Jangan Pernah
Geisha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jangan pernah berharap
Aku kan bisa tunduk padamu
Ku tahu kau tak cinta
Bukan berarti ku tak mampu

Jangan anggap diriku
Mudah ikuti kata hatimu
Karena kau tak tahu
Hati kecilku tak begitu

Lihatlah sedikit kekuranganmu
Dan lihat sedikit kekuranganku

Jangan pernah kau paksakan cinta
Jangan pernah kau siakan rasa
Ku percaya kamu kan bisa jalani sewajarnya

Jangan kau tutup rasa
Yang hanya membuat kau kan keliru
Bagiku kau kan tahu
Pentingnya ku saat kau jatuh

Lihatlah sedikit kekuranganmu
Dan lihat sedikit kekuranganku

Jangan pernah kau paksakan cinta
Jangan pernah kau siakan rasa
Ku percaya kamu kan bisa jalani sewajarnya

Sampai kapanpun kau takkan bisa merubahku

Jangan pernah kau paksakan cinta
Jangan pernah kau siakan rasa
Ku percaya kamu kan bisa jalani sewajarnya

Jangan pernah kau paksakan cinta




Jangan pernah kau siakan rasa
Ku percaya kamu kan bisa jalani sewajarnya

Overall Meaning

In Geisha's song "Jangan Pernah," the lyrics convey a message of independence and self-assurance. The singer refuses to be subjugated and controlled by another person and warns them not to expect it. She is aware that the other person may not love her, but that does not mean she is incapable of functioning without them. She also warns against the dangers of forcing love and ignoring one's feelings. She advises the other person to look past their flaws and hers and to embrace their relationship with balance and reason. She asserts that her heart is essential to that person's well-being, and they will regret losing her. The song's repeating refrain emphasizes the importance of not pressing love or suppressing one's feelings, as it goes against the natural order of things.


The song's lyrics employ a combination of consonance, repetition, and rhyme to draw attention to various themes. The repeated refrain of "Jangan pernah kau paksakan cinta" (never force love) plays a significant role in the song's overall message. The words "jalan" (path) and "saja" (only) in "jalani sewajarnya" (lead it justly) also offer a playful play on words, emphasizing the importance of taking the right path in love. Throughout the song, the singer's lyrics assert her independence and refusal to be subjugated.
