Lagu ini pernah sebenarnya sangat jadul banget. Tapi sampai hari ini tetap asyik didengarkan. Bahkan dalam interpretasi yang lain lagu ini sah sah saja jika digunakan untuk mengenang seseorang. Bukan saja sebagai kekasihnya (karena memang kalo dilihat dari lirik dan konteksnya lagu ini seputar orang yang ditinggal pergi kekasihnya), tapi mungkin orang-orang yang kita cintai.

Sejak kepergian kakek di bulan Rajab kemarin, terkadang aku merasa rindu. Ketika mengunjungi rumahnya, melihat pada kursi ruang tamu yang kini kosong, timbul rasa Rindu. Ingin sekali aku bertemu beliau meski dalam mimpi. Sejak kepergiannya aku baru melihatnya sekali dalam mimpi. Aku ingin melihatnya sesering mungkin.

Aku ingin melihatnya seperti saat kematian guruku yang mulia, Allahyarham KH. Muh Hussein meninggal 5 tahun silam. Aku bermimpi shalat dengan imam beliau seperti biasanya. Bermimpi bertemu ruh orang-orang tercinta yang telah wafat sepertinya memberi arti lain kebahagiaan ketika hati ini sedang rindu.

Lagunya Westlife ini tiba-tiba ngehits aja deh, tapi maaf ya aku bukan maniak musik. Kesukaanku pada hal-hal ini bersifat seasonal saja.

“My Love”

 

An empty street, an empty house

A hole inside my heart

I’m all alone, the rooms are getting smaller.

I wonder how, I wonder why, I wonder where they are

The days we had, the songs we sang together.(oh yeah)

 

And all my love, I’m holding on forever

Reaching for the love that seems so far

 

[Chorus:]

So I say a little prayer

And hope my dreams will take me there

Where the skies are blue, to see you once again… my love.

All the seas from coast to coast

To find the place I Love The Most

Where the fields are green, to see you once again… my love.

 

I try to read, I go to work

I’m laughing with my friends

But I can’t stop to keep myself from thinking. (oh no)

I wonder how, I wonder why, I wonder where they are

The days we had, the songs we sang together.(oh yeah)

 

And all my love, I’m holding on forever

Reaching for the love that seems so far

 

So I say a little prayer

And hope my dreams will take me there

Where the skies are blue, to see you once again… my love.

All the seas from coast to coast

To find the place I Love The Most

Where the fields are green, to see you once again…

 

To hold you in my arms

To promise you my love

To tell you from the heart

You’re all I’m thinking of

 

Reaching for the love that seems so far

 

So I say a little prayer

And hope my dreams will take its there

Where the skies are blue, to see you once again… my love.

All the seas from coast to coast

To find the place I Love The Most

Where the fields are green, to see you once again… my love.

 

Say it in a prayer (my sweet love)

Dreams will take it there

Where the skies are blue (woah yeah), to see you once again my love. (oh my love)

All the seas from coast to coast

To find the place I Love The Most

Where the fields are green, to see you once again…. My Love.
