I'm in tears now. *sobs* I immediately loved this song the first time I heard it and now that I learned its lyrics... Gosh! No words can describe how I feel. It's such a meaningful song. Yep, they're gonna stay as the girls that we love and be the ladies that we admire and support with no matter what.

Thanks for the lyrics and translation. Kudos to all subbers.

When I first heard that song, I immediately thought "The meaning will be amazing".
Seriously, only the English parts made me tear up.
I don't know why, but this song makes me cry...
The thought of staying girls forever.... girls as in Girls' Generation... seriously, makes me sooo emotional.
It's like I'm realizing why I love them once again.
The lyrics... how can it be so perfect?
Thank you a lot for the translation

I only heard a preview of the song on Tumblr, so when I found out that the lyrics were out, I decided to listen to the song while reading the lyrics to make it more meaningful. And I'm glad I did so, because the lyrics are so beautiful that I'm honestly a little teary now.

This song describes Girls' Generation, the 'So Nyuhs', perfectly. Because right now all of them are in their 20s, obviously they're slowly becoming women/ladies. Yet they're still the silly, dorky, cute, lovable girls that we know and they'll stay like that as long as they can because they'll always stay girls.

This song also seems to be a message to their sunbaenims, themselves and SONEs combined. "After meeting you, how much have I changed? I can't see it myself, but have I become closer to the person that I admire?" This line could be for their sunbaenims, not technically meeting them but just knowing about them and being in love with their music. After all, BoA was the inspiration to many K-idols. "Be ladies but we stay girls" could be just telling the members, that no matter how would they age, they'll be young at heart. And while "Your voice supported me" could also be for their sunbaenims because I remember Tiffany saying something about her sunbaenim supporting her when she felt down, it could also be for SONEs, cheering them on.

I guess I'll have a new song on repeat from now on.

"

Be ladies, but we

I always thought it was "We're ladies, but we stay girls" ? Oh well, guess i was wrong. Anyway i really really looove this song ! It's one of my fav in the album.

Even though our girls are maturing into beautiful women, they are always the young girls i've first seen a few years ago in my eyes (: .

Thanks for the translation !

Japanese albums don't work that way. After the 3 singles that were released before the album, there are no more singles after the album has been released.

Anyways, thanks for the translation, love this song

I love this song. It's my favorite ballad on the album. With the girls being pulled in so many directions nowadays, it's good to know that they still haven't changed. I have a feeling that this song and "Not Alone" will move the girls to tears during their tour. Thanks for the translation!
