Don't forget
Seulgi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
작고 아름다울 줄 알았던
이렇게 빠르게 다가오는 걸
그때의 내가 알고 있었다면
지금 내 모습은 변했을까
지나가는 사람 모두
더 이상의 의미 없다고
생각하는 시간 조차
물웅덩이 빠져 더럽혀진
나만 있어
잊지 마 잊지 마 날
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
함께였던 시간보다
홀로 지샌 밤들 만큼
외로움에 익숙해지고
생각하는 시간마저
아무렇지 않게 버려진 채
남아있어
잊지 마 잊지 마 날
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
잊지 마 잊지 마 날
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
The lyrics of Seulgi's song "Don't forget" are about revisiting one's past and longing for the happy moments that have been left behind. The first verse speaks of how things seem small and beautiful when viewed through small spaces or gaps, but as time passes, they seem to be coming towards us at a faster pace, making us wonder if our current self is any different from the past. The next verse talks about how everyone we meet in passing has moved on and there may be no point in asking about the past, even the time spent in thought seems futile as it only adds to the loneliness that one feels.
The chorus of the song asks the listener not to forget their past, and how they spent their childhood days trapped in them. They long for those happy times and try to remember them despite the fact that these memories are fading away. The second verse speaks about how they have grown accustomed to loneliness and even the time spent in thought seems to be thrown away, never to be returned.
Overall, the song "Don't forget" evokes a feeling of nostalgia and longing for the happy moments gone by, while also questioning the usefulness of dwelling on the past.

작은 틈 사이로 보여지던
The things that used to be visible through small gaps
작고 아름다울 줄 알았던
That I thought were small and beautiful
이렇게 빠르게 다가오는 걸
That are now rapidly approaching
그때의 내가 알고 있었다면
If only I had known back then
지금 내 모습은 변했을까
Would my current self be different now?
지나가는 사람 모두
All the people who pass by
지난 시간 되묻자면
If asked about the past
더 이상의 의미 없다고
They might say it has no more meaning
생각하는 시간 조차
Even the time spent thinking
물웅덩이 빠져 더럽혀진
Has become like a dirty puddle
나만 있어
And I am left alone
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
The time when I was trapped in my childhood
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
I remember my past self every day
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
Even if I forget a little bit each day
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
My heart flows as I remember my past self every day
함께였던 시간보다
More than the time we spent together
홀로 지샌 밤들 만큼
As much as the nights I spent alone
외로움에 익숙해지고
I've become accustomed to loneliness
생각하는 시간마저
Even the time spent thinking
아무렇지 않게 버려진 채
Is discarded easily
남아있어
But it remains
잊지 마 잊지 마 날
Don't forget, don't forget me
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
The time when I was trapped in my childhood
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
I remember my past self every day
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
Even if I forget a little bit each day
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
My heart flows as I remember my past self every day
잊지 마 잊지 마 날
Don't forget, don't forget me
어린 시절 속 갇혀있었던
The time when I was trapped in my childhood
매일 난 나의 날 떠올려
I remember my past self every day
잊혀가 잊혀가도 조금 잊으면
Even if I forget a little bit each day
흘러가는 맘 매일 난 나의 날 떠올려 난
My heart flows as I remember my past self every day
