Description
This track is like a cold evening when there's a blizzard outside and you're trying to find the words to fix what's been lost. A slight bitterness and lingering melancholy fall on your heart like snowflakes, slowly settling but not letting themselves melt. An inner dialogue with a loved one who has become a stranger, and a quiet plea for forgiveness, even if you don't understand exactly what you did wrong. Words seem too weak to bring back the warmth, but there is hope. You still believe that the heart that was once close to you will open up. All this pain is intertwined with patience - “I'll wait anyway.”
Lyrics and translation
Original
Kehangatan mentari ku rasakan
Tak sehangat api perbalahan
Ku ketuk pintu hati
Senyap dan sunyi
Tiada jawapan yang ku perolehi
Dinginnya malam itu bagai salju
Tidak sedingin perasaanmu
Kau sengaja membina dinding pemisah
Di antara kita tak lagi bersemuka
Kekasih ku ku rasakan perlu
Menitip surat buat tatapan mu
Sekali ini aku rela merendah diri beralah
Agar perhubungan terjalin semula
Kekasih ku tak mungkin ku tahu
Apa tersirat dihati kecil mu
Andainya aku yang bersalah
Maafkan saja
Kemaafan dendam yang terindah
Kehangatan mentari dingin salji
Bertukar ganti hari ke hari
Aku masih di sini
Sabar menanti
Terbuka kembali hatimu yang terkunci
Kekasihku ku rasakan perlu
Menitip surat buat tatapan mu
Sekali ini aku rela merendah diri beralah
Agar perhubungan terjalin semula
Kekasih ku tak mungkin ku tahu
Apa tersirat dihati kecil mu
Andainya aku yang bersalah
Maafkan saja
Kemaafan kemaafan dendam yang terindah
English translation
The sun's warmth I feel
Not as warm as the fire of dispute
I knock on the door of your heart
Silent and quiet
No answer do I receive
The coldness of that night is like snow
Not as cold as your feelings
You deliberately built a dividing wall
Between us, no longer facing each other
My love, I feel the need
To send a letter for you to see
This time, I'm willing to humble myself, to yield
So that our relationship can be reconnected
My love, I can never know
What's hidden in your little heart
If I am the one at fault
Just forgive me
Forgiveness is the most beautiful revenge
The sun's warmth, the snow's cold
Exchanging day by day
I am still here
Patiently waiting
For your locked heart to open again
My love, I feel the need
To send a letter for you to see
This time, I'm willing to humble myself, to yield
So that our relationship can be reconnected
My love, I can never know
What's hidden in your little heart
If I am the one at fault
Just forgive me
Forgiveness, forgiveness, the most beautiful revenge
