Di tengah perkara desis terdengarIn the middle of this mess, a hiss can be heard,
Mengoyak rapuhnya paradigmatearing through the fragility of our paradigms.

Di balik lindungan tirai hitamBehind the shelter of a black curtain,

Waktu pun tak kuasa pulihkan lukaeven time doesn’t have the power to heal the wound.
ChorusChorus.
Hilang, semua distorsi pendustaThey’re gone, all the distortions of the liars.
Hilang, ombak arogansi semataThey’re gone, the waves of pure arrogance.
Hilang, kelabu hitam halau pandanganThey’re gone, the dark shadows that cloud our sight.
Rindu, hangatnya senyum yang menyapaI long for the warmth of a welcoming smile.

Verse 3Verse 3.
Mendesak utas tali yang terikatIt’s straining the threads that bind us,

Membungkam liarnya labirin kataIt silences the wild maze of our words,
Menerjang masuk tanpa batasand crashes inside without any limits.

Hadapi derai kencangfacing the fierce, lashing rain,
Arus kepalsuan yang menggilaand the currents of falsehood that have gone mad.
