RAN LYRIC

DEKAT DI HATI

Close to the heart

Dering telfonku membuatku tersenyum di pagi hari

The ringing of my phone make me smile in the morning

Kau bercerita semalam kita bertemu dalam mimpi

You tell me that we met in the dream last night

Entah mengapa aku merasakan hadirmu disini

I don’t know why but I fell your presence here

Tawa candamu menghibur saat ku sendiri

Your laugh and joke cheer me when I am alone

Aku disini dan kau disana

I am here and you are there

Hanya berjumpa bias suara

We only meet on by voice

Namunku slalu menunggu saat kita akan berjumpa

But I always waiting the time that we will meet

Oh oh oh

Meski kau kini jauh disana

Eventhough you are far away

Kita memandang langit yang sama

We see the same sky

Jauh dimata namun dekat di hati

Far from the eyes but close to the heart

Jarak dan waktu takkan berarti

The distances and the times won’t mean anything

Karna kau akan selalu dihati

‘Cause you will always in my heart

Bagai detak jantung yang ku bawa

As the heartbeats which I will bring

Kemanapun ku pergi

Wherever I go

Oh oh oh

Meski kau kini jauh disana

Eventhough you are far away now

Kita memandang langit yang sama

We see the same sky

Jauh dimata namun dekat di hati

Far from the eyes but close to the heart

dekat di hati

close to the heart 

dekat di hati 

close to the heart 

dekat di hati

close to the heart

  So, this is about a long distance relationship. If you hear the song, the song is really easy to be heard. It has simple lyrics, but it is enough to say everything. That even if we should far away toward each other, my heart still on you. Nothing changed, I still love you, and we still see the same sky. I still can fell your presence close to me. Because the distance doesn’t become a wall. Since, there are many ways to ‘touch’ you.  This distance will not separate us a part. But, in contrary it will become something that challenge our love and make our love stronger.

Well, what do you think about this song? Very romantic, isn’t it? Indeed! For the first time I hear this song, I was touched. Since, I also in a long distance relationship. I directly sent a voice message to my bf singing this song, and he felt the same way, as I did.

So, this is the post for today. You can see the video clip here (RAN - Dekat Di Hati Video ). For you who are learning Bahasa Indonesia, you can use this song. You can keep trying to practice pronouncing the words by singing this song. Good Luck and Have a nice day everyone!
