Senar Senja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Berhembus angin di setiap sudut jendela
Balada di pagi buta
Yang setia memuja
Di sepertiga waktunya
Balada hati yang buta
Yang kadang terlupa
Di ruang waktu di mana 'ku akan berlabuh
Dan berkeluh merayu waktu untuk berlalu
Balada di pagi buta
Yang setia memuja
Di sepertiga waktunya
Balada hati yang buta
Yang kadang terlupa
Nikmat yang terdusta
The lyrics of Senar Senja's song Balada Pagi Buta capture the essence of a quiet and lonely morning where the wind blows through the corners of the window. The song describes a ballad of the blind heart that forgets the pleasures that have been left behind. The main theme of the song is the struggle with time; time that seems to go by so quickly and the feeling of trying to hold on.
The song's chorus is especially powerful, describing the morning ballad that remains loyal to worship, which is played during the third of its time. It speaks of the heart's blind ballad that is sometimes forgotten, and the pleasures that have been deceived. The melancholic tone of the song further evokes a sense of sadness and loneliness.
As a whole, the song is open to different interpretations but the most common one is the constant struggle we all face in life to hold onto the things that make us happy, that we cherish and are fleeting. The singer urges the listeners to value what they have because it is easy to forget what we already have in front of us.
