Translation - Dionysus

Drink it up
alcohol glass (sippin’), arms linked (tippin’)
one mouthful
Thyrsus (grippin’) grapes (eatin’)
Drink it up
atmosphere (keep it) D style (rip it)
one mouthful
Here (kill it, let’s steal it, the illest)

Just get drunk, like Dionysus
alcohol glass in one hand
thyrsus in the other
Inside the transparent crystal glass
my art is up to the brim
Art is also a drink
If you drink it, you’ll get drunk, fool
You dunno, you dunno, you dunno what to do with
I’ll show you, I’m pushing something totally different
A mic made from a rough tree and ivy
There’s never a sound
from just one breath

Until the sun rises, where’s the party at?
Until I sleep, where’s the party at?
Sing it, sing it again
Drink it, drink it again
We’re born twice

(Drink it up)
The agony of creation
(one mouthful)
The angry scolding of this generation
(Drink it up)
Communicate with me
(One mouthful)
Okay, now I’m ready for sure

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Drunk on art, call out “ongheya”

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Hit the small gong and call out “ongheya”

Drink it up
alcohol glass (sippin’), arms linked (tippin’)
one mouthful
Thyrsus (grippin’) grapes (eatin’)
Drink it up
atmosphere (keep it) D style (rip it)
one mouthful
Here (kill it, let’s steal it, the illest)

Now I’m in front of the door to the world
The cheers I hear when I go up on stage
Can’t you see my stacked broken Thyrsus
I’m now born again, at last
When the night comes
mumble, mumble, mumble
When the night comes
tumble, tumble, tumble
The studio is filled with the low, low, low tone
Bass drum goes like dum, dum, dum

Until the sun rises, where’s the party at?
Until I sleep, where’s the party at?
Sing it, sing it again
Drink it, drink it again
We’re born twice

(Drink it up)
The agony of creation
(one mouthful)
The angry scolding of this generation
(Drink it up)
Communicate with me
(One mouthful)
Okay, now I’m ready for sure

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Drunk on art, call out “ongheya”

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Hit the small gong and call out “ongheya”

If we show up
it’s a stadium party, no matter where in the world
Born as a K-Pop idol
but reincarnated again as an artist
reincarnated as an artist
reincarnated as an artist
Being an idol or an artist, what’s important about that? Cheers
If art is to this extent
it’s excessive drinking, excessive drinking
New records are a fight with myself
Raise a toast, one shot
But I’m still as thirsty as ever
What

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Drunk on art, call out “ongheya”

Drink, drink, drink, drink all of my glass
Everybody fall, fall, fall for the crazy artist
One glass (one shot), two glasses (two shots)
Hit the small gong and call out “ongheya”

Drink it up
alcohol glass (sippin’), arms linked (tippin’)
one mouthful
Thyrsus (grippin’) grapes (eatin’)
Drink it up

one mouthful

Dionysus – The Greek god of wine, festivity, madness, wild frenzy, and pleasure, sometimes depicted as an old man or as an effeminate young man with long hair. He carried a thyrsus, which was a staff with a pine cone on the tip, as well as a drinking glass. He also wore ivy crowns. He’s also known as the god of the theatre.

Thyrsus – the staff that Dionysus carried and was associated with him and his followers. It symbolized prosperity, fertility, and hedonism. Often seen with a wine glass in the other hand.

The small gong – refers to a specific small gong used in Korean folk music.

“Ongheya” – a call used in traditional Korean folk music (similar to the calls used as lyrics in “Idol”.)
