2NE1's UGLY: The Real Lyrics (My Transliteration)



I've seen so many translations of this song on the internet, but I think many of them got it wrong and in the end present the wrong tone to the song.

Here's my preferred translation, amalgamated from multiple sources.


[CL] I’m trying to smile brightly but
I don’t like it
I’m not pretty, I’m not beautiful
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
[BOM] I’m trying to sing but
No one is listening
I’m not pretty, I’m not beautiful
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
[DARA] Why am I so ugly?
How can I smile brightly and freely like you?
[MINJI] I’m angry again
Why can’t I be perfect?
All I see is flaws through the shattered glass
[BOM] Don’t look at me, I hate this feeling right now
I want to hide away somewhere, I want to escape
This world is full of lies

CHORUS:
[CL] I think I’m ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don’t lie to my face tellin’ me I’m pretty


I think I’m ugly
And nobody wants to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty I wanna be pretty
Don’t lie to my face ‘cause I know I’m ugly


[MINJI] Don’t tell me that you can understand me so easily
My ugly and crooked heart may come to resent you
[BOM] Don’t talk to me, I can’t get along with you
Your cold fakeness behind your arrogant eyes suffocate me
[MINJI] Stay away
I don’t even want your concern
I just wanna get away anywhere
I just wanna scream out loud
This world is full of lies


CHORUS


[CL, BOM, MINZY] (All alone
I’m all alone
All alone
I’m all alone)
[DARA] I feel no warmth
I have nobody
[CL, BOM, MINZY] (All alone
I’m all alone)
[DARA] I'm always all alone
[CL, BOM, MINZY] (All alone
I’m all alone)
[DARA] I feel no warmth
I have nobody
I have no one to hold me

CHORUS


Transliterated by me
