Tak Bisakah

The Lyrics that really touch your heart - Hats off to Peterpan







Tak Bisakah
Hatiku bimbang namun tetap pikirkanmu
Selalu s'lalu dalam hatiku
Ku melangkah sejauh apapun itu
Selalu kau didalam hatiku
Ku berjalan berjalan memutar waktu
Berharap temukan sisa hatimu
Mengertilah ku ingin engkau begitu
Mengerti kau didalam hatiku
Tak bisakah kau menungguku
Hingga nanti tetap menunggu
Tak bisakah kau menuntunku
Menemani dalam hidupku
Ku berjalan-berjalan memutar waktu
Berharap temukan sisa hatimu
Mengertilah ku ingin engkau begitu
Mengerti kau didalam hatiku
Dara kau menjadi hidupku
Kemana kau tau isi hatiku
Tunggu sejenak aku disitu
Jalanku jalan menemukanmu
Tak bisakah kau menungguku
Hingga nanti tetap menunggu
Tak bisakah kau menuntunku
Menemani dalam hidupku

Can't you?
My heart is unsure, yet I still think of you
Always always in my heart
No matter how far I walk
Always, you're in my heart
I took a stroll, turns back the time
Hoping to find the remains of your heart
Please understand that I want you
Understand that you're in my heart
Can't you wait for me
Until later on still waiting
Can’t you be my guide
Accompany me in my life
I took a stroll, turning back the time
Hoping to find the remains of your heart
Please understand that I want you
Understand that you're in my heart
Girl, you have become my life
Where, you know what's in my heart
Wait for me for a moment there
The path I walk will lead me to you
Can't you wait for me
Until later on still waiting
Can’t you be my guide
Accompany me in my life

The Lyrics above by Peterpan as an OST for the movie "Alexandria" touched my heart. Though badly plagiarized for the hindi song "Kya Mujhe Pyaar Hai", the original lyrics are much more beautiful and Peterpan immortalizes the same with his excellent string work and an amazing voice.

The movie's sequence reminds me of my older days when I used to be so introverted to express my feelings that every time I fell into the trap of my own heart to realize that the roses in my hands have turned into dust and fallen into the grave of my own feelings. I have lived with this ever since. Time after time, day after day and year after year, the stories got repeated and I grew tired of my own emotions and thought of burying them altogether. But perhaps it was not to happen. I found love in the most unusual way. Unusual because I am never like this. It took me 15 minutes to understand my feelings and just 2 days to express them and not 2 years like before. I am happy I did it. It hurts if you keep things to yourself. Let the emotions flow like a river, don't contain it. Containing it hurts and becomes a stinking pool of water of no use. Water you cannot even throw away. The reality is that this time I wanted the roses in my hands to remain roses and not turn into dust. I could have sung this song 2 years back, but I believe that the happiness in my life today, doesn't ask for it.

So my suggestion to all you guys and gals in love -- "Do not waste time in making your mind if you are really in love, time slips very quickly, so make the person in front of you realize your emotions as soon as possible!"

Girls cannot explain, it is a guys job to take the first step. So guys make sure you do not let the girl you love fly away and later regret for it....


And here is the Hindi Version "Kya Mujhe Pyaar Hai!" - Somehow Enjoyable
