AKB48 - Shonichi [初日]



Frankly, I'm not a fans of AKB48.
I like their song  "Shonichi [初日]" because of the lyrics.
The first time I heard that song when our students : Agnes, Ihsan, and Gery sang that song at Japanese song singing contest in our school.
The lyrics really touched. Agnes sang cheerfully and she told us about the message of that song through her powerful voice. Love it.

I hope they'll make a cover video with their own arrangement :)


    私は立ってる 
    憧れていたステージ
    大歓声 拍手と熱気の中
    厳しいレッスン 
    自分の壁 乗り越えて
    迎えた今日 
    チャンスの幕が開く
    一人だけ踊れずに
    帰り道 泣いた日もある
    思うように歌えずに
    自信を失った日もある
    いつも ライバルが
    輝いて見えた
    夢は汗の中に
    少しずつ咲いて行く花
    その努力 
    決して裏切らない
    夢は汗の中に
    芽を出してずっと待っている
    いつか きっと 
    願い叶うまで
    スポットライトが
    こんなに眩しいなんて
    長い夜が明けた朝陽のようね
    先輩たちには
    負けたくないよ 絶対に
    私たちのショーを作りたかった
    怪我をして休んだ時
    悔しくて 泣いた日もある
    学校とレッスンの
    両立にあきらめた日もある
    だけどアンコールが
    どこかで聞こえた
    夢は涙の先
    泣き止んだ微笑の花
    頑張った蕾がやがて咲く
    夢は涙の先
    雨風に負けず信じてる
    晴れた空に 祈り届くまで
    死ぬ気で
    踊ろう!
    死ぬ気で
    歌おう!
    初心を
    忘れず
    全力投球で!
    Oh!
    夢は汗の中に
    少しずつ咲いて行く花
    その努力 
    決して裏切らない
    夢は汗の中に
    芽を出してずっと待っている
    いつか きっと 
    願い叶うまで
    I’m standing
    On the stage I longed for
    Amidst the loud cheers, applause, and enthusiasm
    With strict lessons,
    I go beyond my own limits
    Today, I was accepted as a member
    The seeds of chance open
    While I’m not dancing all by myself,
    There were days where I’d cry along the road home
    While I’m singing without thinking,
    There were days where I lost my confidence
    Always, my rivals
    Looked like they were sparkling
    The dream is amidst the sweat
    It’s a flower that blooms bit by bit
    That effort
    By no means will let me down
    The dream is amidst the sweat
    I’m always waiting for it to spout out
    Until one day, for sure,
    The wish comes true
    The spotlight,
    Like all of this, is so dazzling
    Just like the long nights turning to dawn with the morning sun
    I absolutely don’t want to
    Lose to my seniors
    We wanted to make our own show
    When I was on leave due to injury,
    There were painful days when I cried
    There were also days
    When I lost my balance of school and lessons
    However, the encore
    I could hear no matter where
    The dream is just ahead of the tears
    A flower from the smile after the tears stop
    The bud that did its best will bloom before long
    The dream is just ahead of the tears
    Without losing to the driving rain, I’m believing
    Until my prayer reaches the sky that cleared up
    Let’s dance
    Until we drop dead!
    Let’s sing
    Until we drop dead!
    Without forgetting
    Our original goal,
    We’ll give everything we’ve got!
    Oh!
    The dream is amidst the sweat
    It’s a flower that blooms bit by bit
    That effort
    By no means will let me down
    The dream is amidst the sweat
    I’m always waiting for it to spout out
    Until one day, for sure,
    The wish comes true

    Orang Korea di Bontang


    오늘한국인을만났어요. 아주재미있었어요.





    Subhanallah...


    Akhirnya bisa ketemu yang namanya orang Korea dan ngobrol secara langsung.

    Sabtu kemarin waktu lagi antri di KFC sama Miss Nunung untuk makan siang, di belakang kami ada dua orang laki-laki berwajah oriental. Hemm kalau bukan orang China, pasti orang Jepang pikirku. Sengaja aku "nguping" pembicaraan mereka. Lho kok rasanya tidak asing dengan bahasanya. Yang pasti itu bukan bahasa Jepang. Dilihat dari raut wajahnya kok bukan wajah-wajah Jepang atau China, malah mirip wajahnya Oppa. Makin penasaran aku makin konsentrasi mendengarkan pembicaraan mereka.
    Ya Allah bahasa Korea !!!!

    Hemm dengan segenap keberanian akhirnya aku menyapa mereka meski cuma beerkata " Annyeong Haseyo". Sepertinya mereka terkejut ketika aku menyapa menggunakan bahasa Korea. Mungkin mereka takut aku mengerti pembicaraan mereka dari tadi.

    Oppa, Saranghae !!!!
