1/4 Abad Lyrics Translation – Inas Hafizhah

Inas Hafizhah notes how friends drift away, until solitude feels familiar. She mentions heartbreak and betrayal, yet chooses peace over anger. One key line says, ‘I haven’t lost myself,’ showing quiet resilience through change.

Hidup seperempat abadA quarter century of life,
Perlahan kenal duniaand I’m slowly getting to know the world.
Manis pahit datang pergiSweetness and bitterness come and go,
Nyatanya harus ku hadapiand it’s a reality I’ve got to face.
Teman perlahan menghilangFriends slowly drift away,
Sendirian jadi biasauntil being alone feels normal.
Walau kadang ku ingin menyerahThough sometimes I want to throw in the towel,
Aku harus bagaimanaI’m not sure what I’m meant to do.
Pada akhirnya ku sadarIn the end, I’ve realized,
Setidaknya tak kehilangan diri sendiriat least I haven’t lost myself.
Pernah sakit hatiI’ve felt the pain of a broken heart,
Namun bangkit lagibut I’ve found the strength to rise again.
Kembali sendiriBack on my own,
Berdamai lagi lagifinding peace time and time again.
Pernah dikhianatiI’ve known the sting of betrayal,
Ingin rasanya bencimaking me want to sink into hate.
Tapi untuk apaBut what’s the point,
Bila dipikir tak ada gunanyawhen I know it’s all just futile.
Pada akhirnya ku sadarFinally, I’ve come to see,
Setidaknya tak kehilangan diri sendirithat I’ve managed to keep my soul intact.
Pernah sakit hatiHeartache has touched me before,
Namun bangkit lagibut I always find my way back up.
Kembali sendiriAlone once more,
Berdamai lagi lagimaking my peace again and again.
Pernah dikhianatiI’ve been crossed before,
Ingin rasanya bencifeeling that urge to despise it all.
Tapi untuk apaBut what’s it worth,
Bila dipikir tak ada gunanyawhen there’s no real use in it anyway.
Tapi untuk apaBut what for,
Bila dipikir tak ada gunanyasince I know there’s no point in holding on.
