Kasih Berduka
M. Osman Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Diwaktu malam hujan gerimis
Kasihku termenung dan menangis
Agaknya berduka hati
Terkenang nasib sendiri
Tiada orang ketahui
Wajahnya muram sahaja
Tiada tanda gembira
Yang akan membawa riang

Suasana sepi
Yang tidak bermaya
Turut samalah berduka

Kepada dia aku tanyakan
Mungkinkah terjadi kesalahan
Apa aku yang berdosa
Atau ada penghalangnya
Hubungan kita berdua
Biarlah aku terima
Segala azab derita
Didalam mencapai cinta

Suasana sepi
Yang tidak bermaya
Turut samalah berduka

Kepada dia aku tanyakan
Mungkinkah terjadi kesalahan
Apa aku yang berdosa
Atau ada penghalangnya
Hubungan kita berdua
Biarlah aku terima

Segala azab derita
Didalam mencapai cinta
