ABBA Chiquitita ("Little Girl" in Spanish)
스웨덴을 대표하는 전설의 그룹, "ABBA"
ABBA were a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972 by Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, Anni-Frid Lyngstad. They are one of the most popular and successful musical groups of all time, and are one of the best-selling music acts in the history of popular music.
In 1974, ABBA became Sweden's first winner of the Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Waterloo", which in 2005 was chosen as the best song in the competition's history as part of the 50th anniversary celebration of the contest. During the band's main active years, it consisted of two married couples: Fältskog and Ulvaeus, and Lyngstad and Andersson.
With the increase of their popularity, their personal lives suffered, which eventually resulted in the collapse of both marriages. The relationship changes were reflected in the group's music, with later songs featuring darker and more introspective lyrics. After ABBA disbanded in December 1982, Andersson and Ulvaeus continued their success writing music for multiple audiences including stage, musicals and movies, while Fältskog and Lyngstad pursued solo careers.

Ten years after the group broke up, a compilation, ABBA Gold, was released, becoming a worldwide best-seller. In 1999, ABBA's music was adapted into Mamma Mia!, a stage musical that toured worldwide and, as of October 2024, is still in the top-ten longest running productions on both Broadway (closed in 2015) and the West End (still running). A film of the same name, released in 2008, became the highest-grossing film in the United Kingdom that year. A sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, was released in 2018.
ABBA are among the best-selling music artists in history, with record sales estimated to be between 150 million to 385 million sold worldwide and the group were ranked 3rd best-selling singles artists in the United Kingdom with a total of 11.3 million singles sold by 3 November 2012. In May 2023, ABBA were awarded the BRIT Billion Award, which celebrates those who have surpassed the milestone of one billion UK streams in their career. ABBA were the first group from a non-English-speaking country to achieve consistent success in the charts of English-speaking countries, including the United Kingdom, Australia, United States, Republic of Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa.
They are the best-selling Swedish band of all time, and the best-selling band originating in continental Europe. ABBA had eight consecutive number-one albums in the UK. The group also enjoyed significant success in Latin America and recorded a collection of their hit songs in Spanish. ABBA were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2002. The group were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, the first recording artists to receive this honour from outside an Anglophonic country. In 2015, their song "Dancing Queen" was inducted into the Recording Academy's Grammy Hall of Fame. In 2024, the United States Library of Congress included the album Arrival (1976) in the National Recording Registry, which recognises works "worthy of preservation for all time based on their cultural, historical or aesthetic importance in the nation’s recorded sound heritage".
In 2016, the group reunited and started working on a digital avatar concert tour. Newly recorded songs were announced in 2018. Voyage, their first new album in 40 years, was released on 5 November 2021 to positive critical reviews and strong sales in numerous countries. ABBA Voyage, a concert residency featuring ABBA as virtual avatars, opened in May 2022 in London.

’
Chiquitita, tell me what’s wrong
You’re enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes theres no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
Theres no way you can deny it
I can see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet
작은 소녀야, 무엇이 문제인지 내게 말해봐
넌 스스로의 슬픔에 매여있구나
네 눈에는 내일의 희망이 보이질 않아
너의 이런 모습은 보고 싶지 않은걸
넌 부정할 수 없을걸
조용히 슬퍼하는 네 모습을 난 볼 수 있으니
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I’m a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I’m the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you’ve broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together
작은 소녀야, 내게 진실을 말해줘
내 어깨에 기대어 울어도 된단다
난 네가 의지해야만 하는 너의 베스트 프렌드인걸
넌 항상 스스로에게 확신이 있었는데
이제는 부러진 네 날개가 보여
하지만 우리가 같이 고칠 수 있을 거라고 난 믿어
Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
and the scars they’re leavin
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grievin
Chiquitia, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
작은 소녀야, 우린 모두 알지
마음의 상처가 어떻게 오고 가는지
그 상처가 얼마나 깊이 남는지
하지만 밝게 춤을 춘다면 고통은 끝날거야
넌 슬퍼할 시간도 없을걸
작은 소녀야, 지금 우리는 울고 있지만
하지만 네 머리 위 하늘의 태양은 여전히 빛나는구나
이전처럼 다시 한번 네 노래를 듣고 싶어
새로운 노래를 불러줘, 소녀야
예전에 네가 불러주었던 것처럼
새로운 노래를 불러줘, 소녀야
So the walls came tumblin down
And your love’s a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet
벽들은 모두 무너져 내리고
네 사랑도 꺼진 촛불처럼 사라지네
모든 것이 사라졌다는 것이 감당하기 힘들어
작은 소녀야, 내게 진실을 말해줘
넌 부정할 수 없을걸
조용히 슬퍼하는 네 모습을 난 볼 수 있으니
Chiquitia, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go
and the scars they’re leavin
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grievin
Chiquitia, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song Chiquitita
우린 모두 알지
마음의 상처가 어떻게 오고 가는지
그 상처가 얼마나 깊이 남는지
하지만 밝게 춤을 춘다면 고통은 끝날거야
넌 슬퍼할 시간도 없을걸
작은 소녀야, 지금 우리는 울고 있지만
하지만 네 머리 위 하늘의 태양은 여전히 빛나는구나
이전처럼 다시 한번 네 노래를 듣고 싶어
새로운 노래를 불러줘, 소녀야
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
예전에 네가 불러주었던 것처럼
새로운 노래를 불러줘, 소녀야
예전에 네가 불러주었던 것처럼
새로운 노래를 불러줘, 소녀야
