Lyrics and translation Amuk - Seakan Menguji

Seakan Menguji

Betapa getirnya rindu yang kau kikis
Tak terhakis di pesisir hati
Walaupun hujan menimpa Sahara
Tak mungkin hilang panas di bumi

Dahagalah musafir mengejar realiti duniawi
Kiasnya pujangga, hamparan penuh suci niatnya

Getar di jari-jemari kau tahan jua
Menggenggam bara hingga menjadi abu
Luka dan pedih amatlah bisa berbisa
Hanya kesabaran, penawar sejati

Pengorbanan adalah satu kemestiannya dalam hidup
Walaupun kau, diriku, seribu keresahan di mimpi

Cinta bagaikan bebayang
Makin diusir, semakin hampir
Apa yang kita impikan
Tak semua menjadi
Datangnya seakan menguji

It Seems Like A Test

How bitter is the longing you erase,
Not fading away on the shore of my heart.
Even if rain falls on the Sahara,
The heat on earth cannot disappear.

The thirsty traveler chases the worldly reality,
The poet's allegory, a pure intention in its expanse.

The tremor in your fingers you also hold tight,
Gripping the embers until they turn to ash.
The wound and pain, so venomous.
Only patience, the true remedy.

Sacrifice is a necessity in life,
Though you, myself, a thousand anxieties in dreams.

Love is like a shadow,
The more you chase it away, the closer it comes.
What we dream of,
Not everything becomes,
Its coming seems like a test.
