Neon on my fingertips, fire in the air

손끝에 걸린 네온, 공기 속의 불꽃

Say you feel the pull, meet me right there

이 이끌림을 느낀다면, 거기서 만나

One look, one move, and the night turns new

눈빛 하나, 몸짓 하나에 밤은 새로워져

If you want the world, I’ll run with you

세상을 원한다면, 너와 함께 달릴게

City like a mirror, shining under rain

빗속에 빛나는 거울 같은 도시

Every little heartbeat rides a candy bassline

작은 심장박동마다 캔디 베이스라인이 흘러

You laugh, and the street signs start to glow

네가 웃으면 거리의 표지판들이 빛나기 시작해

Like they know our names, like they know the road

마치 우리 이름을, 우리 갈 길을 아는 것처럼

I used to keep my dreams behind a door

꿈들을 문 뒤에 가둬두곤 했지만

Now you’re the key, and I want more

이제 네가 그 열쇠야, 난 더 많은 걸 원해

We slide through the lights, we don’t ask why

이유도 묻지 않은 채 빛 사이를 미끄러지듯 나아가

Just you and I

오직 너와 나뿐이야

Hands up, breathe in, let the ceiling fade

두 손을 들고, 숨을 들이켜, 천장이 사라지게 둬

No lines, no ends, no rules we made

경계도, 끝도, 우리가 만든 규칙도 없어

Closer, closer, feel the bright collide

가까이, 더 가까이, 찬란한 충돌을 느껴봐

Ready for the ride

달릴 준비는 끝났어

No horizon in our eyes

우리 눈엔 지평선이 없어

We can run until the sunrise

태양이 뜰 때까지 달릴 수 있어

Every road is open, free

모든 길은 열려 있고 자유로워

When you’re here with me

네가 여기 나와 함께 있을 때

No horizon, crystal wide

끝없는 수평선, 수정처럼 넓게 펼쳐진

Waves of light on midnight tides

한여름 밤 파도 위의 빛의 물결

Every door swings open, free

모든 문은 활짝 열려 있고 자유로워

You’re the spark in me

넌 내 안의 불꽃이야

Oh oh, open sky

Oh oh, 열린 하늘

Oh oh, we can fly

Oh oh, 우린 날 수 있어

Round and round, the night goes on

빙글빙글 밤은 계속되고

Hold me now, we’re never done

날 놓지 마, 우린 결코 끝나지 않아

Ocean breeze in the alley, blue on the street

골목 안의 바닷바람, 거리 위의 푸른 빛

Your voice in the echo keeping perfect beat

완벽한 비트를 맞추는 메아리 속 네 목소리

If the world feels heavy, we’ll make it light

세상이 무겁게 느껴진다면, 우리가 가볍게 만들면 돼

Turn the dark to diamonds in the white of night

캄캄한 밤을 하얀 다이아몬드로 바꿔버려

If the morning tries to steal our glow

아침이 우리의 빛을 훔치려 한다면

We’ll hide it where the soft winds flow

부드러운 바람이 흐르는 곳에 숨겨둘 거야

In a room of stars, in a restless sea

별들의 방에서, 일렁이는 바다에서

There’s a place that keeps expanding, quietly

조용히 끝없이 넓어지는 공간이 있어

Hands up, breathe in, let the ceiling fade

두 손을 들고, 숨을 들이켜, 천장이 사라지게 둬

No lines, no ends, no rules we made

경계도, 끝도, 우리가 만든 규칙도 없어

Closer, closer, feel the bright collide

가까이, 더 가까이, 찬란한 충돌을 느껴봐

Ready for the ride

달릴 준비는 끝났어

No horizon in our eyes

우리 눈엔 지평선이 없어

We can run until the sunrise

태양이 뜰 때까지 달릴 수 있어

Every road is open, free

모든 길은 열려 있고 자유로워

When you’re here with me

네가 여기 나와 함께 있을 때

No horizon, crystal wide

끝없는 수평선, 수정처럼 넓게 펼쳐진

Waves of light on midnight tides

한여름 밤 파도 위의 빛의 물결

Every door swings open, free

모든 문은 활짝 열려 있고 자유로워

You’re the spark in me

넌 내 안의 불꽃이야

Neon on the water, still in my eyes

물결 위의 네온, 여전히 내 눈 속에

With you beside me, the world stays wide

네가 내 곁에 있기에, 세상은 여전히 넓어

Neon on my fingertips, fire in the air Say you feel the pull, meet me right there One look, one move, and the night turns new If you want the world, I’ll run with you City like a mirror, shining under rain Every little heartbeat rides a candy bassline You laugh, and the street signs start to glow Like they know our names, like they know the road I used to keep my dreams behind a door Now you’re the key, and I want more We slide through the lights, we don’t ask why Just you and I Hands up, breathe in, let the ceiling fade No lines, no ends, no rules we made Closer, closer, feel the bright collide Ready for the ride No horizon in our eyes We can run until the sunrise Every road is open, free When you’re here with me No horizon, crystal wide Waves of light on midnight tides Every door swings open, free You’re the spark in me Oh oh, open sky Oh oh, we can fly Round and round, the night goes on Hold me now, we’re never done Ocean breeze in the alley, blue on the street Your voice in the echo keeping perfect beat If the world feels heavy, we’ll make it light Turn the dark to diamonds in the white of night If the morning tries to steal our glow We’ll hide it where the soft winds flow In a room of stars, in a restless sea There’s a place that keeps expanding, quietly Hands up, breathe in, let the ceiling fade No lines, no ends, no rules we made Closer, closer, feel the bright collide Ready for the ride No horizon in our eyes We can run until the sunrise Every road is open, free When you’re here with me No horizon, crystal wide Waves of light on midnight tides Every door swings open, free You’re the spark in me Neon on the water, still in my eyes With you beside me, the world stays wide

Summary

Mugung-mujin (無窮無盡) signifies a state of being infinite and inexhaustible, where possibilities or resources are as limitless as a spring that never runs dry. It represents the boundless nature of human imagination, the mysteries of the universe, or the depths of wisdom.

Key Lessons

1

Human potential remains limitless as long as we refuse to impose boundaries upon ourselves.

2

True freedom is found by expanding the horizons of the mind rather than just changing physical circumstances.

3

Opportunities are constantly created when one persists in trying new things within an ever-changing world.

Origin & Background

The idiom is composed of the characters 'Mu' (無 - none), 'Gung' (窮 - limit/end), and 'Jin' (盡 - exhaust). Historically, this phrase frequently appeared in Buddhist scriptures and classical philosophy to describe the infinite providence of the universe or the bottomless wisdom of the Buddha. During the Song Dynasty, the philosopher Zhu Xi used this term to emphasize that the pursuit of truth and academic depth has no boundaries. In a modern context, it evokes the image of an 'endless horizon' or an 'unstoppable night,' representing a world of potential where constraints vanish. It illustrates an energy of love and dreams that expands indefinitely in a space free from limitations.
