EBIET G ADE - ALBUM RENUNGAN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Apa yang tersembunyi di sudut hati
Derita di mata derita dalam jiwa
Kenapa tak engkau pedulikan
Sepasang kepodang terbang melambung
Menukik bawa seberkas pelangi
Gelora cinta gelora dalam dadaKenapa tak pernah engkau hiraukan
Selama musim belum bergulir
Masih ada waktu saling membuka diri
Sejauh batas pengertian
Pintu pun tersibak
Cinta mengalir sebening embun
Kasih pun mulai deras mengalir
Cemerlang sebening embun
Pernahkah engkau coba membaca
Sorot mata dalam menyimpan rindu
Sejuta impian sejuta harapan
Kenapakah mesti engkau abaikan
Selama musim belum bergulir
Masih ada waktu saling membuka diri
Sejauh batas pengertian
Pintu pun tersibak
Cinta mengalir sebening embun
Kasih pun deras mengalir
Cemerlang sebening embun
Selama musim belum bergulir
Masih ada waktu saling membuka diri
Pintu pun tersibak
Cinta mengalir sebening embun
The lyrics of the song "Cinta Sebening Embun" by Ebiet G Ade from the album "Renungan" delve deeply into the complexities of love and human emotions. The opening stanza invites introspection with the question "Pernahkah engkau coba menerka apa yang tersembunyi di sudut hati" (Have you ever tried to guess what is hidden in the corner of the heart). It explores the idea of hidden pain and suffering in both the outward appearance and inner world of a person, questioning why this suffering is often overlooked or disregarded by others.
The imagery of a pair of kepodang birds soaring and diving with a ray of rainbow, symbolizing the turbulence of love and emotions, is evocative and vivid. The reference to "gelora cinta" (the storm of love) within one's chest signifies the intensity and unpredictability of emotions, yet the questioning tone persists as to why these emotions are sometimes ignored or neglected by those involved.
As the lyrics progress, the song emphasizes the importance of opening up and understanding each other before it's too late. The metaphor of the door being opened to reveal a love as pure and clear as dew reflects the idea of vulnerability and transparency in relationships. The repetition of "Cinta mengalir sebening embun" (Love flows as clear as dew) reinforces the concept of love being pure and unadulterated when nurtured and cherished.
The recurring theme of time and missed opportunities adds a sense of urgency and regret to the narrative. The plea to pay attention to the longing gazes and unspoken desires hidden in the eyes conveys a message of not taking love for granted and valuing the connection between individuals. The culminating verses express the overflowing of love, depicted as a torrential flow as bright and sparkling as dewdrops, urging listeners to seize the moment and embrace love before it slips away.
