[Verse 1]
Dua tahun sudah kita berjalan
Two years we have walked
Menyusuri cerita penuh kenangan
Exploring a story full of memories
Tak selalu indah seperti harapan
Not always as beautiful as hoped
Namun kau tetap jadi tujuan
But you remain the destination
Pernah kita saling terluka
We once hurt each other
Pernah terdiam karena kecewa
Once silent due to disappointment
Banyak badai datang menerpa
Many storms came to strike
Namun cinta tak pernah menyerah
But love never gave up
[Pre-Chorus]
Kita pernah hampir kehilangan arah
We almost lost our way
Saat keadaan tak lagi mudah
When things were no longer easy
Namun genggamanmu menguatkanku
But your grip strengthened me
Membuatku yakin memilihmu
Making me sure to choose you
[Chorus]
Dua tahun bukan waktu yang sebentar
Two years is not a short time
Kita lewati hujan dan badai yang besar
We've been through big rain and storms
Jatuh dan bangun, tangis dan tawa
Falling and rising, tears and laughter
Semua menjadi cerita kita berdua
All become our story together
Jika nanti dunia tak berpihak
If later the world is not on our side
Jangan biarkan cinta kita retak
Don't let our love crack
Sebab dari sekian banyak manusia
Because out of so many people
Hatiku masih memilihmu selamanya
My heart still chooses you forever
[Verse 2]
Bukan sekali kita ingin menyerah
It wasn't just once we wanted to give up
Saat ego membuat semuanya susah
When ego made everything difficult
Namun kita belajar untuk mengalah
But we learned to yield
Memperbaiki cinta yang hampir punah
Repairing love that was almost extinct
Terima kasih masih di sini
Thank you for still being here
Meski tak mudah memahami
Even though it's not easy to understand
Kita bukan pasangan sempurna
We are not a perfect couple
Tapi selalu mencoba bersama
But always trying together
[Bridge]
Jika waktu bisa kuputar kembali
If I could turn back time
Aku tetap ingin bertemu dirimu
I would still want to meet you
Bukan karena jalan kita mudah
Not because our path was easy
Tapi karena bersamamu aku tak menyerah
But because with you, I don't give up
Semoga tahun-tahun berikutnya
May the coming years
Kita masih saling menjaga
We still take care of each other
Bukan hanya untuk hari ini
Not just for today
Tapi sampai nanti rambut memutih
But until our hair turns white
[Chorus - Final]
Dua tahun bukan waktu yang sebentar
Two years is not a short time
Begitu banyak cerita yang telah kita kejar
So many stories we have pursued
Meski rintangan datang silih berganti
Even though obstacles come and go
Kita masih di sini, saling memiliki
We are still here, owning each other
Dan jika suatu saat kau bertanya
And if one day you ask
Mengapa aku masih memilih kita
Why I still choose us
Jawabannya tak perlu banyak kata
The answer doesn't need many words
Karena sampai hari ini, tetap kamu ngnya.
Because until today, it's still you.
[Outro]
Dua tahun telah kita lewati
Two years we have passed
Dan masih banyak mimpi menanti
And many dreams are still waiting
Terima kasih telah bertahan denganku
Thank you for staying with me
Semoga selamanya, aku dan kamu.
Hopefully forever, me and you.
