방탄소년단 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
넌 아무 말도 꺼내지도 마
그냥 내게 웃어줘
난 아직도 믿기지가 않아
이 모든 게 다 꿈인 것 같아
사라지려 하지마
Is it true? Is it true?
Untrue, untrue, you, you, you
곁에 머물러줄래 (줄래)
내게 약속해줄래 (줄래)
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까 겁나 겁나 겁나
시간을 멈출래 (줄래)
이 순간이 지나면 (지나면)
없었던 일이 될까 널 잃을까 겁나 겁나 겁나
Butterfly, like a butterfly
마치 butterfly, bu butterfly 처럼
Butterfly, like a butterfly
마치 butterfly, bu butterfly 처럼
넌 마치 butterfly (butterfly, butterfly)
멀리서 훔쳐봐 손 닿으면 널 잃을까
이 칠흑 같은 어둠 속 날 밝히는 나비효과
니 작은 손짓 한 번에 현실을 잊어 난
살며시 쓰다듬는 바람 같아
살포시 표류하는 먼지 같아
넌 거기 있지만 왠지 닿지 않아 stop
꿈 같은 넌 내게 butterfly, high
Untrue, untrue, you, you, you
곁에 머물러줄래 (줄래)
내게 약속해줄래 (줄래)
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까 겁나 겁나 겁나
시간을 멈출래 (줄래)
이 순간이 지나면 (지나면)
없었던 일이 될까 널 잃을까 겁나 겁나 겁나
심장은 메마른 소리를 내
꿈인지 현실인지 알 수 없네
나의 해변의 카프카여
저기 숲으로 가진 말아줘
내 마음은 아직 너 위에 부서져 조각조각 까맣게 녹아 흘러
(난 그냥 이대로 증발하고 싶어)
내 사랑은 영원인 걸
It's all free for you baby
네 곁에 머물러줄래 (줄래)
내게 약속해줄래 (줄래)
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까 겁나 겁나 겁나
시간을 멈출래 (줄래)
이 순간이 지나면 (지나면)

The lyrics of "Butterfly" by BTS convey a message of vulnerability and fear of losing someone who is cherished. The song encourages the listener to not think or say anything, but simply smile. The singer expresses disbelief that everything happening feels like a dream and pleads for the person not to disappear. The chorus questions the truth and beauty of this person, admitting to being both amazed and afraid of them.
The lyrics continue by asking if this person will stay by their side and make a promise. The fear of breaking or losing that person is emphasized, as the singer wonders if they should stop time to prevent the moment from passing and potentially losing the person forever. The butterfly becomes a powerful symbol in the song, representing the person: beautiful, delicate, and capable of brightening the dark. The singer is captivated by the butterfly-like gestures and the ability to forget reality.
As the song progresses, the lyrics express uncertainty and confusion, as the singer is unable to distinguish between dreams and reality. They describe themselves as a Kafka on the beach, asking the person not to take them to the forest where their heart will break into pieces and dissolve into nothingness. Despite the fear and uncertainty, the singer proclaims their love is eternal.
Overall, "Butterfly" is a song that delves into the complexities of emotions, vulnerability, and the fear of losing someone who holds immense value.
