange to break.
So the rainbow that must be hidden somewhere In the cloud-filled sky can form, (Rainbow, rainbow!) Sprinkle the rain. (Pour that rain on me!) You have to grab onto me. Kindle a fire in my shattered heart (Fire, fire!) So it all burns. Don’t let me go!
I'm at the edge of a cliff. It's precarious. My fingertips hanging on are losing their strength.
These are just continual moments Where it wouldn't be surprising to fall.
So the rainbow that must be hidden somewhere In the cloud-filled sky can form, (Rainbow, rainbow!) Sprinkle the rain. (Pour that rain on me!) You have to grab onto me. Kindle a fire in my shattered heart (Fire, fire!) So it all burns. Don’t let me go!
Don’t let me go! Don’t let me go!
Don’t let me drown in fear. Don’t let me disappear. Don’t leave me stranded here. Don’t leave me dying here. Don't let me go!
Don’t let me drown in fear. Don’t let me disappear. Don’t leave me stranded here. Don’t leave me dying here.
Don't let me go! Don’t let me go! Don’t let me go!
Nell — "Only One" English lyrics
When you have more memories than dreams, I will disappear without a word.
But not yet. Though sometimes it is a nightmare, You are always my only one.
Take my breath away. I'm ready for anything. Chain my heart into your flames. (My only one.)
Even if only a scraggly twig remains, I'll still always be together with you.
These aren't empty words. You can't even imagine it. You're forever my only one.
Take my breath away. I'm ready for anything. Chain my heart into your flames. Take my breath away. I'm completely ready. Chain my heart until the end.
Even if we're jammed into a fiery pit, Whether we become monsters' prey or not, That's not important If that’s what it takes, ‘Cause you, you're my only one.
Losing you is my only fear I know. Losing you is my only fear I know.
Take my breath away. I'm ready for anything. Chain my heart into your flames. Take my breath away. I'm completely ready. Chain my heart until the end. (My only one.)
(My only one.)
(My only one.)
"Sweet Delusion" translation notes
The smoke without a fire idiom is a little different and was hard to incorporate into the sentence but I think I got it decently? The idiom in Korean is kinda like, "chimney smoke when it shouldn't [be there]" rather than specifically referencing an invisible fire like the English. But just calling it "untimely smoke spewing from a chimney to blanket the sky" doesn't recall the English idiom very well, so I shoehorned the "without a fire" in there.
The "aoung" at the end of the first line of the prechorus is a hiding sound effect. We don't have an equivalent in English so I left it out of the translation.
The truth and sincerity lines I couldn't capture the tone right so I gave up there and stuck to meaning. They had an irreverent tone, dismissive of truth and sincerity, and kinda coarse language. Not cursing, just kinda rough and dismissive.
The welcome line is just impossible to not be awkward lol we just don't say it like that in English. "Welcome to here where you have come" "welcome, having come here" it's just so awkward
Nell — "Sweet Delusion" English lyrics
Lap it all up until you can see the bottom. Isn’t it as savory as freshly popped popcorn? The smoke without a fire spews out, Blanketing the whole sky.
Everyone covers their eyes anyway. Let’s drink this poisoned cup and dance. There’s nothing fun in truth. There’s no use for sincerity.
We all dance in a trance, And no one wants to wake.
Isn't it creepy, when you face its true nature? It's like a procession of the dead. Isn't it chilling, the cold of an empty soul? Let's burn it all, another mass mania.
Everyone covers their eyes anyway. Let’s drink this poisoned cup and dance. We can retch day in day out, But we're all already poisoned anyway.
We all live in a trance, And no one wants to wake. Welcome to here, Where we bow before the fake. Delusions lead the way.
(Everyone covers their eyes anyway.)
We all live in a trance, And no one wants to wake. Welcome to here, Where we bow before the fake. Delusions lead the way.
Listening to the new album at my desk because work is crazy this week and it’s so gooooood I’m sitting here jamming out and grinning. Exactly what I needed today.
