Description
A house that doesn't compete with skyscrapers, but instead smells of jasmine and slow-cooked soup. From the outside, it seems like nothing special, but once you enter, the space seems to know where you'll be most comfortable breathing today. There's no arguing here about which sofa is trendier, because what matters more is at which table everyone will still meet, even if the day was long and their heads are full of other people's voices. Warmth isn't turned on with a switch; it's spread throughout the room with conversation, laughter, and the aroma of coffee. And if life ever throws you far away - to a place where everything is different - you can temporarily call any place home where those who love you are nearby. The rest are layout details.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Kita usahakan rumah itu.
Dari depan akan tampak sederhana.
Tapi kebunnya luas, tanamannya mewah megah.
Kita usahakan rumah itu.
Dari depan akan tampak sederhana.
Tapi dibuat kuat, dirancang muat lega.
Urusan perabotan dan wangi-wangian kuserahkan pada seleramu yang lebih maju.
Tapi tata ruang aku ikut pertimbangkan.
Karena kalau nanti kita punya kesibukan malam, tetap kumpul di meja panjang.
Ruang makan kita berbincang tentang hari yang panjang.
Kita usahakan rumah itu.
Dari depan akan tampak sederhana.
Tapi penerangannya diracik begitu romantis.
Urusan perabotan dan wangi-wangian kuserahkan pada seleramu yang lebih maju.
Tapi tata ruang aku ikut pertimbangkan.
Karena kalau nanti kita punya kesibukan malam, tetap kumpul di meja panjang.
Ruang makan kita berbincang tentang hari yang panjang.
Boleh kamu keliling dunia dan temukan banyak tempat-tempat 'tuk singgah sementara.
Kamu boleh namai itu rumah selama ada mereka yang kamu cinta di dalamnya.
Kita usahakan rumah itu.
English translation
We'll work on the house.
From the front it will look simple.
But the garden is large, the plants are luxurious and magnificent.
We'll work on the house.
From the front it will look simple.
But it is made strong, designed to fit comfortably.
I leave matters of furnishings and perfume to your more sophisticated tastes.
But I also consider the layout of the room.
Because if we have a busy evening, we'll still gather at the long table.
Our dining room chats about the long day.
We'll work on the house.
From the front it will look simple.
But the lighting is designed to be so romantic.
I leave matters of furnishings and perfume to your more sophisticated tastes.
But I also consider the layout of the room.
Because if we have a busy evening, we'll still gather at the long table.
Our dining room chats about the long day.
You can travel around the world and find many places to stop temporarily.
You can call it a house as long as there are those you love in it.
We'll work on the house.
