Sometimes, life is cruel...no matter how hard we work for something, things don't always fall into our favour...felt that, overcame that, yet...new ordeal always there...
But at times, I do feel that no matter what happen, I still have love...that other things do not matter anymore, or, that it's worthwhile to move forward no matter how tough the journey would be...
I came across this song, "Laskar Pelangi" by Nidji from a friend's blog, and I really love it...it urges us not to give up although life is sometimes unfair, and to smile and stay happy although life is not as beautiful as in heaven, because we still have the power of love in this world...
I felt calm and relaxed whenever I listen to this song, therefore I hope I can share this song and spread the happiness to all.... good day :)
Update @ 8 January 2013:
I just discovered that this song "Laskar Pelangi" was actually from an Indonesian movie with the same title. "Laskar Pelangi" literally means 'The Rainbow Troops', and that the movie was based on a novel by Andrea Hirata.
The movie is on a group of 10 schoolboys and their two inspirational
teachers as they struggle with poverty and develop hopes for the future
in Gantong Village on the farming and tin mining island of Belitung. The movie has apparently won many awards, locally and internationally.
You can get more info here - the language is in Malay though:
Lyric for "Laskar Pelangi"
ReplyDeleteMimpi adalah kunci ,
Untuk kita menakhlukkan dunia ,
Berlarilah tanpa lelah ,
Sampai engkau meraihnya ,
Laskar pelangi ,
Takkan terikat waktu ,
Bebaskan mimpimu di angkasa ,
Warnai bintang di jiwa ,
Menarilah dan terus tertawa ,
Walau dunia tak seindah syurga ,
Bersyukurlah pada yang kuasa ,
Cinta kita di dunia ,
Selamanya ,
Cinta kepada hidup ,
Memberikan senyuman abadi ,
Walau hidup kadang tak adil ,
Tapi cinta lengkapi kita ,
Oww!
Laskar pelangi ,
Takkan terikat waktu ,
Jangan berhenti mewarnai ,
Jutaan mimpi di bumi ,
Oh!
Menarilah dan terus tertawa ,
Walau dunia tak seindah syurga ,
Bersyukurlah pada yang kuasa ,
Cinta kita di dunia
Menarilah dan terus tertawa ,
Walau dunia tak seindah syurga ,
Bersyukurlah pada yang kuasa ,
Cinta kita di dunia ,
Selamanya ,
Selamanya ,
Laskar pelangi ,
Takkan terikat waktu....
