Adera - Lebih Indah

LYRIC Saat kutenggelam dalam sendu Waktupun enggan untuk berlalu Ku berjanji tuk menutup pintu hatiku Entah untuk siapapun itu Semakin kulihat masa lalu Semakin hatiku tak menentu Tetapi satu sinar terangi jiwaku Saat kumelihat senyummu Dan kau hadir Merubah segalanya menjadi lebih indah Kau bawa cintaku setinggi angkasa Membuatku merasa sempurna Dan membuatku utuh tuk menjalani hidup Berdua denganmu selama-lamanya Kaulah yang terbaik untukku Kini kuingin hentikan waktu Bila kau berada di dekatku Bunga cinta bermekaran dalam jiwaku Kan kupetik satu untukmu Dan kau hadir Merubah segalanya menjadi lebih indah Kau bawa cintaku setinggi angkasa Membuatku merasa sempurna Dan membuatku utuh tuk menjalani hidup Berdua denganmu selama-lamanya Kaulah yang terbaik untukku Kaulah yang terbaik untukku Kupercayakan seluruh hatiku padamu Kasihku, satu janjiku Kaulah yang terakhir bagiku Dan kau hadir Merubah segalanya menjadi lebih indah Kau bawa cintaku setinggi angkasa Membuatku merasa sempurna Dan membuatku utuh tuk menjalani hidup Berdua denganmu selama-lamanya Kaulah yang terbaik untukku

ENGLISH TRANSLATION When I'm drowned in sadness The time went by reluctantly I promised to close my heart's door To whoever it with The more I looked back to the past The more my heart became uncertain But a light brightened my soul When I saw your smile And you're there Turning everything more lovely You took my love as high as the sky Made me feel complete And made me whole to live the life Together with you forever You're the best for me Now I want to stop the time When you are near me The love flowers has been blooming in my heart I will pick one for you And you're there Turning everything more lovely You took my love as high as the sky Made me feel complete And made me whole to live the life Together with you forever You're the best for me You're the best for me I trust my whole heart to you My love, one thing that I promise You're the last for me And you're there Turning everything more lovely You took my love as high as the sky Made me feel complete And made me whole to live the life Together with you forever You're the best for me

Noah - Separuh Aku

LYRIC Dan terjadi lagi Kisah lama yang terulang kembali Kau terluka lagi Dari cinta rumit yang kau jalani Aku ingin kau merasa Kamu mengerti aku mengerti kamu Aku ingin kau sadari Cintamu bukanlah dia Dengar laraku Suara hati ini memanggil namamu Karena separuh aku dirimu Ku ada disini Pahamilah kau tak pernah sendiri Karena aku selalu Di dekatmu saat engkau terjatuh Aku ingin kau merasa Kamu mengerti aku mengerti kamu Aku ingin kau pahami Cintamu bukanlah dia Dengar laraku Suara hati ini memanggil namamu Karena separuh aku dirimu Dengar laraku Suara hati ini memanggil namamu Karena separuh aku... Menyentuh laramu Semua luka telah menjadi lirihku Karena separuh aku dirimu

ENGLISH TRANSLATION And it's happening again The old story that's recurred again You're hurt again From the complicated love you're living in I want you to feel That you understand me and I understand you I want you to realize Your love is not him Hear my pain This heart's voice is calling you Because the other half of me is you I am here Please understand that you're never alone Because I will always be Near you when you fall I want you to feel That you understand me and I understand you I want you to realize Your love is not him Hear my pain This heart's voice is calling you Because the other half of me is you Hear my pain This heart's voice is calling you Because the other half of me... Touch your pain All of the pains have become my gentleness Because the other half of me is you

SMS-Style Text Culture

Hello! Halo! Bonjour! Hola! Olá! 你好? 안녕하세요?

This is the first time we made a real article for you. We don't want the blog be a boring site which only contains lyrics. So, we hope you'll enjoy this one. ^^

You know, I-pop isn't just about Indonesian pop music, but also pop culture that's happened here. This time I want to introduce you something interesting. It's SMS-style Text culture! Some of you might have encountered some Indonesian chat with each other, their Tweets, or even their status updates on Facebook. While you could learn Indonesian and even speak Indonesian fluently in matters of weeks, I'm sure you won't totally understand those Indonesian text. You'll find words like "dgn", "yg", "mkn", "gt" that maybe you can't even figure out how to pronounce it, or words like "ciyus" and "miapah" which you won't find those on any muggle dictionaries.

ps. If you have friends who use those kind of words that I mentioned last (ciyus/miapah), you've got my permission to "kiss" them for me or... Avada Kedavra! ;)

This kind of kiss. ;)
