The First Snow (첫 눈) Lyrics English Translation by EXO
On an afternoon when the first snow falls like this,
I would be happy if I could call you.
It’s already been a year, but I’m still lingering,
Full of regrets, murmuring to myself, “Lonely.”
(Turning back the clock,)
If I could go back a year,
(Turning back our hearts,)
Would we be different now?
Yeah, it sounds foolish, but still, if
I meet you, tears well up,
Foolishly, I can’t say anything.
Tell me, Merry Merry Christmas,
Are you doing well?
When the snow falls, will the bruised heart
Be covered entirely in white?
I’m sorry, I couldn’t treat you well,
Filled with regrets,
That Christmas.
The streets are filled with lights,
I walked alone, everyone seems happy.
I foolishly thought you would always be there
Like the air, stupidly let you go.
I’m so sorry.
(Too common a story,)
It’s too precious after it passes.
(Always passing by,)
Why didn’t I know back then?
Things will be different now, I want to tell you.
I meet you, tears well up,
Foolishly, I can’t say anything.
Tell me, Merry Merry Christmas,
Are you doing well?
When the snow falls, will the bruised heart
Be covered entirely in white?
Whether it’s tears or because of the snow,
Gradually, that Christmas
You seemed farther and farther away.
It’s truly amazing, just thinking about you
Makes tears flow, falling, falling.
Tears are falling, falling, falling,
I want to go back to you.
I can do anything,
Even if everything in life disappears until now, girl.
I meet you, tears well up,
Foolishly, I can’t say anything.
Tell me, Merry Merry Christmas,
Are you doing well, baby girl? Oh yeah.
When the snow falls, will the bruised heart
Be covered entirely in white?
I’m sorry, I couldn’t treat you well,
Filled with regrets.
I meet you, tears well up,
(Tears well up,)
(Foolishly, I) can’t say anything.
(I’m someone who can’t say anything,)
Merry Merry Christmas, are you doing well?
When the snow falls, will the bruised heart
Be covered entirely in white?
Whether it’s tears or because of the snow,
Gradually, that Christmas.
