Suratan Atau Kebetulan
Datuk Sharifah Aini Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sesuatu yang tak di sangka
Seringkali mendatangi kita
Itukah suratan dalam kehidupan
Atau sekadar suatu kebetulan

Kita asyik membicarakan
Persoalan hidup dan pilihan
Serta kejujuran semakin berkurang
Masih tiada bertemu jawapan

Walau kita di hadapkan
Dengan berbagai pilihan
Mengapa sering terjadi
Pilihan tak menepati
Hingga amat menakutkan
Menghadapi masa depan
Seolah olah terhapus
Sebuah kehidupan yang kudus

Pertemuan sekali ini
Bagi diriku amat bererti
Tetapi kubimbang untuk menyatakan
Bimbangkan berulan kesilapan

Walau kita di hadapkan
Dengan berbagai pilihan
Mengapa sering terjadi
Pilihan tak menepati
Hingga amat menakutkan
Menghadapi masa depan
Seolah olah terhapus
Sebuah kehidupan yang kudus

Pertemuan sekali ini
Bagi diriku amat bererti




Tetapi kubimbang untuk menyatakan
Bimbangkan berulan kesilapan
