Paroles et traduction Ning Baizura - Penjara Kasih

Penjara Kasih

Kerana menjaga hati
Rela ku berdiam diri
Menelan segala apa kau idamkan
Asal jangan menuduh, ku tak mengenang jasa

Gerak langkah dan tindakan
Bukannya datang dariku
Segala dikawal malah diawasi
Jikalau ku membantah pasti dosa bertambah

Bagai ikan dalam kaca yang berharga
Berenang-renang tak berkawan
Aku perhiasan mata
Pada yang sudi memandang
Jari-jemari yang tidak membelai
Terhalang oleh kaca berharga

Dalam hati bergelora
Tuhan saja mendengarnya
Semakin disimpan makin menyiksakan
Jikalau diluahkan kelak putus ikatan

Bagai ikan dalam kaca yang berharga
Berenang-renang tak berkawan
Aku perhiasan mata
Pada yang sudi memandang
Jari-jemari yang tidak membelai
Terhalang oleh kaca berharga

Bagai ikan dalam kaca yang berharga
Berenang-renang tak berkawan
Aku perhiasan mata
Pada yang sudi memandang
Jari-jemari yang tidak membelai
Terhalang oleh kaca berharga, hu-hu

Prison of Love

I keep silent for your peace of mind,
Swallowing whatever you desire,
As long as you don't accuse me of being ungrateful.
I hope you do so, and spare me your pity.

My every move is scrutinized,
As if I were a puppet on strings.
Every word I utter is monitored,
And any defiance on my part would only worsen things.

I'm like a precious fish in a glass tank,
Swimming alone, with no companion.
I'm a beautiful object to behold,
But only for those who care to look.
Your fingers, which should caress me,
Are forever barred by the unforgiving glass.

My heart is heavy with unspoken pain,
Only God can hear my silent cries.
The more I keep it bottled up, the more it tortures me,
But if I let it out, it will break our bond.

I'm like a precious fish in a glass tank,
Swimming alone, with no companion.
I'm a beautiful object to behold,
But only for those who care to look.
Your fingers, which should caress me,
Are forever barred by the unforgiving glass.

I'm like a precious fish in a glass tank,
Swimming alone, with no companion.
I'm a beautiful object to behold,
But only for those who care to look.
Your fingers, which should caress me,
Are forever barred by the unforgiving glass.
