Kim Gun Mo – A Man’s Life (남자의 인생)

How much have I come as I threw away my life?
This path that I busily took as I only thought of my wife and children

How tired must my portraits of youth have been?
Already my hair turns white and my wrinkles increase

* I poured my youth in a shot of soju and drank
Living this life like a rat race made my youth disappear

** Again today, I sway as I run at the end of a tired day
In my heart is my family that only believes in me and waits for me
Though the strong title of ‘father’ weighs me down, I can’t make it noticeable
I just bury everything in my heart and again today, I pour my life in a drink

How far have I come in my remaining life?
Without a moment to look back and think, I just looked forward and ran

Where do I stand right now with my current status?
Is living like this really all there is to a man’s life?

* repeat

** repeat

Hoping to be a bridge between k-pop music & k-pop fans who don't understand the Korean language.
