Poet Artist Lyrics – SHINee

Poet Artist Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: All]
They’re asking to be seen as both a poet and an artist — someone who expresses deep feelings and creativity. It’s like a strong self-introduction where they proudly claim their identity.

[Verse 1: Taemin, Onew, Minho, Key]
They want to hear that someone has been waiting just for them. They’re asking to be told they’re the dream, the only light in someone’s life. The beauty of the other person is so overwhelming, it feels poetic, even dizzying. It’s a mix of admiration and emotional longing.

[Pre-Chorus: Onew, Key, Key & Onew, *Minho*]
They’re describing someone’s heavenly vibe—sky-like, bright lips, captivating eyes—all watching them. They ask not to be misunderstood or trapped by labels. That moment of touching hands feels magical and full of energy.

[Chorus: All]
They’re encouraging someone not to just sit still—come closer, be present. Everyone should gather and enjoy the moment like it’s the last. Even the wind seems to be in sync, blowing gently between them. Everything feels just right.

[Post-Chorus: All]
Again, they repeat that proud call—poet, artist. It’s like a reminder that they’re more than just performers—they express emotions and stories creatively.

[Verse 2: Onew, Minho]
They say there’s no wall between them and the other person, no matter how others see it. They don’t want hesitation or nervousness—just honest reactions. Without this connection, everything feels dull and empty, like a blank sheet of paper.

[Pre-Chorus: Key, Taemin, Taemin & Key, *Onew*]
Once again, they admire the other person’s dreamy features. Their gaze feels powerful. They don’t want to be boxed in or misjudged. That one touch still feels electric and unforgettable.

[Chorus: All]
They repeat the call for connection and togetherness. It’s about not holding back, joining in, and enjoying the moment loudly and joyfully. Even nature seems to join in that harmony.

[Bridge: Minho, Taemin, Key, Onew, *Onew & Key*]
They proudly say they always seek something new and don’t want to be limited by rules or boxes. They want their voice to grow, to flow with rhythm and emotion. They’re embracing creativity without boundaries, fully owning their identity as poet and artist.

[Interlude]
This short moment gives space to breathe and lets the emotions settle for a beat before the final push.

[Chorus: All, Taemin, Onew, Minho]
They return to that same energy—don’t just sit quietly, be here with me. Everyone come together, be loud, live in the moment. It’s a call to enjoy life together, fully and freely, like it’s the last chance.

[Post-Chorus: All]
They keep repeating who they are: a poet, an artist. It’s not just a label—it’s their way of expressing life, love, and creativity with no limits, no fear, and full pride.
