fábula’s Bohongi Hati Indonesian Lyrics English Translation
The performer asks, ‘Where can I find that version of you, the one who used to love me and acknowledge I exist?’ This line captures the essence of searching for a lost connection. Mahalini’s words reflect the struggle of trying to let go while still holding onto hope.
Aku tersiksa melihat semuanya berubahIt’s pure agony to see everything change.
Mengapa kau tak mau tahuWhy don’t you want to know,
Bagaimana hati ini tanpamu?how this heart of mine feels without you?
Cintamu?Without your love?
Oh, di mana aku bisa temui dirimuOh, where can I find that version of you,
Yang dulu cinta dan anggap aku ada?the one who used to love me and acknowledge I exist?
Jika kau minta aku menjauhIf you ask me to step away,
Hilang dari seluruh memori indahmuto vanish from all your beautiful memories,
‘Kan kulakukan semuaI’ll do it all for you.
Walau tak mungkin sanggup bohongi hatikuEven though I’ll never be able to lie to my own heart.
Ha-ah-ah-ahHa-ah-ah-ah,
Ha-ah-ha-wo-ho-ohHa-ah-ha-wo-ho-oh.
Di mana aku bisa temui dirimu, ha-ahWhere can I find that version of you, ha-ah,
Yang dulu cinta dan anggap aku ada? (Yang dulu cinta dan anggap aku ada)the one who used to love me and acknowledge I exist?
Ho-ohHo-oh.
Jika kau meminta aku menjauhIf you ask me to step away,
Hilang dari seluruh memori indahmuto vanish from all your beautiful memories,
‘Kan kulakukan semuaI’ll do it all for you.
Walau tak mungkin sanggup bohongi hatikuEven though I’ll never be able to lie to my own heart.
Saat ku rindu, kucoba tak rinduWhen I miss you, I try to suppress it,
Demi bahagiamu yang tak membutuhkankufor the sake of your happiness that doesn’t include me.
Entah sampai di manaI’ve no idea how long,
Sanggup ku ‘kan bertahan ‘tuk bisa tanpamuI’ll be able to endure life without you.
Ya, tak mungkin kau menemukan yang sama lagiYeah, you’ll never find someone like me again,
Tulus hati seperti yang aku milikiwith a heart as sincere as the one I have.
Oh-wo-ohOh-wo-oh.
Jika kau minta aku menjauhIf you ask me to step away,
Hilang dari seluruh memori indahmuto vanish from all your beautiful memories,
‘Kan kulakukan semuaI’ll do it all for you.
Walau tak mungkin sanggup bohongi hatikuEven though I’ll never be able to lie to my own heart.
Ho-wo-hoHo-wo-ho.
Saat ku rindu, kucoba tak rinduWhen I miss you, I try to suppress it,
Demi bahagiamu yang tak lagi butuhkanku, ohfor the sake of your happiness that no longer needs me.
Entah sampai di manaI’ve no idea how long,
Aku sanggup bertahan ‘tuk bisa tanpamuI’ll be able to endure life without you.
