Berdarah Lyrics Translation – Haqiem Rusli
Haqiem asks again and again, ‘What is it that you want?’ showing his growing frustration. He mentions repeated rejections—meetups, meals, talks—all turned down. The phrase ‘it’s a bleeding night’ describes how pain builds when care isn’t returned.
Terbiasa ahI’m used to it now, ah.
Melihat senyumanmu oh-oh ohJust seeing your smile, oh.
Terkadang-kadang terfikir adakah aku sepadan dengan youSometimes I wonder if I’m even a match for you.
YeahYeah.
Dua mingguTwo weeks.
No-ohNo.
Semakin mengenalimu oh-ohGetting to know you more and more, oh.
Terkadang-kadang terfikir layakkah aku berteman denganmuSometimes I wonder if I’m even worthy of being your friend.
Na-na-na-naNa-na-na-na.
Ajak jumpaI ask to meet up,
Tak nakbut you don’t want to.
Ajak makanI ask to go eat,
Tak nakbut you don’t want to.
Ajak lepakI ask to hang out,
Tak nakbut you don’t want to.
Ajak bincangI ask to talk things over,
Tak nakbut you don’t want to.
Apa yang engkau nakWhat is it that you want?
Apa yang engkau nakWhat is it that you want?
Apa yang engkau nakWhat is it that you want?
Malam iniTonight,
Malam yang berdarahit’s a bleeding night,
Kerana terlukabecause I’m so hurt.
Tiada peluang untuk aku buktikanThere’s no chance for me to prove myself.
Tak termampuI can’t handle it,
Aku menunggumuwaiting for you.
Semakin berbuluI’m getting more ‘annoyed’ and fed up.
Adakah ku layak ataupun kau yang memilihAm I worthy, or are you just being picky?
