Ilahii anta maqshudy wa ridhoka mathluby a'thiny mahabbataka wa ma'rifatak...

Semua yang telah aku dapat
Indah dan gemerlap
Satu hari kan pudar
Dan sinarnya akan hilang
Sesuatu yang telah aku raih
Di dalam hidup ini
Tak untuk selamanya
Ini semua sementara

Reff:
Yang aku cari hanyalah cinta
Hanya cinta yang tak terganti
Yang aku mau hanyalah cinta
Hanyalah cinta yang ku beri
Yang selalu ku tunggu hanyalah cinta
Hanya cinta yang tak terganti
Yang aku nanti hanyalah cinta
Hanyalah cinta yang abadi
Mencari artinya hidup ini
Detak waktu masih ada
Ada yang paling berwarna
Apa yang kan sia-sia
Yang aku cari hanyalah cinta
Hanya cinta yang tak terganti
Yang aku mau hanyalah cinta
Hanyalah cinta yang ku beri
abadi, abadi, hanyalah cinta
hanya cinta ooh
Yang aku cari hanyalah cinta
Hanya cinta yang tak terganti
Yang aku mau hanyalah cinta
Hanyalah cinta yang ku beri
abadi
