Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Selamat Tinggal Malam

Selamat Tinggal Malam

Selamat tinggal malam yang hitam
Antar aku pergi ikhlaskan
Lama memang kita berteman
Tempuh jalan yang kelam

Terima kasih, malam yang hitam
Banyak kau ajarkan padaku
Segala dosa, segala luka
Segala cela, segala-galanya

Pernah kau kecewa padaku
Sebab 'ku tak percaya padamu
Bahwa hari ada malam hari ada siang
Hari ada pagi hari adalah hari

Engkau hanya diam dengarkan
Bahwa 'ku yang keras cemooh
Dengar ucapmu, dengar katamu
Dengar khotbahmu, dengar bohongmu

Oh malam, maafkan aku
Yang lupa saat itu
Oh malam, maafkan aku
Tak percaya padamu
Hari ada pagi
Hari ada malam
Hari ada siang
Dalam hari selalu ada kemungkinan

Oh malam, maafkan aku
Yang lupa saat itu
Oh malam, maafkan aku
Benar semua katamu
Hari ada pagi
Hari ada malam
Hari ada siang
Dalam hari selalu ada kemungkinan
Dalam hari pasti ada kesempatan

Farewell, Night

Farewell, oh dark night,
Set me free, let me go.
Long have we been companions,
Treading through the shadowy road.

Thank you, oh dark night,
Many lessons you've taught me.
Sins and wounds, flaws and all,
In silence, you've heard my plea.

Once, you grew weary of me,
For I doubted your words so free.
That day follows night, and the sun rises,
That morning comes after the darkest of skies.

You listened, though I was deaf,
To my scorn and my disbelief.
Your sermons, your promises, your lies,
I heard them all with jaded eyes.

Oh night, forgive me now,
For the fool that I was then.
Oh night, forgive me now,
For not believing in your plan.
Day follows night,
Night follows day,
Day follows dawn,
And every day holds a new dawn.

Oh night, forgive me now,
For the fool that I was then.
Oh night, forgive me now,
For doubting every word you said.
Day follows night,
Night follows day,
Day follows dawn,
And every day holds a new dawn.
And every day holds a chance to start again.
