Manot Lyrics Translation – Gildcoustic
The lyricist mentions a love that stays strong even when it’s not returned. One line stands out: ‘I swear I still love you, but your love isn’t meant for me.’ The words talk about late-night dreams and the ache of trying to move on. Gildcoustic sings each verse like a personal letter that never gets sent.
Aku sayang koeI love you,
Tapi koe sayang dek ebut you love someone else.
Loro atiku mbok sia sia neIt breaks my heart that you wasted my love.
Kadung nibo nangiI’ve already fallen and struggled to get back up,
Merjuangke kowe kuifighting for you,
Nanging nyatane kowe golek penggantibut the truth is, you’re looking for a replacement.
Getun rasaneI feel so full of regret;
Wes tak upayakkeI’ve tried everything I could.
Ginio kok koyo ngene akhireWhy did it have to end like this?
Sedih mbok tinggal lungoI’m sad that you left me.
Karepku yo wes rapopoI tried to convince myself I’m fine,
Ning nyatane saben wengibut the truth is, every night,
Aku sek kerep ngimpeniI still often dream of you.
Iki lagu teko atiThis song comes straight from my heart;
Dudu mung cerito ngapusiit isn’t just a made-up story.
Jujur tresnoku seh gediHonestly, my love for you is still so deep.
