The lyrics of SEAY's song 1 Voice are in Indonesian, and the meaning can be loosely translated to “Hello, good morning. Come on, wake up! Already awake? Promise not to go back to sleep, and have a motivated day”. The song is a cheerful and uplifting start to the day, encouraging the listener to wake up with energy and positivity. The repetition of the phrases “Holaa” and “selamat pagi” (hello, good morning) contributes to the sense of a friendly wake-up call, and the use of the imperative form “ayo dong banguun” (come on, wake up) adds urgency and encouragement.
The lyrics continue with a repetition of the question “udah?” (already?) and the request “janji ya jangan tidur lagi” (promise not to go back to sleep). This highlights the importance of starting the day with purpose and motivation, rather than slipping back into a state of tiredness or apathy. The final line “semangat buat hari ini” (have a motivated day) reinforces this message, implying that the listener has the power to choose their attitude and approach to the day.
Overall, SEAY's song 1 Voice is a simple but effective call to action, encouraging the listener to wake up and start the day with energy and positivity.
