잠든 일기장 (The Sleeping Diary) (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The soft humming at the start feels like someone remembering old memories or emotions coming back. It sets a calm, emotional tone for the story that’s about to unfold.

[Verse 1]
The singer is looking back at a faded diary filled with childhood emotions that were once forgotten. These memories bring back a lost voice and a shaky heart that starts to feel alive again. Someone close encourages them not to give up, saying things will get better and that it’s never too late to start fresh. Even though they once lost direction and felt empty, they’re now rediscovering themselves and finding hope again.

[Chorus]
This part talks about cherishing the last moments of time like the innocence of a child’s memory. The singer doesn’t want to leave the person who brings them comfort. Together, they want to start anew, heal forgotten feelings, and keep writing their shared story.

[Post-Chorus]
Here, the fallen diary represents lost or forgotten promises. The singer believes they’ll meet that person again someday and that their unfinished story will continue, just like pages waiting to be written.

[Verse 2]
The singer takes small, uncertain steps toward the future, writing each new day with care. Their days slowly become brighter and more meaningful because that special person fills their world again.

[Pre-Chorus]
The comforting words return — it’s never too late and tomorrow will be better. These words give strength when the singer stumbles or feels lost. They’re learning to find themselves again, turning their emptiness into renewal and hope for what’s ahead.

[Chorus]
The singer reflects on the time left, comparing it to precious childhood memories. They don’t want to be apart from the person who helped them rediscover warmth and love. With an open heart, they choose to keep building their story together.

[Bridge]
Even if distance separates them, their hearts remain connected. The singer’s emotions, once locked away, can now be opened anytime — showing that their bond lives on. What feels like a goodbye is actually another beginning, filled with warmth and quiet faith.

[Chorus]
The singer once again talks about time and memories that can’t be left behind. The diary holds a promise — a belief that they’ll meet again someday. This shows a deep faith in love that survives time and distance.

[Outro]
The final lines echo hope and belief. The singer repeats their faith that they’ll meet again, ending the song with a peaceful sense of trust and longing.
