Perawan Cinta
Rossa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Terpenjara dalam cintamu
Bibir beku tak dapat berucap
Sulit menolak
Terlambat kurasakan cinta
Kepedihan kan menanti aku
Kesucian cintamu berdua
Telah ternoda
Bila mencintaimu yang t'lah berdua
Seolah aku perawan cinta
Yang haus kasih
Ku hanya mencoba bermain api
Namun sulit akhirnya aku padamkan
Hati kecilku mengapa kau kini
Harus di akhiri
Sering kudengar suara-suara
Risih menyalahkan diriku
Bila aku jadi pasanganmu
Pasti merana
The lyrics of Rossa's song Perawan Cinta tell the story of a woman who falls in love with someone who is already in a relationship. The singer feels trapped in this love, unable to express her feelings due to the shame and stigma that comes with being the "other woman." She questions whether she is wrong for loving someone who is already taken, and wonders if her love is pure or tainted. The woman is torn between her desire for love and the guilt that comes with it, and ultimately decides that it is best to end the relationship to spare herself and the man she loves from further pain.
This song speaks to the universal experience of forbidden love and the inner turmoil that comes with it. It highlights the societal pressure and judgment that people face when they fall in love with someone who is already in a relationship. The lyrics are powerful and moving, portraying the raw emotions of a woman who is struggling to come to terms with her feelings and her perceived role in a relationship.
Overall, Rossa's Perawan Cinta is a poignant and heartfelt ballad that explores the complexities of love and relationships. It offers a relatable and empathetic perspective on a taboo topic that many people have experienced in their lives.

T'lah terlukis kisah diriku
My story has already been written
Terpenjara dalam cintamu
I am trapped in your love
Bibir beku tak dapat berucap
My frozen lips cannot speak
Sulit menolak
It's hard to resist
Terlambat kurasakan cinta
I'm feeling love too late
Kepedihan kan menanti aku
Suffering awaits me
Kesucian cintamu berdua
The purity of your love is tainted by two
Telah ternoda
It has already been defiled
Haruskah kumerasa salah di diriku
Should I feel guilty about myself?
Bila mencintaimu yang t'lah berdua
Even though you're already in love with someone else
Seolah aku perawan cinta
As if I'm a virgin to love
Yang haus kasih
Desperately craving for love
Ku hanya mencoba bermain api
I'm only playing with fire
Namun sulit akhirnya aku padamkan
But it's hard for me to put it out
Hati kecilku mengapa kau kini
Why is my heart now
Harus di akhiri
Has to come to an end?
Sering kudengar suara-suara
I often hear voices
Risih menyalahkan diriku
Blaming myself uncomfortably
Bila aku jadi pasanganmu
If I become your partner
Pasti merana
I will surely suffer
