Butterfly (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro]
Your name that I miss
My spring day
For you

[Verse 1]
When I close my eyes, your warmth becomes clear
Our time that seems like it could be caught if I reach out

[Pre-Chorus]
The scent that spread warmly like a dream
All scattered in the cold wind
Forgotten without a trace

[Chorus]
I call your name
My brilliant spring
I just look at your back that has left
For you, ooh
For you, ooh
I call your name

[Verse 2]
That smile toward me
The days that shone brightly, mm
The pain and suffering
And the tears have become memories now

[Pre-Chorus]
How much more must pass before it gets better? It was so beautiful, oh
Saying goodbye to past memories

[Chorus]
I call your name
My brilliant spring
I just silently look at your back
For you, ooh
For you, ooh
I call your name

[Post-Chorus]
I dream of another spring day
I search for you every night and wander in my dreams
To hold you in my arms again

[Outro]
I call your name (my brilliant)
My spring day (Mm, my spring day)
For you

Butterfly Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro sets a melancholic tone as TEN sings “그리운 너의 이름” (“I miss your name”), establishing a sense of longing for someone who is no longer present. The mention of “나의 봄날” (“my spring day”) ties the theme of the song to a time of warmth, love, and growth, symbolizing the past relationship that the narrator cherishes.

[Verse 1]
In this verse, TEN reflects on the clarity of memories when closing his eyes, “너의 따스함” (“your warmth”) being a comforting presence in his mind. The imagery of reaching out and almost touching the time they shared hints at the closeness they once had, and the nostalgic longing for that connection. This verse sets the stage for the deep emotional yearning that will continue throughout the song.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus introduces a sense of loss with the line “꿈처럼 포근히 퍼지던 향기도” (“the scent that spread warmly like a dream”), evoking memories of love that are now scattered by the cold wind, symbolizing how fleeting and fragile the connection was. The imagery of things disappearing without a trace suggests the inevitable passage of time and how memories of love can fade, even though they were once so vivid.

[Chorus]
In the chorus, TEN repeatedly calls the name of the lost love, “이름을 불러본다” (“I call your name”), reflecting the deep sense of loss and the desire for the past to return. The narrator reminisces about the bright and beautiful days of love, with “찬란했던 나의 봄” (“the brilliant spring of mine”) symbolizing the height of the relationship. However, they are left only with the image of the other person walking away, emphasizing the bittersweet nature of memory.

[Verse 2]
The second verse looks back at the radiant smile and the bright days shared with the lost love. TEN acknowledges that even the pain, tears, and difficulties of the past have now turned into memories, showing acceptance of the past and a sense of emotional growth. The verse highlights how even the most painful experiences can eventually be transformed into precious recollections.

[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus is repeated, where TEN questions how much time it will take for the pain to subside, expressing a desire for peace and closure. The narrator bids farewell to the past, sending a message to the memories of the beautiful times that are now behind them. This section emphasizes the emotional struggle of moving forward while still holding onto the past.

[Chorus]
The chorus returns, reinforcing the act of calling out the name of the lost love, with the deep longing for the spring-like beauty that once existed. TEN wishes for the return of the warmth and brilliance that characterized their relationship, and again, is left with the image of the departing figure. The repetition of “For you” emphasizes the narrator’s devotion, even though the person is no longer present.

[Post-Chorus]
In the post-chorus, TEN dreams of a return to spring, a season associated with renewal and hope. The narrator expresses a wish for one more chance to reunite, with the imagery of searching for the lost love in dreams and longing to embrace them once again. The dream represents the hope that even if the reality seems distant, the possibility of reuniting remains in the narrator’s heart.

[Outro]
The outro echoes the yearning for the lost love, reinforcing the song’s central theme of longing and the desire for one more chance to feel the warmth of love again. The repetitive lines of calling the name and referencing “나의 봄날” (my spring day) leave the song with a sense of wistful hope, indicating that despite the passing of time, the narrator still holds on to the hope of a reunion.
