Kehilangan
Rhoma Irama Lyrics

The lyrics to Rhoma Irama's song Kehilangan speak about the feeling of loss and the realization of someone's worth only after they are gone. The song starts with the singer acknowledging that he only realizes the value of someone's presence when it's too late, and he has lost them. He admits that losing that person has made him feel heavy and life without them is difficult to bear. The lyrics remind listeners that everything in this world comes to an end and people must separate, but the singer asks the universe to delay that end, even though he knows it's inevitable. He isn't denying what should happen, but he's asking for strength to endure the loss when it comes.

The song works on a universal level since many of us have experienced or will experience such a loss in our lives. The singer is not just mourning the loss of someone's physical presence but, more importantly, the emotional value that person added to his life that he took for granted. By asking for strength, the singer is not necessarily asking for things to go back to the way they used to be. Instead, he's asking for the strength to accept and move on, albeit with a heavy heart. The song captures the bittersweet feelings of finally realizing the worth of someone, all while mourning their loss.
