Tirai tirai cinta
Fitri Handayani Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tlah kuterima undangan merah
ada namamu tertulis disitu
dengan tinta emas
sampai kasih kau sakiti diriku
kau hancurkan harapan hidupku
ketika cinta berbunga indah
layu sebelum berkembangbunga bunga cinta di taman hatiku
kini layu tak bersemi lagi
tirai tirai cinta kelambu hatiku
kini lesu tak memutih lagi
karena dirimu karena cintamu
bukanlah milikku lagi
In Fitri Handayani's song Tirai Tirai Cinta, the singer is expressing the pain and betrayal they feel after realizing that their love interest has broken their heart. At first, the singer was excited to receive a red invitation with the love interest's name written in gold, but as their relationship progressed, their hopes were shattered as their love interest hurt them and destroyed their dreams. The singer compares their love to a beautiful flower that wilted before it even had a chance to bloom, leaving the garden of their heart barren and lifeless. Even the curtains of their love that used to bring a sense of comfort and privacy now seem to be suffocating and depressing.
These lyrics express the hurt and confusion that comes with a broken heart, where one can feel like they've lost a part of themselves in the process. It also shows how one can be blinded by love and hope, only to be let down and hurt by the harsh realities of life. The use of natural imagery, such as flowers and gardens, also adds to the emotional depth of the lyrics, as it symbolizes the fragility and beauty of love.

sungguh kasih tak pernah aku menyangka
I never expected love to come my way
tlah kuterima undangan merah
I received a red invitation
ada namamu tertulis disitu
Your name was written there
dengan tinta emas
In golden ink
sampai kasih kau sakiti diriku
Until your love hurt me
kau hancurkan harapan hidupku
You shattered my hopes and dreams
ketika cinta berbunga indah
When love was in full bloom
layu sebelum berkembang
It withered before it blossomed
bunga bunga cinta di taman hatiku
Flowers of love in the garden of my heart
kini layu tak bersemi lagi
Now they no longer bloom
tirai tirai cinta kelambu hatiku
Curtains of love in the canopy of my heart
kini lesu tak memutih lagi
Now they're dull and no longer white
karena dirimu karena cintamu
Because of you, because of your love
bukanlah milikku lagi
It's no longer mine
