Ada Musik di Dalam
Sore Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sampan yang kecil
Berlayar lelah
Berlabuh di tepian pantai
Kota Jakarta...
Diam berkaca
Rimba deritanya
Pijakan debu
Terbang ke awan
Serakah anda menyatakan
Miliki semua rasa
Serahkan seraga kata
Tampisku menghantar
Sarat harapanku
Sarat cerita belia
Jelas terlihat
Lampu menyala
Tersimpan di pantulan cahaya
Jari-jemari
Yang aku cari




Anda tak mengira. huh
Nasi uduk...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sore's song Ada Musik di Dalam paint a vivid picture of a small boat that has been sailing for a while and finally anchored at the shore of Jakarta. From the quiet observation of the Jakarta jungle to the scattered debris and dust that is blown to the sky, the singer reflects on their journey so far. The chorus seems to question the hurry and greediness of people who claim to have everything when in fact they lack empathy and compassion. The singer then goes on to say that they have some stories and hopes to share, as they witness the lights and structures of the cityscape, and search for something that they cannot quite put their finger on while reminiscing about a simple yet satisfying local dish, the nasi uduk.


The lyrics beautifully capture the contrasting experiences of travel, the beauty of nature, and the complex emotions of the overarching theme. The song taps into a sense of nostalgia, searching, and settling that many can identify with. The choice of using the Indonesian language also adds a layer of richness and distance, making the lyrics resonate with both the local and international audience.
