[Intro]
Maafkan aku, ku bersumpah
Kepada prinsip
Perasaan suci
Walau kau memelukku, tak bisa
Ku tak bisa mencium

[Verse 1]
Cinta itu kapan pun
Bagai bintang jatuh
Muncul dengan tiba-tiba
Hilang tiba-tiba

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Daripada bicara
Ratusan kata pun
Berikanlah waktu
Untuk saling memandang

[Chorus 1]
Dengan pertahanan sempurna
Kujaga prinsip
Perasaan suci
Cari saja yang lain
Maafkan aku, ku bersumpah
Kepada prinsip
Perasaan suci
Walau kau memelukku, tak bisa
Ku tak bisa mencium
Maafkanlah

[Verse 2]
Papa berkata padaku
"Pancinglah dirinya"
Dia bohong atau jujur
Segera terungkap

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Daripada membuka
Ketukan hari ini
Kuserahkan kunci
Sampai hari itu tiba

[Chorus 2]
Hatiku penakut
Prinsip cinta suci
Sampai kapan pun
Tak ingin dilukai
Kau yang pacaran denganku pun
Prinsip cinta suci
Sedikit saja
Kulepaskan tanganku dan lari
Pahami perasaan
Kekanakkanku

[Chorus 1]
Dengan pertahanan sempurna
Kujaga prinsip
Perasaan suci
Cari saja yang lain
Maafkan aku, ku bersumpah
Kepada prinsip
Perasaan suci
Walau kau memelukku, tak bisa
Ku tak bisa mencium
Maafkanlah

JKT48 is an Indonesian idol group whose name is derived from its based city of Jakarta and the Japanese idol group AKB48. Formed in 2011, it is the first AKB48 sister group outside Japan and adopts the concept of “idols you can meet”. Fans can attend daily performances at the group’s theater, which was built as a close replica to the AKB48 Theater in Akihabara.

Producer Yasushi Akimoto decided to bring the AKB48 concept to Indonesia because the group had begun to develop a fan base in the country. Indonesia’s growing economy was seen as a potential market by many Japanese companies, and Akimoto established a franchising partnership with Dentsu Media Group Indonesia to replicate the AKB48 business model. Dentsu Media Group Indonesia then cooperate with the country’s largest media conglomerate Global Mediacom (MNC Media), the southeast Asia’s largest and most integrated media group as JKT48 official media partner.

While JKT48 does not restrict membership by nationality, applicants must be residents of Indonesia. The group has 72 (as of June 2014) members and released its first studio album Heavy Rotation on 16 February 2013 via Hits Records, a division of MNC subsidiary PT Star Media Nusantara. It performs songs by AKB48 and other sister groups that are translated into Indonesian.
