For our first posting, we have selected a song by the Malaysian Rock Group "Wings" entitled "Intanku Kesepian". The translations given below are literal, hence, some parts of it would not make much sense--in fact, it would make much nonsense! ;P We will provide the explanation to these lyrics in the next post.
Intanku Kesepian Hanya padamu Terbuka hatiku Menanti hadirnya Kasihmu sayang Cinta yang murni Sehangat mentari Membara hanyalah Untukmu Belum sempat aku Memberi padamu Engkau yang kudamba Hilang tiba-tiba Tiada lagi Irama cintamu sayang Tiada lagi Haruman kasihmu intan Tinggallah aku Menyulam cinta yang sirna Di dalam senyum Yang berbayang duka Ku kesepian Akan ku tunggu Takdir menentukan Engkau dan aku Kan bersua lagi Memadu cinta Selembut bayu senja Mengukir rindu Di daunan hari kasih Menghilang resah Lewat pertemuan kita Biarpun harus Ku telan keperitan Kerana engkau Intan yang ku sayang Akan ku terus Menunggumu Intan | My Precious (is) Lonely Only to you (Is) open my heart Waiting (for) the presence (Of) your love, (my) love A love that's pure As hot as the sun Smoldering only For you Before am able I To give to you You that I desire Disappeared suddenly (There is) no more Rhythm of your love, (my) love (There is) no more Scent of your love, precious Leaving me to Embroider the lost love In a smile With a shadow of sadness I (am) lonely Will I wait Destiny to determine You and me Will meet again Be in love As soft as the evening breeze Carving the longing On the leaves of the days of love Disappears restlessness After our encounter Eventhough have to I swallow the pain Because you (Are) the precious that I love Will I continue Waiting for you, precious |
