Winston Francis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Menjadi hamba yang Esa
Walau digoda indah dunia
Mengapa kini hanya tinggal kata-kata
Tenggelam dalam lumpur dosa
Kembalilah
Bernafaslah dalam hela syahadah
Jua tak kan retak hamparan bumi yang enak dipijak
Namun cukup sekali seru pemilikNya
Seluruh semesta menyerah
Sesungguhnya di akhir yang nyata
Setiap nyawa kan kembali padaNya
Dihimpun dihitung semua
Semat utuh apa yang diikrar
Tika jasad dihembuskan nyawa
Hanya satu yang disembah Allah
Subahanallah. Alhamdulillah. Allah. Allahuakhbar.
Subahanallah. Alhamdulillah. Allah. Allahuakhbar.
Oh Ya Allah Tunduk dan pejamkanlah mata
Rasakan getaran kalimahNya
Jadi nadi dalam diri suci
Semat utuh apa yang diikrar
Tika jasad dihembuskan nyawa
Hanya satu yang disembah Allah
Subahanallah. Alhamdulillah. Allah. Allahuakhbar.
Subahanallah. Alhamdulillah. Allah. Allahuakhbar.
oh ya allah Ke mana hilang janji dan sumpah setia
Menjadi hamba yang Esa
Walau digoda indah dunia
Mengapa kini hanya tinggal kata-kata
Tenggelam dalam lumpur dosa
Kembalilah...
Bernafaslah dalam hela syahadah
Tidak kan jatuh langit menimpa kepala
Jua tak kan retak hamparan bumi yang enak dipijak
Namun cukup sekali seru pemilikNya
Seluruh semesta menyerah
(End)
The lyrics of Winston Francis’s song “Secrets” talk about the struggles of staying true to one’s promises and loyalty in a world that can be very enticing. The song starts by asking about missing the promises made to God and how one can be a slave of God. They wonder why they have only their words left after the temptation of the world drowned them in sin. But the singer advises the listener to come back and breathe in the acceptance of their faith, which helps them to feel complete.
In the second paragraph, the singer assures that even if one has to face tough times in their life, it does not mean they are failures. Instead, he says that when one calls upon God, the entire cosmos surrenders. In the end, the lyrics announce the inevitability of all souls returning to God, and the importance of adhering to the one God.
Overall, the song is an ode to spiritual introspection and loyalty towards faith. It highlights that despite the alluring nature of the world, the only way to feel complete is by staying true to oneself's beliefs and sticking to one’s promises.
