Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
걸어가는 내내 바라보다가
그냥 눈물이 나서
그냥 울기만 했어
지금껏 모르고 산 내가 미워서
앞에선 태연한 척 웃기만 해서
항상 내 앞에선 강한 척 해서
쓸쓸한 뒷모습을 몰랐던 거야
그때는 몰랐죠 너무나 어렸죠
누구보다 외로울 텐데
다가가지 못했죠
이제야 알았죠
조금 늦은 건 아니죠
너무나 하고 싶은 말
영원히 사랑합니다, 내 아버지
한참을 그렇게 난 바라보다가
달려가서 그냥 안아버렸어 umm
마냥 울고 싶어서
그 품에 울고 싶어서
당신의 고마움이 너무 서러워서
그때는 몰랐죠 너무나 어렸죠
누구보다 외로울텐데
다가가지 못했죠
이제야 알았죠
조금 늦은 건 아니죠
너무나 하고 싶은 말
영원히 사랑합니다, 내 아버지
한숨 한 번 푹 쉬면 다 나아진 듯 센 척
내겐 보여요
그대의 흐르지 않는 눈물
상처 가득한 가슴
울지 않곤 아팠을 흉터
다 내가 만든 건데
자꾸 해요 왜 그대 탓을
And your eyes showed you were tired
But you hid it such a liar
이제 내가 안아 줄게요
내게 기대도 돼요
And your eyes showed you were tired
But you hid it such a liar
그대는 영원한 나의 높은 하늘이에요
거칠어진 손에 주름진 눈가에
쓸쓸해진 뒷모습마저
난 익숙하지 않아서
내가 그랬나봐 아프게 했나봐
뒤돌아선 뒷모습마저 내가 남긴 짐만 같아서
해준 게 없지만
난 드린 게 하나 없지만
너무나 하고 싶은 말
영원히 사랑합니다, 내 아버지 (oh oh)
The song "Father" by BTOB is a moving tribute to the sacrifices and love of a father. The opening lines reflect the singer's regret and sorrow for not being able to see the struggles of their father, and only realizing it too late. Despite his tired and worn-out appearance, the father would pretend to be strong in front of his family, leaving his son unaware of the pain he was going through. The son expresses his profound sadness and repulsion for himself in not recognizing his father's efforts earlier.
The lyrics then go on to describe how the son can now see how his father was always struggling. He laments his inability to comfort his dad, feeling helpless in his younger days. After reflecting, the son declares his affection and love for his father, wishing to hold him in his arms, and crying together with him. The song speaks to the universal themes of regret and appreciation, the loss of time and the power of memory. It encourages listeners to appreciate and cherish their parents while they are still here.
Overall, the song is a poignant tribute to a father's love and sacrifices, encapsulating the themes of regret for not realizing earlier, and gratitude for being there. The melody and vocals add extra emotional depth to the lyrics, making it a powerful ballad that resonates with many.

쓸쓸해진 뒷모습이 낯설어
Since you have become so sad and lonely, I don't recognize you anymore
걸어가는 내내 바라보다가
As I walk, I always take a look back
그냥 눈물이 나서
I just break down and cry
그냥 울기만 했어
All I did was weep
지금껏 모르고 산 내가 미워서
I hate myself for not knowing, for living this way until now
앞에선 태연한 척 웃기만 해서
In front of you, I pretend to be lighthearted and laugh
항상 내 앞에선 강한 척 해서
I always put on a front of being strong and powerful in front of you
생각조차 못했어 아닌 줄만 알았어
I didn't even think about it or understand, I thought everything was fine
쓸쓸한 뒷모습을 몰랐던 거야
I didn't realize you would be so lonely and unhappy
그때는 몰랐죠 너무나 어렸죠
Back then, I didn't know, I was so young
누구보다 외로울 텐데
Being alone would have been so hard for you
다가가지 못했죠
I wasn't able to come close to you
이제야 알았죠
Finally, I understand
조금 늦은 건 아니죠
It's not too late, is it?
너무나 하고 싶은 말
I have so much to say
영원히 사랑합니다, 내 아버지
I will love you forever, my father
한참을 그렇게 난 바라보다가
I stare at you for a while just like that
달려가서 그냥 안아버렸어
I run to you and just hug you
마냥 울고 싶어서
All I want to do is cry
그 품에 울고 싶어서
All I want to do is cry in your embrace
당신의 고마움이 너무 서러워서
I'm so touched by your kindness
한숨 한 번 푹 쉬면 다 나아진 듯 센 척
I exhale as if everything will be alright, pretending to be strong
내겐 보여요
I can see now
그대의 흐르지 않는 눈물
The tears you never shed
상처 가득한 가슴
A heart filled with scars
울지 않곤 아팠을 흉터
My wounds wouldn't heal without crying
다 내가 만든 건데
I caused them all myself
자꾸 해요 왜 그대 탓을
I keep blaming you, why is that?
거칠어진 손에 주름진 눈가에
Your rough hands with wrinkled eyes
쓸쓸해진 뒷모습마저
Even your lonely expression
난 익숙하지 않아서
I am so unfamiliar with it all
내가 그랬나봐 아프게 했나봐
I guess I was the one who hurt you
뒤돌아선 뒷모습마저
Even your back turned to me
내가 남긴 짐만 같아서
It feels like I only left a burden for you
해준 게 없지만
Even though I have not done anything for you
난 드린 게 하나 없지만
I have never given anything to you
너무나 하고 싶은 말
I have so much to say
영원히 사랑합니다, 내 아버지 (oh oh)
I will love you forever, my father

English Translation:
His lonely back seemed so unfamiliar
I just watched him as he walked along
And tears just formed so I just cried
Because I hated myself for not knowing all this time
Because he always pretended to be calm and smiled
Because he always pretended to be strong in front of me
I didn’t even think of it, I thought I would never see it
So I didn’t know about his lonely back
I didn’t know back then, I was too young
You must have been lonelier than anyone else but I didn’t approach you
Now I finally know, I hope it’s not too late
These are the words I wanted to say so much, I love you forever
My father
After watching him for a long time
I ran to him and just hugged him
I wanted to just cry, I wanted to cry in his arms
Because my gratitude toward you was so sad
I didn’t know back then, I was too young
You must have been lonelier than anyone else but I didn’t approach you
Now I finally know, I hope it’s not too late
These are the words I wanted to say so much, I love you forever
My father
You pretend to feel better after letting out a deep sigh
I can see your invisible tears
You don’t cry over your scarred heart with the painful wounds
I made those scars but why do I keep blaming you?
And your eyes showed you were tired
But you hid it, such a liar
Now I will embrace you, you can lean on me
And your eyes showed you were tired
But you hid it such a liar
You are forever a high sky to me
Your beaten hands, your wrinkled eyes
Your lonely back – I’m not used to any of those
Maybe that’s why I was like that, that’s why I hurt you
Even your turned back seems like baggage that I left behind
I haven’t done anything for you, I haven’t given anything to you but
These are the words I wanted to say so much, I love you forever
My father
