오늘밤은 어둠이 무서워요 [Onul Pamun Odumi Musowo] [English translation]

Tonight, I’m afraid of being alone.

Please open the window and listen to the sound of the wind

People don’t take care of me

Please don’t leave me until I fall asleep.

Catch that wriggling bug for me

Make sure to crush the tissue you use and throw it outside the window, please

Today I’m just not strong at all

I just want to listen to the lullabies you sing for me

While holding me in your arms just for tonight

Tonight, I’m afraid of sleeping alone

It seems like there’s something there in the small room

Just wait a minute. I’m not normally like this

Please don’t leave the house until I’ve fallen asleep

I’m not sure, please lock the front gate

When you come back turn off the light and leave the door halfway open

Today I’m just not strong at all

Just for tonight, I want you to hold me

If for whatever reason, you suspect evil thoughts or a blackened heart in order to have you

It’s fine to tie me to that chair.

Look out the window, it’s raining

It’d be a bad idea to leave the house now

The buses have stopped and taxis don’t often come here

Tonight, I’m afraid of being alone

Keep stroking my hair until I fall asleep

Please believe me. I’m not normally like this

I just want to listen to the lullabies you sing for me

While holding me in your arms just for tonight

Please, only for tonight, don’t go.
