CINTA PUTIH - TITIEK PUSPA, Grace Simon





Bayupun semilir puspapun mewangi
karena dikau
Bulan senyum ayu, Surya keemasan
karena dikau
Samudera menggelegar, gelombang berkejar
karena dikau
Simfoni yang terindah terciptalah sudah
Karena dikau

Dikau penyejuk rasa bila senyummu mengulum
Dikau hangatkan cinta bila sentuhan berpadu
Dikau getarkan jiwa dalam membisikkan cumbu rayu
Syahdu dalam peraduan hingga akhir mimpi senyum

Cinta putih murni balas kasih suci untuk dikau
dikau teruntuk daku, daku diciptakan untuk dikau

Tuhan bimbinglah kami hidup berdua hingga akhir nanti
Luhur ciptaanmu Tuhan Kekal Cinta Putih Murni

** musik

Cinta putih murni balas kasih suci untuk dikau
dikau teruntuk daku, daku diciptakan untuk dikau

Tuhan bimbinglah kami hidup berdua hingga akhir nanti
Luhur ciptaanmu Tuhan Kekal Cinta Putih Murni

Piano Man - Billie Joel


     C       G         Am
It's nine o'clock on a saturday
        F                  D    
The regular crowd shuffles in
           C    G          Am            
There's an old man sitting next to me
       F           G         C
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
          C             G        Am
He says, "son, can you play me a memory?
    F                      D
I'm not really sure how it goes
         C            G            Am
But it's sad and it's sweet and i knew it complete
     F        G             C
When i wore a younger man's clothes"

Am           G
La la la, de de da
Am           G     C
La la, de de da da da

Chorus:
C         G                Am
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
F              D
Sing us a song tonight
            C          G          Am
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody
    F             G       C
And you've got us feelin' alright

    C           G        Am
Now john at the bar is a friend of mine
   F                     D
He gets me my drinks for free
         C            G          Am
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
            F              G           C
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
          C       G               Am
He says, "bill, i believe this is killing me."
       F                       D
As the smile ran away from his face
          C           G          Am
"well i'm sure that i could be a movie star
   F           G           C
If i could get out of this place"
    Am              G
Oh, la la la, de de da
Am           G     C
La la, de de da da da

    C         G           Am
Now paul is a real estate novelist
    F                    D
Who never had time for a wife
         C            G          Am
And he's talkin' with davy who's still in the navy
    F        G           C
And probably will be for life

        C           G          Am
And the waitress is practicing politics
       F                      D
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
             C         G               Am
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
         F           G        C
But it's better than drinkin' alone

Chorus

       C           G           Am
It's a pretty good crowd for a saturday
        F                  D
And the manager gives me a smile
          C               G               Am
'cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
   F            G          C
To forget about life for a while
        C         G             Am
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
        F                        D
And the microphone smells like a beer
         C          G           Am
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
          F             G         C
And say, "man, what are you doin' here?"

    Am              G
Oh, la la la, de de da
Am           G     C
La la, de de da da da

Ketika Tangan dan Kaki Bicara - Chrisye


(Copas dari kamar sebelah)....
Kenangan Taufiq Ismail terhadap Chrisye

(hikmah alquran, sebuah sastra yg agung, mampu menggetarkan hati manusia)......

Suatu saat, Chrisye minta Taufiq Ismail untuk menuliskan syair religi untuk satu lagunya.
Dan disanggupi sebulan.Ternyata, minggu pertama macet, tidak ada ide. Minggu kedua macet, ketiga macet hingga menjelang hari terakhir masih juga tdk ada ide. Taufiq gelisah dan berniat telpon Chrisye dan bilang: Chris maaf, macet, ujar Taufiq.Malam harinya, Taufiq mengaji. Ketika sampai ayat 65 surat Yaasiin dia berhenti.

Makna ayat ini ttg Hari Pengadilan Akhir ini luar biasa, kata Taufiq. Dan segera dia pindahkan pesan ayat tersebut ke dalam lirik-lirik lagu.Ketika pita rekaman itu sdh di tangan Chrisye, terjadi hal yg tidak biasa. Ketika berlatih di kamar, baru dua baris Chrisye menangis, mencoba lagi, menangis lagi.

Dan begitu berkali2.Menurut Chrisye, lirik yg dibuat adalah satu2nya lirik paling dahsyat sepanjang karirnya.
Ada kekuatan misterius yg mencekam dan menggetarkan. Setiap menyanyi dua baris, air mata sdh membanjir. Yanti, istri Chrisye, sampai syok melihat hal tdk biasa tsb.Lirik lagu tsb begitu merasuk kalbu dan menghadapkan kenyataan betapa manusia tidak berdaya ketika hari akhir tiba. Sepanjang malam dia gelisah, lalu ditelponlah Taufiq dan diceritakan kegelisahannya.

Taufiq mengatakan bhw lirik lagu tsb diilhami surat Yaasiin: 65. Disarankan kepada Chrisye, agar tenang.Di studio rekaman hal itu terjadi lagi. Chrisye mencoba, tetapi baru dua baris sdh menangis. Dan berulang kali hasilnya sama.Erwin Gutawa yg menunggu sampai senewen.Yanti lalu shalat untuk khusus mendoakannya.

Akhirnya dengan susah payah, Chrisye berhasil menyanyikannya hingga selesai. Rekaman itu sekali jadi, tdk diulang karena Chrisye tak sanggup menyanyikannya lagi.-------

Inilah ayat yang menginspirasi lirik lagu tsb.....:

ﺍﻟْﻴَﻮْﻡَ ﻧَﺨْﺘِﻢُ ﻋَﻠَﻰٰ ﺃَﻓْﻮَﺍﻫِﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﺗُﻜَﻠِّﻤُﻨَﺎ ﺃَﻳْﺪِﻳﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﺗَﺸْﻬَﺪُ ﺃَﺭْﺟُﻠُﻬُﻢْ ﺑِﻤَﺎ ﻛَﺎﻧُﻮﺍ ﻳَﻜْﺴِﺒُﻮﻥَ
"Pada hari ini Kami tutup mulut mereka; dan berkatalah kepada Kami tangan mereka dan memberi
kesaksianlah kaki mereka terhadap apa yang dahulu mereka usahakan" [QS. Yaasiin(36): 65]

KETIKA TANGAN DAN KAKI BERKATA
Lirik : Taufiq Ismail
Lagu : Chrisye

Akan datang hari mulut dikunci
Kata tak ada lagi
Akan tiba masa tak ada suara
Dari mulut kita

Berkata tangan kita
Tentang apa yang dilakukannya
Berkata kaki kita
Kemana saja dia melangkahnya
Tidak tahu    bila harinya
Tanggung jawab tiba

Rabbana
Tangan kami
Kaki kami
Mulut kami
Mata hati kami
Luruskanlah
Kukuhkanlah
Di jalan cahaya…. sempurna

Mohon karunia
Kepada kami
HambaMu yang hina
