Kaktus, by Suara Kayu (English Lyric Translation)

 

ORIGINAL SONG of Kaktus

Presented by Suara Kayu

Kita sudah kenal lama

We have know for long time

Seperti kakak adik

Like a brother and sister

Apakah kita hanya segini saja?

Are  we just like this?

 

*Aku ingin buat kamu tertawaku bersamaku

I want to make you laugh together with me

Karna kata mereka tertawa bisa bikin sayang

Because they say laughing together could become my dear

 

**Tapi, apa yang telah terjadi?

But, what have done?

Lihat tawamu, ku yang menjadi sayang kepadamu

Seeing your laugh, I start to love you

 

***Ikan apa yang terindah?

Ikan apa yang terindah? (Indonesian poetic words translation: what the most beautiful kind of fish?)

Ikannot live without you in my life

I can not live without in my life (Read in Indonesian poetic words: Ikan not live without you in my life)

Ayam apa yang termanis?

Ayam apa yang termanis? (Indonesian poetic words translation: what the most beautiful kind of the chick?)

I am falling in love with you

I am falling in love with you (Read in Indonesian poetic words: I am (sounds like “ayam”) falling in love with you)

 

Aku ingin kamu tahu

I only want you to know

Semua rasaku kepadamu

All of my feelings I have for you

Kutak ingin menjadi kaktus

I don’t want to be a “Cactus”  (it’s a short for the meaning a boy and girl who don’t involve in any relationship and just end up in brother and sister zone)
