K-pop Lyrics

Across the border
they turn water into wine
Some say it's the devil's blood
They're squeezing from the vine

jeojjok gyeonggye neomeoeseon saramdeuri
mureul sullo bakkuji
eotteon ineun geugeol garikyeo
podoeseo jjanaen angmaui pirago bulleo

Some say it's a saviour
in these hard and desperate times
You see it helps me to forget
that we're just born to die

eotteon ineun jigeumgateun eoryeopgo
jeolbakhan sigien gusejuwa gatdago haji
geugeon uriga jukgi wihae taeeonatdaneun geol
naega itdorok dowa juneun geoya

I came here like so many did
to find the better life
to find my piece of easy street
to finally be alive

nado dareun maneun saramdeulcheoreom
deo naeun insaengeul chajeuryeo
swipge saneun salmeul chajeuryeo
geurigo majimageuro, salgi wihae watji

I knew nothing good comes easy
All good things take some time
I made my bed I'll lie in it to die in
It's the crime

swipge eodeul su inneun geon amu geotdo eopgo
joeun geoseul eodeuryeomyeon sigani geollineun geol ara
naega nuwo jugeul jamjarireul maryeonhaesseo
geugeon joeagiya

You can't help but prosper
where the streets are paved with gold
They say the oil wells ran deeper here
than anybody's known

geumeuro pojangdoen georieseon
beonchanghal subakke eopgetji
igosui yujeong(油井)eun allyeojin geu eoneu
gopboda mani maejang doeeoitdago haji

Now I packed up on my wife and kid
And left the both back at home
See there's nothing in this pay dirt
The ghosts are all I know

ije nan anaewa aireul jibe namgyeo dun chae
jimeul ssaseo tteonal chaebireul haesseo
bwa, i sageum chaechwijangen amu geotdo eopseo
naega algo itdeon geon modu heosangil ppuniya

Now the oil's gone
And the money's gone
All the jobs are gone
Still we're hanging on
down in dry county

ijen seogyudo sarajigo
dondo sarajigo
jikjangdo modu sarajyeosseo
hajiman urin ajikdo jeo arae
memalla beorin maeure jipchakhago itji

They're swimming in the sand
praying for some holy water
to wash these sins from off our hands

saramdeureun morae sogeul hemaemyeo
uri sone mudeun joereul ssiseo naegi wihan
seongsu(聖水)reul chatgireul gidohago isseo

In dry county the promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one's getting out of here alive
Not this time

memareun i maeureseo yaksogeun sarajigo
amudo sori jireuji anko
amudo sara nagal su eopseo
jebal ibeommaneun...

In the blessed name of Jesus
I heard a preacher say
That we are all God's children
And He'd be back, back someday

chukbogeul jusineun hananimui ireumeuro
moksanimi gidohaneun geol deureosseo
urin hananimui jasikdeurigo
hananimeun eonjengga doraosil georago mariya

I hoped that he knew something
As he drank that cup of wine
I didn't have too good feeling
As I head out to the night

geuga geu suljaneul deurikyeosseul ttae
mueongga algo itgireul somanghaesseo
bameuro hyanghaneun naneun
neukkimi byeollo joji ana

I cursed the sky to open
I begged the clouds for rain
I prayed to God for water
for this burning in my veins

nan haneuri yeollineun geol jeojuhaetgo
gureumeul hyanghae bireul galmanghaetgo
bultaneun deuthan nae pitjureul wihae
hananimkke mureul dalla gidohaesseo

It was like my soul's on fire
And I had to watch the flames
All my dreams went up in ashes
And my future blew away

nae yeonghoni bulta oreuneun geot gatatgo
nan geu bulgireul barabwaya haetji
nae modeun kkumdeureun jaegadoeeo sarajyeotgo
naui miraedo naraga beoryeosseo

Now the oil's gone
And the money's gone
All the jobs are gone
Still they're hanging on
down in dry county

ijen seogyudo sarajigo
dondo sarajigo
jikjangdo modu sarajyeosseo
hajiman urin ajikdo jeo arae
memalla beorin maeure jipchakhago itji

They're swimming in the sand
praying for some holy water
to wash these sins from off our hands

saramdeureun morae sogeul hemaemyeo
uri sone mudeun joereul ssiseo naegi wihan
seongsu(聖水)reul chatgireul gidohago isseo

In dry county the promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one's getting out of here alive

memareun i maeureseo yaksogeun sarajigo
amudo sori jireuji anko
amudo sara nagal su eopseo

Men spend their whole lives
waiting praying for their big reward
But it seems sometimes the payoff
leaves you feeling like a dirty whore

ingganeun keodaran bosangi itgireul
gidohago gidarimyeo pyeongsaengeul bonaeji
hajiman ttaeroneun geu bosangeun dangsineul
chujaphan maechumbuga doen geotcheoreom neukkige hae

