Dalam Wangi
Bin Idris Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gelap dan gulita dihangatkan oleh secercah cahaya lampu
Hanyut kau tenggelam di telan sunyi yang beku
Terbang kau dibuat bagai butiran debu
Harum dari semerbak bunga di pekaranganmu
Teduh dalam naungan atap yang memayungimu
Hanyut kau tenggelam di telan sunyi yang beku
Terbang kau dibuat bagai butiran debu
Lengah kau tak peduli dengan derapnya waktu
Pelan kau menyusup kedalam celah yang bisu
dan sirna
The lyrics to Bin Idris's song Dalam Wangi paint a somber picture of isolation and despair. The opening lines describe the rushing waters of a nearby river, which serve as a stark contrast to the darkness and bleakness of the environment. The glimmer of a single lamp light offers a small glimpse of hope to an otherwise desolate scene. The next lines speak to the overwhelming feeling of being engulfed by a silent, icy void. The imagery of being carried away as tiny specs of dust is a metaphor for feeling insignificant and powerless to change one's circumstances.
The final lines imply a sense of resignation and acceptance of one's fate. The scent of blooming flowers serves as a momentary distraction from the dreariness but offers no lasting comfort. The shelter of a roof provides some semblance of protection but ultimately cannot shield from the overwhelming feeling of being lost and alone. The repetition of the lines "hanyut kau tenggelam di telan sunyi yang beku, terbang kau dibuat bagai butiran debu" reinforces the idea of being consumed by a numbing, frozen emptiness while also being invisible and insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Overall, Dalam Wangi is a poignant depiction of the struggle to find meaning and hope in the midst of great adversity. It speaks to the universal human experience of feeling small and powerless in the face of overwhelming circumstances, while also acknowledging the fleeting moments of beauty and tranquility that make life meaningful.
