Light A Flame Lyrics in English SEVENTEEN

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Light A Flame by SEVENTEEN from Korean to English.
Aseuraseulhage seoneul ta
We're walking a tight line
Neomeul deut mal deuthage matdaeun
Almost crossing, almost not
Secret sign
Secret sign
Ganjireoun maeumui moksoriga
The ticklish voice of our hearts
Goyohan hosu hangaunde yodongchige
Makes the calm lake ripple
Chotburui bit hanae uijihan chae
Leaning on a single candlelight
Seororeul chaja bulbicheul barabogo
We seek each other, gaze at the glow
Geurimjaneun moyeoseo hanaro
Our shadows gather as one
Almyeonseodo moreuneun cheok
We pretend not to know
Oneuri piryohadan geol
That we need today
We already know, losing control
We already know, losing control
Bimirui neupui kkeuteun
At the end of the secret swamp
Saeroun sijagin geol
Is a new beginning
Jigeum i ondoe
At this very temperature
Seodureuji ma
Don't rush
Ne maeume bureul jipyeo
Set your heart on fire
Ne maeume bureul jipyeo
Set your heart on fire
Ne maeume bureul
Light up your heart
Keun sorineun piryo eopseo
No need to shout
Sigye sorineun uriui meteuronom
The clock's ticking is our metronome
I hanmadiga
This one word
Gipge sum swige hae
Makes us breathe deep
Seolmyeonghal piryo eopjana
No need to explain
Chochimui sokdocheoreom
Like the second hand's pace
Iljeonghan sokdoro deo
Steadily, a bit faster
Gyesok gago sipeo
Wanna keep going
Almyeonseodo moreuneun cheok
We pretend not to know
Seoroege ppajigo isseo
We're falling for each other
We already know, losing control
We already know, losing control
Bimirui neupui kkeuteun
At the end of the secret swamp
Saeroun sijagin geol
Is a new beginning
Jigeum i ondoe
At this very temperature
Seodureuji ma
Don't rush
Ne maeume bureul jipyeo
Set your heart on fire
Ne maeume bureul jipyeo
Set your heart on fire
Ne maeume bureul
Light up your heart
Bimirui neupui kkeuteun
At the end of the secret swamp
Tto dareun sijagin geol
It's another beginning
Du nuneul gameumyeo
Closing both eyes
Gakkawojil ttae deo tteugeopge
It gets hotter the closer we get
Maeume bureul jipyeo
Set our hearts on fire

SONG MEANING

Light A Flame by the South-Korean act SEVENTEEN feels like sneaking away to a quiet lakeside at midnight with someone who makes your heart race. The lyrics paint a scene where two people exchange a secret sign, hear only the metronome-like ticking of a clock, and keep their voices low so the world will not interrupt. In that hush, a single spark grows into a warming fire in their chests, symbolizing rising attraction and an irresistible pull toward each other.

As the song progresses, the “flame” becomes a metaphor for giving in to these feelings. Words like “losing control,” “new beginning,” and “don’t rush” suggest a moment balanced between anticipation and surrender. SEVENTEEN invites listeners to feel the slow build of heat, let curiosity eclipse hesitation, and enjoy the thrill of kindling something electrifying and new. Light A Flame is ultimately about trusting the chemistry, embracing the mystery, and allowing a shared spark to blaze into unforgettable connection.
