Tirai
Fitri Handayani Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sungguh kasih tak pernah aku menyangka
Tlah ku trima undangan merah
Ada namamu terlukis disitu
Dengan tinta emas

Sampai kasih kau sakiti diriku
Kau hancurkan harapan hidupku
Ketika cinta berbunga indah

Layu sebelum berkembang

Bunga-bunga cinta di taman hatiku
Kini layu tak bersemi lagi
Tirai-tirai cinta kelambu hatiku
Kini lusuh tak memutih lagi
Karena dirimu karena cintamu
Bukanlah milikku lagi

Sampai kasih kau sakiti diriku
Kau hancurkan harapan hidupku
Ketika cinta berbunga indah
Layu sebelum berkembang

Bunga-bunga cinta di taman hatiku
Kini layu tak bersemi lagi
Tirai-tirai cinta kelambu hatiku
Kini lusuh tak memutih lagi
Karena dirimu karena cintamu
Bukanlah milikku lagi

Bunga-bunga cinta di taman hatiku
Kini layu tak bersemi lagi
Tirai-tirai cinta kelambu hatiku

Kini lusuh tak memutih lagi
Karena dirimu karena cintamu
