When i was 16 my father said “you can do anything you want with your life”
You just have to work hard to get it
That’s when i decided, when I die, I will be remember to the life I live
Not the money I made
Lagi-lagi Avicii, DJ asal Swedia ini ngeluarin lagu yang luar biasa enak! Kalo kemaren yang the bestnya itu Hey Brother dari album True, yang sekarang ini cuma single judulnya The Nights. Lagunya bikin semangat, maknanya bagus dan terlebih lagi videonya bikin hidup tambah hidupp. Ciaaayyy!
Lagu ini lebih banyak bercerita tentang pesan dari seorang Ayah kepada anaknya. Kira-kira intisari pesan ayah tersebut seperti ini : “Nak, suatu saat kamu akan meninggalkan dunia yang fana ini.. Maka jangan engkau sia-sia kan kehidupan di dunia ini, karena sesungguhnya kehidupan kita di dunia ini untuk mempersiapkan kehidupan yang kekal abadi kelak, yaitu kehidupan Akhirat”
Itu amanat lagu versi saya deng. hehe.
Hey, once upon a younger year
When all our shadows disappeared
The animals inside came out to play
Hey, when face to face with all our fears
Learned our lessons through the tears
Made memories we knew would never fade
One day my father—he told me,
“Son, don’t let it slip away”
He took me in his arms, I heard him say,
“When you get older
Your wild life will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you’re afraid.”
He said, “One day you’ll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember.”
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
When thunder clouds start pouring down
Light a fire they can’t put out
Carve your name into those shinning stars
He said, “Go venture far beyond the shores.
Don’t forsake this life of yours.
I’ll guide you home no matter where you are.”
One day my father—he told me,
“Son, don’t let it slip away.”
When I was just a kid I heard him say,
“When you get older
Your wild life will live for younger days
Think of me if ever you’re afraid.”
He said, “One day you’ll leave this world behind
So live a life you will remember.”
My father told me when I was just a child
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
These are the nights that never die
My father told me
Rest In Peace
