Antara Anyer Dan Jakarta --- Sheila Majid

 

Antara Anyer Dan Jakarta

By

Sheila Majid

[English Version] [4th Dec. 2019] 

Between Ankara And Jakarta

Verse 1.

Total strangers on a flight were we,

It had been fated, you seated next to me;

No time for movies or other things had we

Because all that mattered was you and me.

Verse 2.

We were like magnets drawn to each other,

Two ships colliding, missing a rudder;

Just like two lovers in their own world,

This young boy and this young girl.

 Chorus:

Between Ankara and Jakarta

We had fallen in love,

Between Ankara and Jakarta;

Who would have thought a love could blossom 

Up high above

Between Ankara and Jakarta.

Verse 3.

Two complete strangers on a flight were we

Where destiny brought us together;

Nothing else mattered other than you and me

On a flight that seemed to last forever.

[repeat chorus followed by instrumental followed 

by chorus once more]

[finally]

Jakarta,

We madly fell in love,

We fell in love between Ankara and Jakarta.

Bunga-Bunga Cinta - Misha Omar

Bunga-Bunga Cinta

By

Misha Omar

[English Version] [4th Dec. 2019 - 9th July 2020]

Say You'll Be Coming Back To Me

It was like in a fairy tale:

We were so happy and in love

Without any care-ares in the world.

It was like time had stopped for us:
We were like eagles in the sky,
Flying on the wi-ings o-of love.

Sub-chorus:

And then suddenly it all fell apart:

Shattered were my dreams and so was my heart;
Said you knew not for how long you'd be gone when you-ou said good-bye.

Chorus:

Say you'll be coming back to me

And that you're longing for the way things used to be
When we were crazily in love;
Tell me no longer need I cry
And that my heart will spread its wings again and fly
Just as it used to not so long ago when life was good
And skies above were blue
Each day for me and you.

It was like in a movie script

Written especially for us

With a happy ending night or  day.

It was like we were in a dream

In which reality's a blur

Bu-ut in the most fantastic way.

[repeat sub-chorus 1 followed by chorus]

Sub-Chorus 2:

Something happened only you had known about
Or you would not have said good-bye;
I for one shall never know what it was,
Until the day I die,
Guess I'll be always asking why.

[repeat chorus]

[English Version] [25 May - 7th July 2020]

One In A Million Were You

Of all the million sta-ars in the sky
What sta-ands out was only one;
Of all the million na-ames they were called
What sta-ands out was only one.

Once in a while a special person was born

Who stands apart from all the rest,

So special was he-e-e-e.

Of all the million flowers in the field

What sta-ands out was only one;

Of all the million na-ames they were called

What sta-ands out was only one.

Once in a while somebody co-omes along,

Endears the wor-orld to himself,
So special was he.

Chorus:

One in a million were you,

No one could do what you do,

No one could be who you a-a-are;

Nobody else was like you,

Nobody else that we knew;

Nobody else could go as far;

You are o-our pri-i-ide and joy,

Every mother's dar-li-ing boy,

One-one-one-one  in a million were you.

[repeat chorus]

Selamat Jalan Kekasih - Rita Effendy

Selamat Jalan Kekasih

By

Rita Effendy

[English Version] [28th June 2020]

Time To Say Good-Bye

Parting ways with you

Shows me how truly blessed was I

To love you and in turn be loved by you:

A love I'll cherish till the day I die.

Chorus 1:

Guess it's time to say good-bye,
Turn around so you won't see me cry;

Knowing I am losing you forever breaks my heart in two.

No big deal for you,

Breaking us up till we're apart,

But there was nothing I could really do

When someone else comes in and steals your heart.

Chorus 2:

Guess it's time to say good-bye,

Turn around so you won't see me cry;

Knowing I am losing you forever breaks my heart in two.

I will always love-ove you

Even though you've found somebody new;

What's embedded deep i-in the heart stays forever in the heart.

[repeat chorus 2 and end]

[English Version] [23rd - 27th June 2020] 

A Heart With A Mind Of Its Own

I have always been in love with you

For-or as long as I ca-an remem-em-be-er, my love;

You have always been the only one

I-I have cared about more-ore than anyone, my love.

Chorus 1:

I'll always be in love with you,

Don't ask me how I know it's true;

I-it's how I feel inside,

Can lie but can't hide,

A heart with a mind of its own de-e-cides.

Never has there-ere been anyone

Other than you, my love, I wanted holding me in his arms;

Nev-e-ver i-in my wildest dreams

Have I ima-a-gined somebody other than you in my arms.

  

Chorus 2:

I'll always be in love with you,
Don't ask me how I know it's true;

I-it's how I feel inside,

Can lie but can't hide,

A heart with a mind of its own;

I'll always be in love with you,
Don't ask me how I know it's true;

I-it's how I feel inside,

Can lie but can't hide,

A heart with a mind of its own de-ci-ides.

Bridge:

Guess I will nev-ev-ver know
Why a heart once it's made up its mind

Will stick to where it wants to go.

[repeat chorus 2 twice and end]

Di Persampingan Dilema

By

Nora

[English Version] [14th June 2020]

Always One More Teardrop

Leave the past behind and begin-in life anew

Or hold on to all the memories-ies:

What should I do?

Turn around and walk to-o-wards a life that's new

Or remain-ain faithful to a pa-ast life lived with you?

Some might call it a di-le-em-ma:

Not-ot knowing what to do.
Oh oh oh oh oh.

Leave the past behind and move on, yes, that I know

But a part of you a part of me-e still won't let go.

Close the door and walk a-away and start anew-ew

Or forever be imprisoned in a past life with you?

Some might call it a di-le-em-ma:

Not-ot knowing what to do.

Oh oh oh oh oh.

What should I do?

Sub-Chorus:

The storm passes and leaves a rainbow

And skies are blue again

But yesterdays are-aren't easy to forget-et.

Chorus:

Seems a long, long time ago

The angels called your name and said

That it was time for you to say goodbye;

I have cried enough to fill an ocean but for you, my love,

There's always one more teardrop left to cry.

Leave the past behind and move on, yes, that I know

But a part of you a part of me-e still won't let go.

Close the door and walk a-away and start anew-ew

Or forever be imprisoned in a past life with you?

Some might call it a di-le-em-ma:

Not-ot knowing what to do.

Oh oh oh oh oh.

What should I do?

Sub-Chorus:

The storm passes and leaves a rainbow

And skies are blue again

But yesterdays are-aren't easy to forget-et.

Chorus:

Seems a long, long time ago

The angels called your name and said

That it was time for you to say goodbye;

I have cried enough to fill an ocean but for you, my love,

There's always one more teardrop left to cry.

Carefree

[English Version] [ 26th Jan. 2020]

With All My Heart And Soul

Khadijah,

I guess you'll never ever really know

How much I love you;

Khadijah, 

I guess you'll never ever really know

Just how much I care.

Chorus:

Sometimes it's hard for me to say what's on my mind

Or maybe I'll just set myself a goal

To say I love you as you yourself will find

With all my heart and soul.

Khadijah,

I guess you'll never ever really know

How much I miss you;

Khadijah,

I guess you'll never ever really know

What I feel inside.

[repeat chorus]
