Janjiku
Desy Ratnasari Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Inikah jalanku
Ternoda dan malu
Terlanjur ku serahkan diri
Utuh padamu

Tak pernah ku duga
Dendammu membara
Apa dayaku tlah berjanji
Setia sampai mati

Terlanjur ku berjanji
Akan setia selalu
Janjiku kepadamu
Takkan usang dimakan waktu

Benih cinta kita
Yang menghapus duka
Cinta kau balas dengan tuba
Mengapa oh mengapa

Terlanjur ku berjanji
Akan setia selalu
Janjiku kepadamu
Sumpah setia bersama
Aku percaya
Tuhan dengar janjiku

Benih cinta kita
Yang menghapus duka
Cinta kau balas dengan tuba
Mengapa oh mengapa

Terlanjur ku berjanji
Akan setia selalu




Janjiku kepadamu
Sumpah setia bersama
Aku percaya
Tuhan dengar janjiku
