Negoro Angin Meaning & Lyrics (Denny Caknan)
Denny Caknan sings from the perspective of someone traveling vast distances for a love that has faded. The poet describes how everything changed after the separation, admitting that long-distance romance is ‘not as beautiful as the tulips blooming in the park’ (Mboten seindah kembang tulip ning taman). He confesses he still misses his former partner, trapped in memories of their past warmth while acknowledging the painful reality that they have become strangers.
Tak tempuh sewelas ewu kilometer nyusul awakmuI’ve traveled eleven thousand kilometers to find you,
Sing nate janji mulih ning akuthe one who once promised to return to me,
Sakwise ngrampungke urusanmuafter finishing your affairs.
Tak tekad-tekadke, masiya ora tau ngalami adhemI gathered my courage, even though I’ve never known the freezing cold.
Mines siji, mosok ra ditemoni?It’s minus one degree, how could you refuse to see me?
Nekadku mung pengin nilikiMy desperate journey was just to see how you were doing.
Kepisah benua Negara AnginSeparated by continents in this ‘Country of Wind,’
Nggayuh tresnamu rasane wis ra mungkinreaching your love feels impossible now.
Wis beda, semenjak jarak tekaEverything has changed since the distance grew between us.
Tiyang sing mbiyen tak kenal dadi wong liyaThe person I once knew has become a complete stranger.
Ternyata LDR pait tenanIt turns out that a long-distance relationship is truly bitter,
Mboten seindah kembang tulip ning tamannot as beautiful as the tulips blooming in the park.
Goblogku isih sayang awakmuI’m such a fool for still loving you.
Ngertia, ra sudi ngancani jaman susahmuIf I had known, I wouldn’t have supported you through your hardest times.
Isih kebayang-bayangI still see your face in my mind,
Isih dadi kenanganstill trapped in these fading memories.
Bekas ambu rangkulanmuThe trace of your embrace,
Wangine isih ning atikuits warmth still lingers in my heart.
Isih tak kangeniI still miss you deeply.
Isih tak tunggoniI am still waiting for you.
Isih terus tak tangisi, hu-ohI continue to cry for you, oh.
(Isih tak kangeni)(I still miss you deeply.)
(Isih tak tunggoni)(I am still waiting for you.)
(Isih tak tangisi)(I continue to cry for you.)
(Kenangan sing wingi)(The memories of yesterday)
(Isih tak kangeni) isih tak kangeni(I still miss you deeply,) I still miss you deeply.
(Isih tak tunggoni) isih tak tangisi(I am still waiting for you,) I continue to cry for you.
(Isih tak tangisi)(I continue to cry for you.)
Kenangan sing wingiThe memories of yesterday
Mabur dhuwur melayang-layangflutter high and drift away,
Terbang di atas awansoaring above the clouds.
Ingin melepas rindu, SayangI just wanted to ease this yearning, my dear.
Kepisah benua Negara AnginSeparated by continents in this ‘Country of Wind,’
Nggayuh tresnamu rasane wis ra mungkinreaching your love feels impossible now.
Wis beda, semenjak jarak tekaEverything has changed since the distance grew between us.
Tiyang sing mbiyen tak kenal dadi wong liyaThe person I once knew has become a complete stranger.
Ternyata LDR pait tenanIt turns out that a long-distance relationship is truly bitter,
Mboten seindah kembang tulip ning tamannot as beautiful as the tulips blooming in the park.
Goblogku isih sayang awakmuI’m such a fool for still loving you.
Ngertia, ra sudi ngancani jaman susahmuIf I had known, I wouldn’t have supported you through your hardest times.
Goblogku isih sayang awakmuI’m such a fool for still loving you.
