Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

알아요 그대, 마음 힘든 하루였죠
오늘은 이대로 내려놔도 돼요

걱정없이 푹 자고 나면
소란한 마음도 괜찮을거예요

Oh 굿밤 굿나잇
그대 편히 쉬어요

곤히 잠들때까지
노래 불러줄게요

So 굿밤 굿나잇
좋은 꿈을 꾸겠죠
아침이 올때까지
그대 곁을 지켜줄게요

밤하늘 달빛도 우리 집 오구도
그대의 단잠을 깨울 수 없어요

걱정없이 푹 자고나면
소란한 마음도 괜찮을거예요
지금 이 노래가 끝나갈 때 쯤에
우린 깊은 밤을 날아가요

Oh 굿밤 굿나잇
그대 편히 쉬어요
곤히 잠들때까지
노래 불러줄게요

So 굿밤 굿나잇
좋은 꿈을 꾸겠죠
아침이 올때까지
그대 곁을 지켜줄게요

Oh 굿밤 굿나잇
그대 편히 쉬어요
곤히 잠들때까지
노래 불러줄게요

So 굿밤 굿나잇
좋은 꿈을 꾸겠죠

아침이 올때까지
그대 곁을 지켜줄게요

The mention of the "dawn of redeeming grace" taps into the concept of the baby Jesus being a savior figure, with his birth marking the beginning of redemption for humankind.
