[When Autumn Comes Lyrics & English Translation]
가을이 오면 눈부신 아침 햇살에
Gaeuri omyeon nunbusin achim haetsare
When autumn comes, in the dazzling morning sunlight
비친 그대의 미소가 아름다워요
Bichin geudaeui misoga areumdawoyo
Your smile reflected in it is beautiful
눈을 감으면 싱그런 바람 가득한
Nuneul gameumyeon singgeureon baram gadeukhan
When I close my eyes, full of the fresh wind
그대의 맑은 숨결이 향기로와요
Geudaeui malgeun sumgyeori hyanggirowayo
Your clear breath is fragrant
길을 걸으면 불러보던 그 옛 노래는
Gireul georeumyeon bulleobodeon geu yet noraeneun
That old song I used to sing while walking down the street
아직도 내 마음을 설레게 하네
Ajikdo nae maeumeul seollege hane
Still makes my heart flutter
하늘을 보면 님의 부드런 고운 미소
Haneureul bomyeon nimui budeureon goun miso
When I look at the sky, your soft, beautiful smile
가득한 저 하늘에 가을이 오면
Gadeukhan jeo haneure gaeuri omyeon
Fills that sky when autumn comes
가을이 오면 호숫가 물결 잔잔한
Gaeuri omyeon hosutga mulgyeol janjanha
When autumn comes, the calm waves of the lake
그대의 슬픈 미소가 아름다워요

Your sad smile is beautiful
눈을 감으면 지나온 날의 그리운