I mean I’d think that about anything Nell released because my fangirl heart is primed to love it, but four tracks in and so far they’re all going on my Nell playlist. They’re all so listenable.
Sooooo weird to hear a feature on a Nell song though doesn’t feel like a Nell song, like a random Tablo song added in that happens to be mostly a Jongwan feature
Seori — "My Gravity" English lyrics
I wandered aimlessly in search of the light, 'Cuz even if I have so much in this city, I don't have you. I don't have you.
I revolve above the roads we used to walk. Like a habit, I call your name. My orbit Is around you.
A strong pull— Take me To where you are.
How do I live without you? How do I breathe? Nobody holding me Without my gravity. How do I love without you? How do I sing? Nobody holding me Without my gravity.
Ha-ah, ah~ Ha-ah, ah~ Oh, oh-oh oh, Oh, oh-oh oh...
In this pitch-black darkness, Even the air in this room Reminds me of you.
Even those many nights Kept awake with tears, I just miss them.
A strong pull— Take me Back to your side.
How do I live without you? How do I breathe? Nobody holding me Without my gravity. How do I love without you? How do I sing? Nobody holding me Without my gravity.
How do I live without you? How do I breathe without you? How do I sing without you? How do I love? Oh, nobody,
How do I love without you? How do I love? Nobody holding me Without my gravity.
Ha-ah, ah~ Ha-ah, ah~ Oh, oh-oh oh, Oh, oh-oh oh...
Ha-ah, ah~ Ha-ah, ah~ Oh, oh-oh oh, Oh, oh-oh oh...
WE'RE SO BACK. Album preview is up and the new songs sound soooooo good, as if there was ever any doubt.

Golden Child (Daeyeol, Seungmin, Donghyun) — “둘만의 천국” | “Our Heaven” English lyrics
Title’s alternate translation: “A Heaven for Two”
When you want to cry for some reason, When you feel you’re lonely, Then think of me.
When your heart is empty and you want to fill it, When you can only let out sighs, Then think of me.
You are a comfort to me. Just your existence is enough, So don’t worry about a thing. I’ll be by your side.
That lovely girl Looks at me and cries. When you cry, my heart crumbles and it hurts. Now that girl Looks at me and smiles. With just that, here is a heaven for two.
Sometimes when I feel I’m alone, When I want to give up, Then I think of you.
When everybody looks happy but me, When it’s hard and I’m tired, Then I think of you.
You are a comfort to me. I can feel it in my heart, So I’ll be your umbrella on a rainy day.
That lovely girl Looks at me and cries. When you cry, my heart crumbles and it hurts. Look at me, like this. I look at you and smile. With just that, this is a heaven just for us two.
Don’t forget: no matter when, I’ll take you into my arms And wipe away your tears.
That lovely girl Looks at me and cries. When you cry, my heart crumbles and it hurts. Now that girl Looks at me and smiles. With just that, here is a heaven for two.
Golden Child — “Oasis” English lyrics
Well done. Let’s take a break up. Yeah, let’s rest for a bit before we go. It might be a bit high there where the clouds reach, But I’m okay because we’re together. We’ll gonna be fine. (We’ll gonna be fine.)
Sometimes it’s a sun day in the morning, And even then, I feel so cloudy. When I’m a little more exhausted, looks rainy. On worse days, it blows in like windy day; When everything rages on like that, You can stop to rest here for a bit. Every night in paradise, we all hold hands And prepare to go out.
Just take me to the edge together. More than fear, I’m excited. For our upcoming journey: We’ll get the things that we couldn’t get, And we’ll gradually have even more reasons to laugh. So let’s rest a bit—an oasis just for us.
In the desert, you can see many stars. What if there isn’t a place for us? (Don’t worry.) Hey, hey, hey, don’t thinking anything. Just rest, rest.
We are our own oasis. Yeah~ A haven just for all of us. We are our own oasis. Yeah~ Hey guys, open your eyes. It must be party tonight In oasis.
Yeah, Like a dream, How amazing the stars are on this marvelous night. We live in our dream. I want to be like this dream. Let’s put our hands together and pray. The feeling of becoming one, I feel good. To become stars in the night sky, we just go, To that light visible between a hundred fingers.
