Hello #musiczone community friends. I'm @samuelstifen and today we enter week 80 of round 2 of this MusicZone show. I feel this event went very well, and the musicians here are very productive and accomplished in displaying their talents or developing their talents. Here,I am enthusiastic about my work and never give up. I am grateful for the journey I have started until now, making music an important part of my life for the happiness of myself and others. Hopefully my performance can provide beauty to the listeners.

For Hive Music Festival Week 80 Round 2, I will be performing a song titled Di Perantauan "overseas" popularized by the band The Rain.

The Rain is an Indonesian music group from Yogyakarta that has been active for over 20 years. The band has created many works from 2001 to 2024. They have had a successful career and have performed in many concerts in Indonesia and other Asian countries.

The song I will be performing has a very meaningful message, and each lyric carries an extraordinary meaning.

The song diperantauan "overseas" by The Rain is about the experiences and struggles of someone who leaves their hometown to seek new experiences. The lyrics contain the joys and sorrows experienced by someone who is away from home, including the effort to deceive their loved ones about their condition to prevent them from worrying.

This song carries an important message about the realities of living abroad and the importance of staying strong and fighting even when far from home. It also portrays the value of support and prayers from loved ones for someone who is away.

From the meaning of the song, I can quote that no matter what we go through in a foreign land or another country to find work, we must remain strong and resilient in facing the challenges of life there. Even though far from home and facing various difficulties, we continue to fight and persevere. And everything will be beautiful in its own time, so keep fighting for the people we love. And even though we sometimes have to lie, our hearts sometimes have to lie to protect the feelings of our loved ones. Although lying is not a good thing, in this context, the lies are done with good intentions, which is to protect the feelings of our loved ones from worrying.

That's all I can provide about the meaning of the song in my presentation. I hope you enjoy it. I would also like to thank MusicZone and the team participating in this event. Through this event, we musicians can learn a lot about understanding music and also interact with other musicians. I hope this event continues to run smoothly and be successful in the future. That's all I can give for this week, and I hope to meet again next week. Thank you!

LYRICH-DIPERANTAUAN

Berawal cari pengalaman
Meninggalkan kampung halaman
Berbekal nasihat dan doa
dari orang-orang tercinta

Berbohong tentang keadaan
Agar mereka tak kepikiran
S’lalu menanti saatnya kembali
meski kadang hanya setahun sekali

Mengukir cerita di perantauan
Belajar dewasa dengan pilihan
Meski kadang ramainya kota ini
terasa begitu sunyi

Bertemu banyak wajah baru
Ada yang mencuri hatiku
Ada yang menemani tertawa
saat hidup sedang merana

Masih jelas kuingat
saat-saat yang berat
Namun meskipun lelah
Ku tak pernah menyerah

Mengukir cerita di perantauan
Belajar dewasa dengan pilihan
Meski kadang ramainya kota ini
terasa begitu sunyi
terasa begitu sunyi
terasa begitu sunyi

ENGLISH VERSION

Starting off in search of experience
Leaving my hometown
Armed with advice and prayers
from my loved ones

Lying about my situation
So they won't worry
Always waiting for the moment to return
even if it's only once a year

Carving stories in foreign lands
Learning to grow up with choices
Even though sometimes this bustling city
feels so lonely

Meeting many new faces
Some stole my heart
Some accompanied me in laughter
when life was in sorrow

I still clearly remember
the hard times
But even though I'm tired
I never gave up

Carving stories in foreign lands
Learning to grow up with choices
Even though sometimes this bustling city
feels so lonely
feels so lonely
feels so lonely
