Crucial Star – Grandma

|

Intro)
Today too, grandma
has the TV on all day
and is waiting for her [x_extra info=”popover” title=”Note” info_trigger=”hover” info_place=”top” info_content=”Both here in the intro and in the outro he attaches the word ‘놈’ (nom) to ‘grandson’ which gives it a self-deprecating nuance”]grandson[/x_extra]
She’s waiting for this grandson


할머니는 오늘도
온종일 TV를 켜놓고
이 손자놈을 기다려
이 손자놈을 기다려

Today too, my grandma
thinks I’ll appear [on TV].
and is waiting for her grandson
For this grandson

울 할머니는 오늘도
내가 나오는 줄 알고
이 손자놈을 기다려
이 손자놈을

Hook)
Grandma, you surely had things you wanted to do, and dreams
Grandma, you surely put all that behind you and gave up on it
You said you had to walk a difficult path when my father was a newborn baby
In front of you, I cannot blame my family background or say that I’ve got it hard


분명히 할머니도 하고 싶은 일과 꿈들이 있었겠죠
분명히 할머닌 그 모든 걸 뒤로 한 채로 포기했겠죠
울 아버진 갓난 애기 때 피난길에 올랐었다고 했죠
난 당신 앞에서 환경을 탓하거나 힘들다곤 말 못해요

Chorus x2)
My grandma had a dream, grandma had a dream ([x_extra info=”popover” title=”Reference” info_trigger=”hover” info_place=”top” info_content=”M. L. King, Jr. – I Have A Dream”]I have a dream[/x_extra])
My grandma had a dream, grandma had a dream (but I have a dream)
My grandma had a dream, grandma had a dream (I have a dream)
My grandma had a dream, grandma had a dream (dream)

Verse 1)
As usual,
grandma sits opposite me at the table
As usual,
she wanted to bone the fish for me


여느 때와 다를 것 없이
식탁에 마주앉은 할머니
여느 때와 다를 것 없이
생선을 발라주려 하셨지

As usual,
without saying a word, without a word
She put the bowls with the side dishes I like
closer to me

여느 때와 다를 것 없이
아무런 말 없이 말 없이
내가 좋아하는 반찬 그릇을
더 가까운 곳에 놓아줬지

Unlike usual,
I asked grandma many questions
What she wanted to do when she was young
What kind of person grandpa was

여느 때와 다르게
난 할머니한테 많은 걸 물어봤어
어렸을 때 할머닌 무얼 하고 싶었는지
할아버진 어떤 사람이였는 지

Whether she’s going to the senior citizen’s center these days
Whether she isn’t going to church like other elderly ladies
Living on her own must be lonely,
how about raising a puppy? She said

요즘에 노인정엔 가시는지
다른 할머니들처럼 교횐 안 가시는 지
혼자 사시는 게 외로우실텐데
강아지 한 마리 키우면 어떨지 she said

Pre-Chorus)
What’s important is you, I’m fine
Eat more, I’m fine
Yesterday again, I’ve had the TV on all day
When did my grandson grow this big?


중요한 건 너야 할머니는 괜찮단다
더 많이 먹어라 할머니는 괜찮단다
어제도 하루종일 TV를 켜놨단다
언제 이렇게 컸을까 우리 손자

Chorus x8)
Na na na na na na na na na na na

Hook)

Outro)
I couldn’t tell her (Today too, grandma)
that today too, on TV (has the TV on all day)
I won’t appear (and is waiting for her grandson)
I won’t appear (She’s waiting for this grandson)


난 말하지 못했네 (할머니는 오늘도)
오늘도 TV에 (온종일 TV를 켜놓고)
난 나오지 않는다고 (이 손자놈을 기다려)
난 나오지 않는다고 (이 손자놈을 기다려)

I wanted to tell her (Today too, my grandma)
that today too, on TV (thinks I’ll appear)
I won’t appear, but that (and is waiting for her grandson)
I have a glorious dream (For this grandson)

난 말하고 싶었네 (울 할머니는 오늘도)
오늘도 TV에 (내가 나오는 줄 알고)
나오지 않는다해도 (이 손자놈을 기다려)
빛나는 꿈이 있다고 (이 손자놈을)
