Wahana Jalan Tikus
Morfem Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Semua orang rebutan di depan
Di jalan raya yang kian sempit
Kendaraan bertambah tiap jam
Diiringi klakson hingar-bingar

Oh, jalan tikus menjadi pilihan
Minimalkan panas yang menyinari
Mengurangi geram, umpatan tertekan

Jalan tikus sebuah pelarian, oh-oh

Hanya muat sebuah kendaraan
Anak kecil bermain dalam gang
Tiada halaman di setiap rumah
Keluar pintu, berjumpa selokan

Oh, jalan tikus menjadi pilihan
Dunia baru telah dipaparkan
Lewati wahana yang sungguh berbeda
Jalan tikus t′lah membuka mata, oh-oh

Oh, jalan tikus menjadi pilihan
Kupelankan roda dua melaju

Gang ini adalah taman bermain mereka
Tertawa bersama teman-teman, oh-oh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Morfem's song Wahana Jalan Tikus describe the chaos and crowds of a busy road and the small alleyways, or "jalan tikus," that become a refuge from the noise and heat. The singer describes how everyone is fighting for space on the increasingly narrow road, with more and more vehicles adding to the constant blare of honking horns. In contrast, the jalan tikus is a peaceful escape, where only one vehicle can fit and children can play without the dangers of the main road.

As the song continues, the jalan tikus becomes more than just a physical escape, but a metaphorical one as well. The singer describes it as a "world which has been revealed" and a place where they can escape the anger and frustration of the world. The jalan tikus opens their eyes to a new perspective and becomes a source of joy and laughter, as friends play together in the small alleyways.

Overall, the lyrics to Wahana Jalan Tikus celebrate the small joys and refuges within a chaotic world. The jalan tikus becomes a symbol of hope and a reminder that there is always a way to find peace amidst the noise and crowds.

Everyone is fighting for space on the narrow road

Di jalan raya yang kian sempit
On the increasingly narrow main road

Kendaraan bertambah tiap jam
Vehicles increase every hour

Diiringi klakson hingar-bingar
Accompanied by blaring horns

Oh, jalan tikus menjadi pilihan
Oh, the alleyways become an option

Minimalkan panas yang menyinari
Minimizes the heat that shines down

Reduces irritation, suppressed curses

The alleyways are an escape, oh-oh

Hanya muat sebuah kendaraan
Only one vehicle can fit

Anak kecil bermain dalam gang
Children playing in the alley

Tiada halaman di setiap rumah
No yards in front of the houses
