Suratan Atau Kebetulan
Datuk Sharifah Aini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Seringkali mendatangi kita
Itukah suratan dalam kehidupan
Atau sekadar suatu kebetulan
Kita asyik membicarakan
Persoalan hidup dan pilihan
Serta kejujuran semakin berkurang
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

Sesuatu yang tak di sangka
Unexpected events often happen to us
Seringkali mendatangi kita
They come to us frequently
Itukah suratan dalam kehidupan
Is it fate in life?
Atau sekadar suatu kebetulan
Or just a coincidence?
Kita asyik membicarakan
We keep talking about
Persoalan hidup dan pilihan
Life problems and choices

And honesty is decreasing
Masih tiada bertemu jawapan
Still, no answer is found
Walau kita di hadapkan
Even though we are faced with
Dengan berbagai pilihan
Various choices

Why does it often happen
Pilihan tak menepati
That choices don't meet

To the point of being frightening
Menghadapi masa depan
Facing the future

Seems to be erased
Sebuah kehidupan yang kudus
A sacred life
Pertemuan sekali ini
This one meeting
Bagi diriku amat bererti
Means a lot to me
Tetapi kubimbang untuk menyatakan
But I'm afraid to say
Bimbangkan berulan kesilapan
Worrying about making mistakes
