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)
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
The lyrics of "Butterfly" by BTS highlight the fragility of a romantic relationship and the fear of losing the one you love. The song begins with a plea to not say anything or think too much, just smile and stay with the singer. The chorus compares the person being addressed to a butterfly, beautiful but also flighty and difficult to catch. The singer expresses their fear of losing their loved one and asks if they will stay by their side and promise to never leave. The bridge of the song adds to the sense of uncertainty, with the singer questioning if what they are experiencing is real or just a dream. While the singer's love is said to be eternal, there is a sense of anxiety throughout the song about the fleeting nature of a relationship.
As with many of BTS's songs, "Butterfly" is open to interpretation, but it seems to touch on themes of love, loss, and the insecurity that can come with being in a relationship. The butterfly metaphor used throughout the song is a classic representation of change and transformation, and the singer's fear of losing the person they love suggests that they may not be ready for the potential changes that come with a relationship. The song's lyrics are emotive and paint a vivid picture of a narrator who is deeply in love, but also deeply afraid of losing that love.

이 칠흑 같은 어둠 속 날 밝히는 나비효과
A butterfly effect that brightens me in this dark veil of night
니 작은 손짓 한 번에 현실을 잊어 난
With just one small gesture from you, I forget reality
살며시 쓰다듬는 바람 같아
You feel like a breeze that gently strokes me
살포시 표류하는 먼지 같아
You feel like dust softly drifting away
넌 거기 있지만 왠지 닿지 않아 stop
You're there, but for some reason, I can't reach you. Stop.
꿈 같은 넌 내게 butterfly, high
You, who feel like a dream to me, my butterfly, high
심장은 메마른 소리를 내
My heart makes a parched sound
꿈인지 현실인지 알 수 없네
I can't tell if it's a dream or reality
나의 해변의 카프카여
My Kafka on the shore
저기 숲으로 가진 말아줘
Don't take me to that forest
내 마음은 아직 너 위에 부서져 조각조각 까맣게 녹아 흘러
My heart is still breaking into pieces for you, melting and flowing like blackness
(난 그냥 이대로 증발하고 싶어)
(I just want to evaporate like this)
내 사랑은 영원인 걸
My love is eternal
It's all free for you baby
It's all free for you, baby
