Kerispatih was founded on 22 April 2003. They started by playing ethnic Indonesian music, releasing their first album, Gulalikustik, in 2004. After being approached and signed by the record label Nagaswara, they switched to pop as it was more commercially viable.
Their first album with Nagaswara, "Kejujuran Hati" (The Heart's Honesty), was released in 2005 and went platinum; three songs from the album, "Kejujuran Hati", "Cinta Putih" ("White Love") and "Lagu Rindu" ("Song of Longing"), were released as singles. In 2007, they released a second album, "Kenyataan Perasaan" (The Truth of the Feelings), with the songs "Mengenangmu" ("Remembering You"), "Tapi Bukan Aku" ("But Not I"), "Sepanjang Usia" ("For All My Life") and "Untuk Pertama Kali" ("For the First Time") as singles; this album also went platinum. That same year they also sang one song, "Kawan" ("Friend") for the compilation album Rinduku Padamu (My Longing For You), written by Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono; the album sold 40,000 copies.
Another platinum certified album, "Tak Lekang Oleh Waktu" (Unbridled by Time) was released the following year, with singer Syahrini as a guest vocalist; the album also featured a song, "Kawanku" ("My Friend") written by President Yudhyono. Selling 25,000 copies in a short period of time, two of its songs were released as singles, "Bila Rasaku Ini Rasamu" ("If this Feeling of Mine is Yours") and "Demi Cinta" ("For Love"). This was followed in 2009 by Semua Tentang Cinta (Everything About Love), which had one single.
Sammy's departure & new vocalist: At first, the band consisted of vocalist Hendra Samuel Simorangkir (Sammy), keyboardist Doadibadai Hollo (Badai), guitarist Arief Nurdiansyah Morada, drummer M. Anton Suryo Sularjo Wahyu Nugroho Kusumo, and bassist Andika Putrasahadewa. After Sammy was arrested and convicted of possession of crystal meth in 2010, he was fired from the group and replaced by Fandy Santoso, a finalist in the fourth season of Indonesian Idol.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ku mengenal hatimu
Jelas ku titipkan
Keagungan cinta
Meski semua itu
Hanyalah sesaat
Tapi kisah kita
Tak mungkin terlupa
Ampuni aku
Tuk semua kelakuanku
Benarkan diri
Tanpa ingin tuk mengerti
Dan semua ini mendewasakanku
Ajariku tuk lebih merenungi
Makna terdalam dari sebuah cinta
Dan semua ini mendewasakanku
Mengalahkan segala keinginan
Cinta sejati tak harus memiliki
Meski semua itu
Hanyalah sesaat
Tapi kisah kita
Tak mungkin terlupa
Ampuni aku
Tuk semua kelakuanku
Benarkan diri
Tanpa ingin tuk mengerti
Semua ini mendewasakanku
Semua ini mendewasakanku
Semua ini mendewasakanku
Semua ini mendewasakanku
Dan semua ini mendewasakanku
Ajariku tuk lebih merenungi
Makna terdalam dari sebuah cinta
Dan semua ini mendewasakanku
Mengalahkan segala keinginan
Cinta sejati tak harus memiliki
Cinta sejati tak harus memiliki
Cinta sejati tak harus memiliki
The first two lines of the song, "Telah cukup jauh, ku mengenal hatimu" translates to "I've come to know your heart quite well." This line sets the stage for the rest of the song which is about the growth and maturity that love can bring.

Here, the singer is saying that the love between the two individuals is large and significant, and that they believe in it. The next line, "Meski semua itu hanyalah sesaat" ("Even though it may only be temporary,") refers to the fleeting nature of all things, including love. However, despite the temporary nature of love, "Tapi kisah kita tak mungkin terlupa" ("but our story will never be forgotten"). This line suggests that despite the end of a romantic relationship, the memories and experiences of can live on and never fully fade away.
The chorus, "Dan semua ini mendewasakanku, ajariku tuk lebih merenungi, makna terdalam dari sebuah cinta" ("And all of this has made me grow, taught me to reflect deeper about the deepest meaning of love") emphasizes that the ending of the relationship has helped the singer grow emotionally and taught them about the true meaning of love. The singer acknowledges that they have not always been perfect, hence the line "Ampuni aku tuk semua kelakuanku, benarkan diri tanpa ingin tuk mengerti" ("Forgive me for my behavior and allow me to be honest without wanting to understand everything perfectly").
Overall, the song talks about the bittersweet experience of love, acknowledging the temporary nature of love while recognizing that the lessons learned from it can be life-changing.
