The lyricist describes life as a fleeting dream where joy and sorrow alternate in a blink. She writes, ‘In the blink of an eye, joy and sorrow trade places,’ emphasizing the unpredictability of destiny. The song advises strength and prayer in the face of life’s natural cycles.
Dalam lamunan bahagiaLost in a happy daydream,
Bicara seia sekatawe spoke with one heart and mind.
Bergandingan tabah redahi cabaranHand in hand, we bravely faced our challenges,
Yang sukar menjadi mudahand the difficult things became easy.
Selagi berkasih sayangAs long as we share our love,
Dalam reda ditemui ketenanganwe’ll find peace in accepting what comes.
Dengan kaca mata cintaLooking through the lens of love,
Semua kelihatan indaheverything appears so beautiful.
Bertitian doa tersusun harapanCrossing a bridge of prayers, I’ve built my hopes.
Moga tak tercalar ikrar setiamu, sayangI hope your vow of loyalty is never scarred, my love.
Tabah di sepanjang perjalananStay strong throughout the entire journey;
Pesananku kepada diri sendirithis is the message I’ve for myself.
Bahawa hidup ini seumpama mimpiThat this life is just like a dream;
Sekelipan mata suka dan duka bergantiin the blink of an eye, joy and sorrow trade places.
Takdir dan suratan tak upaya dihindariDestiny and fate can’t be avoided,
Apa yang pasti terjadifor whatever’s meant to be will happen.
Bukan kemahuan diriIt’s not by our own desire.
Siapa pun jua yang mendahuluiNo matter who’s the one to leave first,
Titipkanlah doa setulus cintamu, kasihoffer a prayer with your sincerest love, my dear.
Usah terlalu lama bersedihDon’t stay in sadness for too long.
Bersua berpisah, sayangMeeting and parting, my love,
Lumrah kehidupanare just the natural cycle of life.
Doaku bertemu lagiI pray that we’ll meet again,
Dengan izin Ilahiwith the ‘Divine’ God’s permission.