If I could choose the way I'll die
Make it by the gun or knife
Cause the other way
There's too much

Across the border
they turn water into wine
Some say it's the devil's blood
They're squeezing from the vine

저쪽 경계 너머에선 사람들이
물을 술로 바꾸지
어떤 이는 그걸 가리켜
포도에서 짜낸 악마의 피라고 불러

Some say it's a saviour
in these hard and desperate times
You see it helps me to forget
that we're just born to die

어떤 이는 지금같은 어렵고
절박한 시기엔 구세주와 같다고 하지
그건 우리가 죽기 위해 태어났다는 걸
내가 잊도록 도와 주는 거야

I came here like so many did
to find the better life
to find my piece of easy street
to finally be alive

나도 다른 많은 사람들처럼
더 나은 인생을 찾으려
쉽게 사는 삶을 찾으려
그리고 마지막으로, 살기 위해 왔지

I knew nothing good comes easy
All good things take some time
I made my bed I'll lie in it to die in
It's the crime

쉽게 얻을 수 있는 건 아무 것도 없고
좋은 것을 얻으려면 시간이 걸리는 걸 알아
내가 누워 죽을 잠자리를 마련했어
그건 죄악이야

You can't help but prosper
where the streets are paved with gold
They say the oil wells ran deeper here
than anybody's known

금으로 포장된 거리에선
번창할 수밖에 없겠지
이곳의 유정(油井)은 알려진 그 어느
곳보다 많이 매장 되어있다고 하지

Now I packed up on my wife and kid
And left the both back at home
See there's nothing in this pay dirt
The ghosts are all I know

이제 난 아내와 아이를 집에 남겨 둔 채
짐을 싸서 떠날 채비를 했어
봐, 이 사금 채취장엔 아무 것도 없어
내가 알고 있던 건 모두 허상일 뿐이야

Now the oil's gone
And the money's gone
All the jobs are gone
Still we're hanging on
down in dry county

이젠 석유도 사라지고
돈도 사라지고
직장도 모두 사라졌어
하지만 우린 아직도 저 아래
메말라 버린 마을에 집착하고 있지

They're swimming in the sand
praying for some holy water
to wash these sins from off our hands

사람들은 모래 속을 헤매며
우리 손에 묻은 죄를 씻어 내기 위한
성수(聖水)를 찾기를 기도하고 있어

In dry county the promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one's getting out of here alive
Not this time

메마른 이 마을에서 약속은 사라지고
아무도 소리 지르지 않고
아무도 살아 나갈 수 없어
제발 이번만은...

In the blessed name of Jesus
I heard a preacher say
That we are all God's children
And He'd be back, back someday

축복을 주시는 하나님의 이름으로
목사님이 기도하는 걸 들었어
우린 하나님의 자식들이고
하나님은 언젠가 돌아오실 거라고 말이야

I hoped that he knew something
As he drank that cup of wine
I didn't have too good feeling
As I head out to the night

그가 그 술잔을 들이켰을 때
무언가 알고 있기를 소망했어
밤으로 향하는 나는
느낌이 별로 좋지 않아

I cursed the sky to open
I begged the clouds for rain
I prayed to God for water
for this burning in my veins

난 하늘이 열리는 걸 저주했고
구름을 향해 비를 갈망했고
불타는 듯한 내 핏줄을 위해
하나님께 물을 달라 기도했어

It was like my soul's on fire
And I had to watch the flames
All my dreams went up in ashes
And my future blew away

내 영혼이 불타 오르는 것 같았고
난 그 불길을 바라봐야 했지
내 모든 꿈들은 재가되어 사라졌고
나의 미래도 날아가 버렸어

Now the oil's gone
And the money's gone
All the jobs are gone
Still they're hanging on
down in dry county

이젠 석유도 사라지고
돈도 사라지고
직장도 모두 사라졌어
하지만 우린 아직도 저 아래
메말라 버린 마을에 집착하고 있지

They're swimming in the sand
praying for some holy water
to wash these sins from off our hands

사람들은 모래 속을 헤매며
우리 손에 묻은 죄를 씻어 내기 위한
성수(聖水)를 찾기를 기도하고 있어

In dry county the promise has run dry
Where nobody cries
And no one's getting out of here alive

메마른 이 마을에서 약속은 사라지고
아무도 소리 지르지 않고
아무도 살아 나갈 수 없어

간주

Men spend their whole lives
waiting praying for their big reward
But it seems sometimes the payoff
leaves you feeling like a dirty whore

인간은 커다란 보상이 있기를
기도하고 기다리며 평생을 보내지
하지만 때로는 그 보상은 당신을
추잡한 매춘부가 된 것처럼 느끼게 해

If I could choose the way I'll die
Make it by the gun or knife
Cause the other way
There's too much
