Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
どのくらい私は変われたのだろう?
自分では見えないの
憧れた姿に近づいてるの?
Wanna be, wanna be, 素敵な
Gonna be, gonna be, 大人に
なれるようにいたい、でも
Be ladies, but we
心は hold on
夢みる気持ちを、
失わないでいるから
Stay girls いつまでも、
歩き出した日のように
We wanna stay girls
We wanna stay girls
笑ったり、泣いていたり、
思い出したら
あふれだすこの memories
どんな日も、どんな時も
あなたの声に支えられた
Everyday, everyday, ひとりじゃ
All the way, all the way
ないから
たどり着けた、この場所に
Be ladies, but we
Stay girls
むじゃきな pure hearts
どんな未来にいたって、
変わらないままでいようね
Stay girls
ひたむきな brave hearts
放さないから、ずっと
We're gonna stay girls
We're gonna stay girls
Wanna be, wanna be movin' on
Gonna be, gonna be only one
Gotta go, gotta go, wow wow
Be ladies, but we
Stay girls
誓った one thing
夢をかなえるまで、
あきらめたりはしないよ
Stay girls だからあなたも、
その瞳のままで...
Be ladies, but we
Stay girls
心はhold on
夢みる気持ちを、
失わないでいるから
Stay girls いつまでも、
歩き出した日のように
We wanna stay girls
We're gonna stay girls
The lyrics of "Stay Girls" by Girls' Generation reflect on the growth and determination of the members as they navigate through life, striving to remain true to themselves and their dreams. The song begins with the question of how much the singer has changed since meeting someone, whether they have become closer to the person they aspired to be. It expresses their desire to be wonderful and mature, but ultimately, they want to stay true to their youthful and genuine selves.
The chorus emphasizes the importance of holding onto their dreams and never losing the mindset of dreaming and aspiring for more. They want to maintain the same enthusiasm and passion they had when they first started their journey, never losing sight of who they are. The phrase "Stay girls" represents their determination to remain youthful and authentic despite growing up and becoming more experienced.
The second verse highlights the impact of memories and the support they receive from others, particularly through the voice of a special someone. The lyrics suggest that even on difficult days or during trying times, their memories and the encouragement they receive give them the strength to carry on. They express gratitude for the everyday support they receive, emphasizing the importance of not facing challenges alone.
The bridge of the song emphasizes the members' pure and innocent hearts, their unwavering determination, and their refusal to let go of their dreams. They believe that no matter what the future holds, they can face it with the same energy and authenticity. The chorus is repeated once again, underscoring their commitment to stay true to themselves and their dreams.
Overall, "Stay Girls" conveys Girls' Generation's desire to remain genuine, passionate, and true to themselves as they continue their journey in life. They value their memories, the support from others, and the belief in their dreams while cherishing their youthful enthusiasm and maintaining their pure hearts. The song ultimately expresses their determination to stay true to who they are and never give up on their dreams.

Whatever happens they will always be the girls we met,the girls who used to dream,the girls who made great memories together and the girls who we saw the first time
Right now there already ladies,so it's time to let but we will not forget the 9 girls who dreamed together,who walked together in the same journey,and the ones who supported each other path....
The things they used to imagine before are now reality,and one of the example are us sones letting go of SNSD
The things they did before are now memories from the time they were still girls.....
I'm ready to let go of SNSD

This song makes me emotional

This song is so much more relatable to me now at 26 than when when I first heard it at 18. Feel like a lot of us girls/women can relate that as we get older, we feel like we have to “grow up” as people say. But what does “grow up” really mean? To give up our youthful personalities? To give up the things we love and become brick walls? Just last year, I was scared of aging because I felt like I would lose myself eventually. But so far, nothing has changed much, except I’m becoming more aware of myself and becoming more wiser, while still enjoying the things that made me who I am. We can be mature ladies while still being girls. Till the day we die. Nothing wrong with playing with Barbies and then leaving the house for a corporate job interview all in the same day. That’s what keeps our stars shining bright 🌟
I saw a quote once. I’m not sure who wrote it nor do I remember the exact quote. But it went something like: “Grown ups are just kids who are trying to prove to everyone else that they’re a grown up.”
Take care everyone. Let’s all stay girls/kids forever 💕
