Wings
Little Mix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

인생을 절대 낭비하지 마
작고 이쁜 나비 날갤 펼쳐봐
그 누가 뭐라건 밤을 설치지 마
누가 뭐래도 shh
조용히 가라 해

두발 땅에 닿지 않아
아무 말도 안 들려
넌 계속 지껄이지만 oh, yeah
가, 저리로 걸어가
신경 쓰기엔 난 멋져 oh, yeah

아무 의미 없어, 들리지 않아
계속 외쳐, 날 믿어줘

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said "Spread your wings, my little butterfly"
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly (hey, hey)

확 달아오른 저 런웨이
언젠가 도착할 건데
준비 따윈 필요 없어 no, no
Talk 하늘을 가르며
전혀 상관 안 해 oh, yeah

아무 의미 없어, 들리지 않아
계속 외쳐 날 믿어줘

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said "Spread your wings, my little butterfly"
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

I don't need no one saying "Hey, hey, hey, hey"
I don't hear no one saying "Hey (hey), hey (hey), hey (hey), hey (hey)"
그냥 계속 걸어가
아무 말 말고 지나가 boy
그냥 계속 걸어가
아무 말 말고 지나가 boy

아무 의미 없어, 들리지 않아
계속 외쳐 날 믿어줘

Mama told me not to waste my life
She said "Spread your wings, my little butterfly"
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say it won't hurt me




Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Little Mix's song Wings are empowering and encouraging. The song is about not wasting life and not letting negative comments bring one down. The chorus emphasizes the importance of spreading one's wings and flying, regardless of what others may say. It seeks to inspire the listener to stay confident in their abilities and not let anyone hold them back.


The usage of the metaphorical language of wings and flying conveys the message of breaking free and striving for greatness. The line “And if they give you, shh, then they can walk on by” shows that Little Mix believes there is no need to pay attention to those who try to bring you down. The line “I'm not listening, they're just like water off my wings” reinforces this idea, meaning that negative comments are just like water, never permanently sticking to one’s wings.


Overall, the message of the song is simple yet powerful – to spread your wings and fly, to ignore the negativity and criticism of those around you, and to live fully and courageously.
