Park Yoochun - How much love do you have in your wallet? Translated Lyrics

Translation of the lyrics to How Much Love Do You Have In Your Wallet? (당신의 지갑에는 얼마의 사랑이 있나요?), title track (track 3) on Yoochun's solo mini album.

If one person falls in love,
Another person will say farewell
If I grow one span, two spans,
Then my mum and dad will become smaller
If I walk tap, tap, one step, two steps,
I see we all live the same, with the same dreams

I hope they will all be achieved

Each passer-by
Their brightly smiling faces
Even though life is tiring, just smiling,
The fact is, life is like that

I hope the whole world will be happy

The tramping of the people
The whispered sound is really good
The fragrance of the street too
Since they are mine, they are really good

I hope every day is just like this

Each passer-by
Their brightly smiling faces
Even though life is tiring, just smiling,
The fact is, life is like that

In the end, in this world
You cannot live exactly according to your desire
Even though it is complicated, it's ok
The fact is, life is like that

All the passers-by
With smiling expressions bright as the sun
Though life is tiring
Even if its just through being together, we are happy

I hope the whole world will be happy.


Translator's Note:  I can't figure out exactly how to translate 뚜벅뚜벅...  I think it's basically a walking sound?  I've gone with "tap-tap" at the start, and "tramping" later on, because I can't think of a good English equivalent.

I think this song has a great message about valuing the little things in life.  ^__^
