Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Asmara yang selalu ada
Sampaikan daku pada titik yang mulia
Hapus hapuskanlah kenangan
Yang pernah menyiksa jiwaku kecewa
Dulu dulu dulu

Kekasihku yang baru
Oh nyatakanlah kata cintamu itu
Supaya takkan terulang lagi
Tipuan asmara pernah kualami
Dulu dulu dulu dulu

Masa lalu masa sedih
Masa kini berganti berseri

Kekasihku yang baru
Oh nyatakanlah kata cintamu itu
Supaya takkan terulang lagi
Tipuan asmara pernah kualami
Dulu dulu dulu dulu

Masa lalu masa sedih
Masa kini berganti berseri

Kekasihku yang baru
Oh nyatakanlah kata cintamu itu
Supaya takkan terulang lagi




Tipuan asmara pernah kualami
Dulu dulu dulu dulu

Overall Meaning

The song "Api Asmara" by Rafika Duri is a poignant reflection on the pain and disappointment of past relationships and the hope for new love. The first verse acknowledges the presence of love (Asmara) that has always been there, but asks it to lead the singer to a noble point where the memories of heartache can be erased. The use of the word hapus (erase) suggests a desire to move beyond the pain and start anew. The repetition of "dulu" (once or in the past) at the end of each line reinforces the idea of a past that needs to be left behind.


The second verse introduces a new lover and a plea for them to declare their love so that the painful past is not repeated. The singer has clearly been deceived in the past ("tipuan asmara") and wants to ensure that they do not experience that pain again. The repetition of "dulu" once again emphasizes the importance of leaving the past behind and moving on with renewed hope.


The chorus repeats the plea for the new lover to declare their love and avoid repeating the past. The phrase "masa lalu masa sedih" (past sad times) contrasts with the idea of the present ("masa kini berganti berseri" - present changes beautifully) and offers the hope that love can bring a brighter future. Overall, the song offers a message of healing and the hope for new love to replace the pain of the past.
