The song invites listeners to confront inner struggles and find peace within themselves.
Marcel Thee crafts a story that dives into themes of self-awareness and liberation. One standout line, ‘In your vast sea, I gaze upon the face of God,’ speaks to finding divinity within. The songwriter mixes vivid metaphors, like drowning in the sea of desires, to highlight the journey toward inner light.
Neraka yang kau takutiThe hell that you fear,
Bersemi dalam hatiis blooming within your heart.
Menuntun, merayakan dirinyaIt guides and celebrates itself,
Dalam hasrat dan dengkithrough your desires and envy.
Yang haus akan lebihThose who thirst for more,
Tenggelamkanmu di laut yang kau minumkanwill drown you in the very sea you’ve been drinking.
Akuilah hidup ini deritaAcknowledge that this life is suffering,
Dan kita menang dengan melihatand we find victory through our awareness.
Kilas-kilas keindahan yang nyataFlashes of true beauty,
Menyimpan bahagia seutuhnyahold the key to complete happiness.
Dan kau menunggu tenang, engkau menunggu senang, engkau menunggu terang lagiAnd you’re waiting for peace, you’re waiting for joy, you’re waiting for the light again.
Semua yang kau dambakanIt’s everything you’ve ever longed for.
Lebih telah kau milikiYou already possess more than enough,
Hadirlah disini bersamakuso just be present here with me.
Bagaimana kau tadah gunungHow can you try to hold a mountain,
Di tanganmu yang mulia?within your noble hands?
Di laut mu, ku tatap wajah TuhanIn your vast sea, I gaze upon the face of God.
Akuilah hidup ini deritaAcknowledge that this life is suffering,
Dan kita menang dengan melepasand we find victory by letting go.
Kilas-kilas keinginan yang tegarRelease the glimpses of your stubborn desires.
Merangkulmu ke lapar abadiThey’ll pull you into an eternal hunger.
Kau kan beranjak tenangYou’ll begin to find your peace,
Kau kan beranjak senangyou’ll begin to find your joy,
Kau kan beranjak terang lagiyou’ll begin to find the light again.
