BTS’ MOST UNDERRATED SONG

A very short post on what I think could possibly be BTS’ most underrated song.

BTS is definitely no stranger to the world – a Korean boyband by Big Hit Entertainment that has amassed a global fanbase in just a span of 4 short years.

Their hits includes “Fire”, “I Need You”, “Blood, Sweat & Tears” and the most recent “Spring Day”.

What is impressive was that their debut had destabilized the ‘Big 3’ record labels and had emerged South Korea’s most recent and most prominent act to break the west.

So here you go, enjoy BTS’s “Butterfly”.

 

Korean lyrics

아무것도 생각하지 마
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?
You You
너무 아름다워 두려워
Untrue Untrue
You You You

곁에 머물러줄래
내게 약속해줄래
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까
겁나 겁나 겁나

시간을 멈출래
이 순간이 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
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
내게 약속해줄래
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까
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

곁에 머물러줄래
내게 약속해줄래
손 대면 날아갈까 부서질까
겁나 겁나 겁나

시간을 멈출래
이 순간이 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

아무것도 생각하지 마
넌 아무 말도 꺼내지도 마
그냥 내게 웃어줘

English lyrics

Don’t think of anything
Don’t say anything, not even a word
Just give me a smile

I still can’t believe it
All of this seems like a dream
Don’t try to disappear

Is it true Is it true
You You
You’re so beautiful, that I’m scared
Untrue Untrue
You You You

Will you stay by my side
Will you promise me
If I let go of your hand, you’ll fly away and break
I’m scared scared scared of that

Will you stop time
If this moment passes
As though it hadn’t happened
I’m scared scared scared I’ll lose you

Butterfly like a Butterfly
Just like a Butterfly bu butterfly
Butterfly like a butterfly
Just like a Butterfly bu butterfly

You’re just like a Butterfly
From afar, I steal glances; if we touch hands, will I lose you?
You shine in this pitch darkness that is the butterfly effect
Your light touches, I forget the reality at once

It’s like a wind that gently strokes me
It’s like a dust that gently drifts along
You’re there but for some reason, I can’t reach you, stop
You, who’s like a dream is a butterfly high to me

Untrue Untrue
You You You

Will you stay by my side
Will you promise me
If I let go of your hand, you’ll fly away and break
I’m scared scared scared of that

Will you stop time
If this moment passes
As though it hadn’t happened
I’m scared scared scared I’ll lose you

The small pieces guttered down darkly
From my heart, a barren noise
I don’t know if this is reality or a dream
My Kafka on the seaside
Don’t go to those woods over there
My heart is still shattering on you
(I just wanted to vaporize like this)
My love that is forever
It’s all FREE for you baby

Will you stay by my side
Will you promise me
If I let go of your hand, you’ll fly away and break
I’m scared scared scared of that

Will you stop time
If this moment passes
As though it hadn’t happened
I’m scared scared scared I’ll lose you

Butterfly like a Butterfly
Just like a Butterfly bu butterfly
Butterfly like a butterfly
Just like a Butterfly bu butterfly
