Jimin's Secret Song "Letter": Lyrics in English, Meaning
Jimin Hid a Secret Song Featuring Jungkook On His New Album
If you decided to pass on purchasing the physical edition of Jimin's debut solo album, "Face," you might come to regret that decision.
Jimin shared his album track list in late February, revealing there would be six songs on the project in total. But fans who received their albums in the post on 24 March were surprised to discover a seventh, secret song. The track, called "Letter," is a beautiful, mostly acoustic ballad with lyrics that may as well be an actual love letter from Jimin.
Making the ethereal song even more special is that fans instantly recognised Jimin's BTS bandmate Jungkook's unmistakable vocals on the track adding trills and adlibs throughout the final minute of the song.
Where Is Jimin's "Face" Album Secret Song?
Fans reported on Twitter that the final track on the album, which is officially the English version of "Like Crazy" on the track list, is actually 10 minutes long. If you let the track play on after its expected runtime, there are about two minutes of silence before "Letter" begins to play at the 6:13 mark.
Fans shared photos of the album credits that confirm the title of the song is "Letter," which was produced by Jimin alongside Ghstloop, Pdogg, and Evan. Jungkook provides background vocals on the song.
Jimin's "Letter" Meaning
It's not hard to guess who Jimin wrote this love song to. The song beginning at the 6:13 mark — aka the anniversary of BTS's debut — is a dead giveaway that Jimin's fans probably inspired the love letter. In lyrics like, "I hope you become happier. Whenever I tripped and fell, the one who reached out their hand to me was you," and "By my side, just stay so I can give back just how much I've received," Jimin is promising he'll give back as much as he's received from the people who have supported him throughout the years.
Jimin's "Letter" Lyrics in English
Here are the "Letter" lyrics in English, according to a translation by Twitter user @Studio_0613.
VERSE 1
What should I say?
And how should I deliver it?
I'm just clumsy [with my words]
I know that it's obvious, but
I'll deliver these words
So they're not taken lightly
CHORUS
I say oh oh
I hope you become happier
Whenever I tripped and fell
The one who reached out their hand to me was you
I say oh oh
Now I'll be the one to hold you
When you want to cry
So you won't trip and fall
VERSE 2
Even after time passes
Will you remain the same?
Like when we first met
If we are together
Just like we were then
When even the desert could become a sea
CHORUS
I say oh oh
I sincerely hope we are forever
In the cold winter,
The one who was like a warm spring day to me was you
I say oh oh
I'll always cherish them-
Those moments that filled what's between you and me
POST-CHORUS
Baby don't leave
By my side just stay yeah
So I can give back just how much I've received
So I can keep my word
To you, who saw me to be bigger/greater than my tiny little self
Don't worry
By your side just stay yeah
Because we don't know what days await us
Though it's scary, though we're afraid
Never forget that we're together
OUTRO
I know that it's obvious, but
I'll deliver these words
So they're not taken lightly
