Hanyalah Engkau
Utha Likumahuwa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tumpuan kalbu cita dan cintaku hanyalah engkau
Hari berganti hari waktu terus berlalu kau pun tak tahu
Mengapa begitu semuanya membisu tiada berlagu
Pada siapa lagi harus kubertanya kalau bukan engkau
Serasa tiada berarti bila hidup sendiri
Walau berjuta bintang yang datang bersemi menghibur diri
Namun kesepian slalu datang mencekam tiada berhentiOh kekasih... dengarlah kata hatiku
Rinduku hanya untukmu
Oh kekasih... biarkan tangis berlagu
Jangan kau simpan di hati
Pada siapa lagi harus kubertanya kalau bukan engkau
Serasa tiada berarti bila hidup sendiri
Walau berjuta bintang yang datang bersemi menghibur diri
Namun kesepian slalu datang mencekam tiada berhenti
Oh kekasih... dengarlah kata hatiku
Rinduku hanya untukmu
Oh kekasih... biarkan tangis berlagu
Jangan kau simpan di hati

Rindu hatiku damba diriku hanyalah engkau
My heart longs for myself, but only you can fulfill that longing.
Tumpuan kalbu cita dan cintaku hanyalah engkau
You are the anchor of my hopes, dreams, and love.
Hari berganti hari waktu terus berlalu kau pun tak tahu
Days go by, time keeps moving, and you are unaware.
Mengapa begitu semuanya membisu tiada berlagu
Why does everything stay silent and not sing?
Pada siapa lagi harus kubertanya kalau bukan engkau
Who else should I ask but you?
Serasa tiada berarti bila hidup sendiri
It feels meaningless to live alone.
Walau berjuta bintang yang datang bersemi menghibur diri
Even if there are millions of stars that come to comfort me,
Namun kesepian slalu datang mencekam tiada berhenti
loneliness always creeps up and never stops.
Oh kekasih... dengarlah kata hatiku
Oh my dear... listen to my heart's words.
Rinduku hanya untukmu
My longing is only for you.
Oh kekasih... biarkan tangis berlagu
Oh my dear... allow my tears to sing.
Jangan kau simpan di hati
Don't keep them in your heart.