Tonight, there isn’t a single star. Maybe our place has been emptied out. (Don’t worry.) Hey, hey, hey, don’t thinking anything. Just rest, rest.
We are our own oasis. Yeah~ A haven just for all of us. We are our own oasis. Yeah~ Hey guys, open your eyes. It must be party tonight.
You can stop this pedaling— I’ll catch you. Once you’ve rested enough, We can all go together To this night’s end. (Let me say:)
Fly away~ (Let’s fly up!) Fly away~ (Go up, go up, go higher~) Fly away~ (Let’s fly up~) Fly away! Yeah~ Oh yeah, alright. Yeah~ Yeah~
Well done. Let’s take a break up. Yeah, let’s rest for a bit before we go. Even if your feet hurt, it’s all fine. Take my hand and let’s go together. Our oasis.
Noting for followers that one of my goals for this year is to translate the entire Golden Child discography, so you'll be seeing them sporadically throughout the year. RIP Woollim (they're not dead yet, but most of their artists are gone and they are very obviously broke)
SHINee — "Atmos" English lyrics
You shone And the air lightened. I get so close. Softly, in flows the lingering future.
Some kind of vibe Like dancing, rising, And again like walking barefoot— Even sound is wrapped in distance. Feels like I, Anything is possible.
Slow it down. (Yeah) Come like light, then Stay in this moment for life (for life). Please stay. From my fingertips Feeling to the edge of consciousness.
So, Atmos We don't try to match. Before the night’s gone, Two are one. Within this immersion, (mood mood) Live like, love like
Colors spread. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Heat curls. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Ears open. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Come into my body. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) The future lingers.
The empty spaces become distinct. Beyond the invisible, I see it all. Irrefutable as a fingerprint, It is approaching And I’m losing my mind.
Like this, sync. Our eyes meet— Oh, we’re back in phase, yeah. (For us, anything is possible, so)
Slow it down (Yeah) I am here. Stay in this moment for life (for life). I will bloom. Though, countlessly, a long time will flow on...
So, Atmos We don't try to match. Before the night’s gone, Two are one. Within this immersion, (mood mood) Live like, love like
Colors spread. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Come into my body. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) The future lingers.
Your permeating presence, As if completing it, stay right here.
Let's let it all out. As if this moment Is the last. Before the night is gone, Night is gone. (It’s alright, whoa~!)
So, Atmos We don't try to match. Before the night’s gone, Two are one. Within this immersion, (mood mood) (you, only you) Live like, love like
Colors spread. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Heat curls, (permeating). (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Ears open. (You and I, you and I) (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) Come into my body. (Oh my, oh my, oh my, oh my) The future lingers.

Lovelyz (Baby Soul, Sujeong) and Golden Child (Tag, Joochan) — "순천의 하늘 아래에서" | "Under the Sky of Suncheon" English lyrics
In spaces between the cozy clouds, Dazzling light shines down And illuminates you and me, mm.
Blades of grass dance in the reedbed, And birds sing in the sky.
I am slowly imbued by you, the one who came into my heart. The love I wanted so much comes to me and holds me tight. Oo oo oo, lalala lala~ Oo oo, (lalala lala~)
Stay still and just think about us Under the sky of Suncheon— This moment, slowly, mm.
Even when I close my eyes, you're all I see. How are you the only thing my eyes can see?
I am slowly imbued by you, the one who came into my heart. The love I wanted so much comes to me and holds me tight. Oo oo oo, lalala lala~ Oo oo, (lalala lala~)
It's too remarkable to call happenstance. You're exactly Proportional to this weather and this landscape. It's like I can't help but fall for you all over again. No, everything is in unison with you. You look like a little star, and I'm falling down. Everything gonna be fine when I'm with you, baby. Yeah, yeah, may we be as everlasting as the stars in the sky.
Oo oo oo, lalala lala~ Oo oo, (lalala lala~) Oo oo oo, lalala lala~ Oo oo oo~
