Denting Meaning & Lyrics (Petra Sihombing)
The songwriter mentions the ticking of a bedroom wall clock and drizzling rain. ‘The drizzling rain invites my lover in tonight,’ Sihombing sings, describing a longing for a partner’s presence. The lyrics mix loneliness with the hope of being reunited.
Denting yang berbunyi dari dinding kamarkuThe ticking sound coming from my bedroom wall,
Sadarkan diriku dari lamunan panjangWakes me from a long daydream.
Tak terasa malam kini semakin larutI didn’t realize the night’s getting so late,
Ku masih terjagaAnd I’m still wide awake.
Sayang kau di mana aku ingin bersamaDarling, where are you? I want us to be together.
Aku butuh semua untuk tepiskan rinduI need everything to push this longing away.
Mungkinkah kau di sana merasa yang samaIs it possible you’re there feeling the same,
Seperti dinginku di malam iniAs the chill I’m feeling tonight?
Rintik gerimis mengundang kekasih di malam iniThe drizzling rain invites my lover in tonight.
Kita menari dalam rindu yang indahWe dance within a beautiful longing.
Sepi kurasa hatiku saat ini oh sayangkuMy heart feels so lonely right now, oh my darling.
Jika kau di sini aku tenangIf you were here, I’d be at peace.
Sayang kau di mana aku ingin bersamaDarling, where are you? I want us to be together.
Aku butuh semua untuk tepiskan rinduI need everything to push this longing away.
Mungkinkah kau di sana merasa yang samaIs it possible you’re there feeling the same,
Seperti dinginku di malam iniAs the chill I’m feeling tonight?
Rintik gerimis mengundang kekasih di malam iniThe drizzling rain invites my lover in tonight.
Kita menari dalam rindu yang indahWe dance within a beautiful longing.
Sepi kurasa hatiku saat ini oh sayangkuMy heart feels so lonely right now, oh my darling.
Jika kau di sini aku tenangIf you were here, I’d be at peace.
