English Translation version
[Verse 1: Lee Songhyun]
Why are you looking at me like that? woah, oh, oh
Even that moon is dyeing red
Is it a bit unfamiliar? woah, oh, oh
The sweetness makes me go blind
[Pre-Chorus: Na Yeongjoo]
Tell me what you see, when the flower petals scatter
Tell me what you want, will you embrace me?
Wrap me in an unfamiliar scent
Until the moon falls asleep
[Chorus: Lee Songhyun, Na Yeongjoo]
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
I've fallen into the sweetness
Rat-dat-dat-dat-dat
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
A poison bite that will swallow you up
A fatal delight
[Post-Chorus: Na Yeongjoo]
Ooh-ooh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2: Lee Songhyun, Na Yeongjoo]
It's coloring me, woah, ah, ah
Cross the line over the thorny path (Cross it)
I am one, two, three, four
Filled with nothing but bad thoughts
Become the starlight for me in the darkness
[Pre-Chorus: Lee Songhyun]
Tell me what you see, when that moon grows larger
Tell me what you want, please don't hesitate
Hold me tight in this ecstatic dream
Until the sun comes up
[Chorus: Na Yeongjoo, Lee Songhyun]
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
I've fallen into the sweetness
Rat-dat-dat-dat-dat
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
A poison bite that will swallow you up
A fatal delight
[Bridge: Na Yeongjoo]
Even if it's just a passing fate
It's alright, please remember it
[Pre-Chorus: Na Yeongjoo, Lee Songhyun]
(Ah) You've fallen deeply for me
(Oh-oh) You've fallen so deeply
(Ooh-ooh) It has completely stolen my soul
Like a, like a, like a déjà-vu
[Chorus: Na Yeongjoo, Lee Songhyun]
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
I've fallen into the sweetness
Rat-dat-dat-dat-dat
Run you'd better
Run you'd better run
A poison bite that will swallow you up
A fatal delight

💭 Meaning of "HAWWAH" Song Lyrics
"HAWWAH" takes its meaning from the characters in its title — 夏渦, a "summer whirlpool". That image is the whole song: a desire that starts hidden and small, then swells and spins outward into full-blown longing, pulling the person under like a current they cannot resist.
Where many pop songs treat wanting as something bright and simple, dodree frame it as a slow, almost hypnotic descent — the moment a quiet feeling becomes impossible to ignore. That mood is mirrored in the music: gayageum riffs and dreamy synths swirl together in the duo's signature "K-rossover Pop", so the sound itself eddies and pulls the way the lyric describes. Part of a release exploring choice and desire, "HAWWAH" is about surrendering to a longing you know is bigger than you. A closer, line-by-line reading will be added here in time.
