Translated Lyrics

I… I used to have a dream
Though thrown away and torn
and looks worn out
I kept it within my heart as if it was a treasure

Sometimes, though someone laughed at me
for an unknown reason
behind my back
I had to endure, I could endure
For that day…

You always tell me worriedly
That pointless dream is a poison
That this world is like a book, where the end is already written
That it is a reality that can’t be reversed

That’s right, I… I have a dream
I believe in that dream.
Just you watch me.
I can proudly confront
That coldly standing wall called fate.

Some day, I’ll climb over that wall
And fly high to that sky
Even this heavy world cannot bind me.
Let’s spend the day when I’ll laugh at the end of my life together…

You always tell me worriedly
That pointless dream is a poison
That this world is like a book, where the end is already written
That it is a reality that can’t be reversed

That’s right, I… I have a dream
I believe in that dream.
Just you watch me.
I can proudly confront
That coldly standing wall called fate.

Some day, I’ll climb over that wall
And fly high to that sky
Even this heavy world cannot bind me.
Let’s spend the day when I’ll laugh at the end of my life together…

Korean Lyrics

난 난 꿈이 있었죠
버려지고 찢겨 남루하여도
내 가슴 깊숙히 보물과 같이 간직했던 꿈

혹 때론 누군가가
뜻 모를 비웃음 내 등뒤에 흘릴 때도
난 참아야 했죠 참을 수 있었죠
그날을 위해

늘 걱정하듯 말하죠
헛된 꿈은 독이라고
세상은 끝이 정해진 책처럼
이미 돌이킬 수 없는 현실이라고

(chorus)
그래요 난 난 꿈이 있어요
그 꿈을 믿어요.나를 지켜봐요
저 차갑게 서 있는 운명이란 벽앞에
당당히 마주칠 수 있어요

언젠가 나 그벽을 넘고서
저 하늘을 높이 날을 수 있어요
이 무거운 세상도 나를 묶을 순 없죠
내 삶의 끝에서
나 웃을 그날을 함께해요

Translated Lyrics

Leave me now, forget me now
Just throw me away and live your life, give me back my love I gave you

If you were gone, if you were dead
I’d try to hold back, but right now it’s so hard

I wanted you to look at me just once, to tell me just once
Like you used to, just once
I waited for you like that, I loved you like that

Break away, no I can’t wait
I’ll send you away comfortably
I’ll make my way. I’ll throw my pain
Now I’m able to live without you

I’m leaving you, I’m leaving you with my heart at ease, with happiness
I’m throwing you out of my heart now
I’ve erased all the memories of the hardships in the past, for you

Even if you happen to run into me in the streets, pretend I’m a stranger and keep going
For me, who’s forgotten you
If you happen to come trying to talk to me, I”ll just pretend I don’t know you

Break away, no I can’t wait
I’ll send you away comfortably
I’ll make my way. I’ll throw my pain
Now I’m able to live without you

You just suddenly popped into my head, forgetting for a second that I’ve left you
Even if I come looking for you, pretend you don’t know me
Just say ‘who did you come looking for’ and send me away

I’ll make my way. I’ll throw my pain
I can no longer live looking at you
Break away. No, I can’t wait
Throw me away completely now and leave
I’ll make my way. I’ll throw my pain.
Like you never existed from the beginning

Korean Lyrics

이젠날 떠나가줘 이젠날 다 잊어줘
나를 버리고 살아줘 가져가 내 사랑을 내게 돌려줘
차라리 떠났다면 차라리 죽었다면 어쩔수 없이 참을텐데
이대로 견디기가 너무 힘들어
단한번 나를 봐주기를 말을 해주기를 예전 처럼 단한번만
그렇게 너를 기다리고 너를 사랑해왔는데

break away no I can`t wait 내가 널 보내줄게 편하게
I make my way I through my pain 이젠 나 너없이도 살수 있게

널떠나 맘 편하게 널떠나 행복하게 이젠
내 안에 너를 버려 널위해 힘들었던 지난 날은 지웠어
우연히 나를 보더라도 나를 지나쳐줘 너를 잊은 나를위해(날위해)
혹시 너 말을 걸어와도 나는 모른체 할테니

break away no I can`t wait 내가 널 보내줄게 편하게
I make my way I through my pain 이젠 나 너없이도 살수 있게

갑자기 니가 또 생각나 널 떠난 거란걸 잊고서
내가 널 찾아도 넌 모르는 척 누굴 찾아왔냐고 또 다시 날 돌아서줘

I make my way I through my pain 다시 널 바라보고 살순 없어
break away no I can`t wait 이젠 날 다버리고 떠나줘
I make my way I through my pain 첨부터 넌 없었던 사람처럼

YG Family Concert Los Angeles (October 21, 2006)

Break Away

Never Mind

Woman [여자]

Dream [꿈]

The Real Party – Big Mama, Gummy & Lexy

“Break Away” – ERU + Fly to the Sky + Wheesung (2007.12.29)

Apparently other male Korean singers have attempted Big Mama’s “Break Away” before. Here’s a clip with ERU, Fly to the Sky, Wheesung singing Big Mama’s hit song. I think I like their version slightly better than the recent one because they brought in a bit of their own flavour and styles.

Small Theatre Concerts 2007

Here are some clips from Big Mama’s 2007 mini-concerts in Small Theatre in Daehakro. I love the intimacy of the small concert hall and how close the audience is to the performaners. Wish I was there!

Walking Down the Street

Break Away

Big Mama – Dallasong [달라송]

Trot Medley:
Park Min Hye – 당신의 의미
Shin Yeon Ah – 몰래한 사랑

Note: This single was used in the Meritz Securities TV commerical. Not sure what the rationale was behind the release of this single since it just contains two versions of the birthday song. I wish Big Mama could sing at my birthday party though. :)

Article: “They Will Even Hear Sound of Our Breath”

I stumbled on this old article about Big Mama. It was from 2007 but the interview sheds some light on why they decided to lose weight. It’s an interesting read, so check it out!
