LE SSERAFIM “Born Fire” Lyrics

Hangul

하나의 불이 태어났다
The flame engulfed the silence splitting apart the dark
火は届かない太陽の幻を追いかけて大きくなった。

갈라진 틈으로 쏟아지는 굉음
눈을 태우는 찰나의 섬광
美しいゆらめきに誘われ、
より大きく燃え上がることだけが
存在の理由だと信じていた。
In the end, it devoured itself and scattered to ashes – a paradoxical existence
A vanishing point of blue light in finite time

하나의 불은 재가 되었다
모든 것이 물러난 고요
순간과 영원이 맞물리는 불변의 시공

The name that resounds from the lowest depths, the sign of existence etched onto the soul
火は灰の中から火種として再び目を覚ます。

The ember with its resilient heat
Melts the coarse grains to translucence
闇の片隅で道に迷った瞳を照らした。
겨울 숲을 헤매던 아이의 얼어붙은 발을 감쌌다
아이는 작은 숨을 내뱉었다
그리하여 숨이 불을 밝히었다
火種は熱い息によって再び燃え上がる。
At last, the flame is born

Romanized

Hanaui buri taeeonatda
The flame engulfed the silence splitting apart the dark
火は届かない太陽の幻を追いかけて大きくなった。

Gallajin teumeuro ssodajineun goengeum
Nuneul taeuneun challaui seomgwang
美しいゆらめきに誘われ、
より大きく燃え上がることだけが
存在の理由だと信じていた。
In the end, it devoured itself and scattered to ashes – a paradoxical existence
A vanishing point of blue light in finite time

Hanaui bureun jaega doeeotda
Modeun geosi mulleonan goyo
Sungangwa yeongwoni manmullineun bulbyeonui sigong

The name that resounds from the lowest depths, the sign of existence etched onto the soul
火は灰の中から火種として再び目を覚ます。

The ember with its resilient heat
Melts the coarse grains to translucence
闇の片隅で道に迷った瞳を照らした。
Gyeoul supeul hemaedeon aiui eoreobuteun bareul gamssatda
Aineun jageun sumeul naebaeteotda
Geurihayeo sumi bureul balkieotda
火種は熱い息によって再び燃え上がる。
At last, the flame is born

Translation

A single flame was born.
The flame engulfed the silence, splitting apart the dark.
Chasing the illusion of an unreachable sun, the fire grew larger.

A deafening roar pours through the cracks.
A fleeting flash that burns the eyes.
Lured by its beautiful flickering,
Believing that growing even bigger
Was the only reason for its existence.
In the end, it devoured itself and scattered to ashes.

A paradoxical existence.
A vanishing point of blue light in finite time.

A single flame turned to ash.
A silence where everything has retreated.
An immutable space-time where moments and eternity intertwine.
The name that resounds from the lowest depths.
The sign of existence etched onto the soul.
From within the ashes, the fire awakens again as an ember.


The ember, with its resilient heat, melts the coarse grains to translucence.
In the corner of the darkness, it illuminated lost eyes
It wrapped around the frozen feet of a child wandering the winter forest.
The child let out a small breath.
And so, the breath ignited the flame.
The ember is rekindled by the warmth of a breath.
At last, the flame is born.
