기다려요 한마디에
gidaryeoyo hanmadie
At the single word, "Wait"

긴긴 세월 살아온 나
gingin sewol saraon na
I, who have lived through long, long years

갈 길 잃어 서성이는
galgirireo seoseongineun
Wandering, having lost my way

내 이름은 구름이여
nae ireumeun gureumiyeo
My name is a cloud

그리워도 그대 위해
geuriwodo geudae wihae
Even if I miss you, for your sake

이슬처럼 잊으리라
iseulcheoreom ijeurira
I will forget you like the dew

보고파도 그대 위해
bogopado geudae wihae
Even if I long to see you, for your sake

옛일 처럼 잊으리라
yennil cheoreom ijeurira
I will forget it like a thing of the past

밤새워 기도하던
bamsaewo gidohadeon
Praying all night long

이 마음 달래봐도
i maeum dallaebwado
Even if I try to soothe this heart

갈 길 잃어 서성이는
galgirireo seoseongineun
Wandering, having lost my way

내 이름은 구름이여
nae ireumeun gureumiyeo
My name is a cloud

그리워도 그대위해
geuriwodo geudaewihae
Even if I miss you, for your sake

이슬처럼 잊으리라
iseulcheoreom ijeurira
I will forget you like the dew

보고파도 그대위해
bogopado geudaewihae
Even if I long to see you, for your sake

옛일처럼 잊으리라
yennilcheoreom ijeurira
I will forget it like a thing of the past

밤새워 기도하던
bamsaewo gidohadeon
Praying all night long

이 마음 달래봐도
i maeum dallaebwado
Even if I try to soothe this heart

갈 길 잃어 서성이는
galgirireo seoseongineun
Wandering, having lost my way

내 이름은 구름이여
nae ireumeun gureumiyeo
My name is a cloud

스쳐가는 바람 끝에
seuchyeoganeun baram kkeute
At the edge of the passing wind

그대 숨결 남아 있어
geudae sumgyeol nama isseo
Your breath remains

지우려 해 돌아서도
jiuryeo hae doraseodo
Even when I turn away trying to erase it

다시 그대 길을 걷네
dasi geudae gireul geonne
I walk your path again

멀어져도 내 안에는
meoreojyeodo nae aneneun
Even if we drift apart, inside me

여전히 그대 하나
yeojeonhi geudae hana
There is still only you

부르지 못한 그 이름
bureuji mothan geu ireum
That name I couldn't call out

가슴 깊이 남겨두고
gaseum gipi namgyeodugo
Leaving it deep in my heart

내 이름은 구름이여
nae ireumeun gureumiyeo
My name is a cloud

내 이름은 구름이여
nae ireumeun gureumiyeo
My name is a cloud
