City Night Lyrics Meaning Babylon | EGO 90’S PART 3
The songwriter describes a city where ‘the birds must’ve fallen asleep from exhaustion,’ evoking stillness and solitude. The lines mention streets once filled with laughter, now empty, as the narrator hides tears on days haunted by the past. The imagery of laundry and reaching out to friends adds a touch of everyday life.
I dosiui jomyeonggwa dalgwa bameunThe city lights, the moon, and the night,
Mucheogina oerowoyothey feel so incredibly lonely.
Saedeuldo jichyeo jami deureonnabwayoEven the birds must’ve fallen asleep from exhaustion,
Geu georien amudo eomneyoand there’s nobody left on those streets.
Geonildeon georiThose streets where we used to wander,
Useumyeonseo tteodeuldeon sorithe sounds of our laughter and chatter,
Bukjeogideon saramdeuland the crowds of bustling people…
Geu soge neowa naYou and I were right there in the middle,
Goyohage tadeureoganeun urias we slowly and quietly burned out.
I dosiui jomyeonggwa dalgwa bameunThe city lights, the moon, and the night,
Mucheogina oerowoyothey feel so incredibly lonely.
Saedeuldo jichyeo jami deureonnabwayoEven the birds must’ve fallen asleep from exhaustion,
Geu georien amudo eomneyoand there’s nobody left on those streets.
Eotteon nareneun gyesok geotdagaSome days I just keep on walking,
Jami anoneun naren mellodireul mandeureoand when I can’t sleep, I compose a new melody.
Geudae saenggangnaneun nareneunOn the days when memories of you fill my mind,
Nado mollae nunmureul gamchugonhaetjyoI’ve found myself secretly hiding my tears.
Botongnareneun ppallaereul hagoOn ordinary days, I just do my laundry,
Joeun nareneun chingudeurege anbureul jeonhagoand on good days, I reach out to check on my friends.
Seulpeun nareneun joyonghi honjaBut on the sad days, I stay quiet and alone,
Namani siganeul bonaetjyospending that time only with myself.
Geonildeon georiThose streets where we used to wander,
Useumyeonseo tteodeuldeon sorithe sounds of our laughter and chatter,
Bukjeogideon saramdeuland the crowds of bustling people…
Geu soge neowa naYou and I were right there in the middle,
Goyohage tadeureoganeun urias we slowly and quietly burned out.
I dosiui jomyeonggwa dalgwa bameunThe city lights, the moon, and the night,
Mucheogina oerowoyothey feel so incredibly lonely.
Saedeuldo jichyeo jami deureonnabwayoEven the birds must’ve fallen asleep from exhaustion,
Geu georien amudo eomneyoand there’s nobody left on those streets.
