Kemesraan Lyrics by Iwan Fals ft. Titiek Hamzah
Lirik Lagu of Kemesraan
Verse 1: Iwan Fals
Suatu hari di kala kita duduk di tepi pantai
Dan memandang ombak dilautan yang kian menepi
Burung camar terbang bermain di derunya air
Suara alam ini hangatkan jiwa kita
Verse 2: Titiek Hamzah
Sementara sinar surya perlahan mulai tenggelam
Suara gitarmu mengalunkan melodi tentang cinta
Ada hati membara erat bersatu
Getar seluruh jiwa tercurah saat itu
Chorus: Iwan Fals & Titiek Hamzah
Kemesraan ini janganlah cepat berlalu
Kemesraan ini ingin kukenang selalu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram di sampingmu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram bersamamu
Verse 2: Iwan Fals, Titiek Hamzah
Sementara sinar surya perlahan mulai tenggelam
Suara gitarmu mengalunkan melodi tentang cinta
Ada hati membara erat bersatu
Getar seluruh jiwa tercurah saat itu
Chorus: Iwan Fals & Titiek Hamzah, Titiek Hamzah
Kemesraan ini janganlah cepat berlalu
Kemesraan ini ingin kukenang selalu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram di sampingmu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram bersamamu
Kemesraan ini janganlah cepat berlalu
Kemesraan ini ingin kukenang selalu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram di sampingmu
Hatiku damai jiwaku tentram bersamamu

Bersamamu
English Translation of Kemesraan
Some days
When we sat at the edge of the seashore
And watched the waves crashing over
Seagulls flying (and)
Playing in the crashing waves
These sounds of nature
Warming our souls
Meanwhile
(The) rays of the sun slowly setting
(The) sounds of your guitar
Playing a melody about love
There’s a spirit
Burning strongly as one
Moving the entire soul
Gushing out at that time
This warmth (of love)
Please don’t pass too soon
This warmth (of love)
I want to remember it forever
My heart is at peace
My soul is peaceful next to you
My heart is at peace
My soul is at peace with you
Meanwhile
(The) rays of the sun slowly setting
(The) sounds of your guitar
Playing a melody about love
There’s a spirit
Burning strongly as one
Moving the entire soul
Gushing out at that time
This warmth (of love)
Don’t pass too soon
This warmth (of love)
I want to remember it forever
My heart is at peace
My soul is peaceful next to you
My heart is at peace
My soul is at peace with you
This warmth (of love)
Please don’t pass too soon
This warmth (of love)
I want to remember it forever
My heart is at peace
My soul is peaceful next to you
My heart is at peace
My soul is at peace with you
