(어찌 그렇게 사셨나요, 아버지)
(eojji geureoke sasyeotnayo, abeoji)
(How did you live like that, father)
(이제서야 난 깨달아요)
(ijeseoya nan kkaedarayo)
(Now I finally realize)
Yo 너무 앞만 보며 살아오셨네
Yo neomu apman bomyeo saraosyeotne
Yo, you've been living your life looking too far ahead
어느새 자식들 머리커서 말도 안듣네
eoneusae jasikdeul meorikeoseo maldo andeunne
Before I knew it, my children had grown so big that they couldn’t even listen to me
한평생 제 자식 밥 그릇에 청춘 걸고
hanpyeongsaeng je jasik bap geureuse cheongchun geolgo
For the rest of my life, I have invested my youth in my children’s food bowls
새끼들 사진보며 한푼이라도 더 벌고
saekkideul sajinbomyeo hanpunirado deo beolgo
Earn an extra penny by looking at pictures of your kids
눈물 먹고 목숨 걸고
nunmul meokgo moksum geolgo
Drinking tears and risking my life
힘들어도 털고 일어나
himdeureodo teolgo ireona
Even if it's hard, shake it off and get up
이러다 쓰러지면 어쩌나
ireoda sseureojimyeon eojjeona
What if I fall down like this?
아빠는 슈퍼맨이야, 얘들아, 걱정마
appaneun syupeomaeniya, yaedeura, geokjeongma
Daddy's Superman, kids, don't worry
위에서 짓눌러도 티낼 수도 없고
wieseo jinnulreodo tinael sudo eopgo
Even if you press down on me, I can't show it
아래에서 치고 올라와도 피할 수 없네
araeeseo chigo olrawado pihal su eopne
Even if it comes at you from below, you can't avoid it
무섭네, 세상 도망가고 싶네
museomne, sesang domanggago sipne
It's scary, I want to run away from the world
젠장, 그래도 참고 있네 맨날
jenjang, geuraedo chamgo itne maennal
Damn, I still hold back every day
아무것도 모른 채 내 품에서 뒹굴거리는
amugeotdo moreun chae nae pumeseo dwinggulgeorineun
Rolling around in my arms without knowing anything
새끼들의 장난 때문에 나는 산다
saekkideurui jangnan ttaemune naneun sanda
I live because of their pranks
힘들어도 간다
himdeureodo ganda
Go even if it's hard
여보, 얘들아 (얘들아), 아빠 출근한다
yeobo, yaedeura (yaedeura), appa chulgeunhanda
Honey, kids (kids), daddy's going to work
아버지, 이제야 깨달아요
abeoji, ijeya kkaedarayo
Father, I finally understand
어찌 그렇게 사셨나요
eojji geureoke sasyeotnayo
How did you live like that?
더 이상 쓸쓸해 하지 마요
deo isang sseulsseulhae haji mayo
Don't feel lonely anymore
이제 나와 같이 가요
ije nawa gati gayo
Come with me now
어느새 학생이 된 아이들에게
eoneusae haksaengi doen aideurege
To children who have already become students
아빠는 바라는 거 딱 하나
appaneun baraneun geo ttak hana
There's only one thing my dad wants
정직하고 건강한 착한 아이, 바른 아이
jeongjikago geonganghan chakan ai, bareun ai
Honest, healthy, good child, upright child
다른 아빠보단 잘 할테니
dareun appabodan jal halteni
I'll do better than other dads
학교 외에 학원 과외
hakgyo oee hagwon gwaoe
Private tutoring outside of school
다른 아빠들과의 경쟁에서 이기고자
dareun appadeulgwaui gyeongjaengeseo igigoja
To win the competition with other dads
무엇이든지 다 해줘야 해
mueosideunji da haejwoya hae
You have to do everything
고로 많이 벌어야 해
goro manhi beoreoya hae
So you have to earn a lot
너네 아빠한테 잘해
neone appahante jalhae
Be nice to your dad
아이들은 친구들을 사귀고
aideureun chingudeureul sagwigo
children make friends
많은 얘기 나누고
manheun yaegi nanugo
We talked a lot
보고 듣고 더 많은 것을 해주는 남의 아빠와 비교
bogo deutgo deo manheun geoseul haejuneun namui appawa bigyo
Compare yourself to someone else's dad who watches, listens, and does more for you
더 좋은 것을 사주는 남의 아빠와 나를 비교
deo joheun geoseul sajuneun namui appawa nareul bigyo
Comparing myself to other people's dads who buy me better things
갈수록 싸가지 없어지는 아이들과
galsurok ssagaji eopseojineun aideulgwa
Children who are becoming more and more rude
바가지만 긁는 안사람의 등살에 외로워도 간다
bagajiman geulneun ansaramui deungsare oerowodo ganda
I go even if I feel lonely because of the backache of people who only scratch things
여보, 얘들아, 아빠 출근한다
yeobo, yaedeura, appa chulgeunhanda
Honey, kids, dad is going to work
아버지, 이제야 깨달아요
abeoji, ijeya kkaedarayo
Father, I finally understand
어찌 그렇게 사셨나요

Don't feel lonely anymore
이제 나와 같이 가요
ije nawa gati gayo
Come with me now
여보, 어느새 세월이 많이 흘렀소

Honey, so much time has passed before I knew it
첫째는 사회로

First is society
둘째 놈은 대학으로
duljjae nomeun daehageuro
The second guy goes to college
이젠 온가족이 함께 하고 싶지만
ijen ongajogi hamkke hago sipjiman
Now I want my whole family to be together
아버지기 때문에 얘기하기 어렵구만
abeojigi ttaemune yaegihagi eoryeopguman
It's hard to talk about because he's my father
세월의 무상함에 눈물이 고이고
seworui musanghame nunmuri goigo
Tears well up at the transience of time
아이들은 바뻐보이고 아이고
aideureun bappeoboigo aigo
The kids look busy
산책이나 가야겠소, 여보, 함께 가주시오

I need to go for a walk, honey, please come with me
아버지, 이제야 깨달아요
