[Intro]
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Denganmu...

[Verse 1]
Bersepeda ku menanjaki bukit itu
Sekuat tenaga kukayuh pedalnya
Angin pun mulai menghembus kemejaku
Ku merasa masih kurang cepat

[Pre-Chorus]
Akhirnya kusadari
Perasaan sebenarnya
Ingin jalani sejujurnya
Hanya di jalan ini ku akan terus berlari

[Chorus 1]
Jika kusuka, 'kan kukatakan suka
Tak kututupi, kukatakan sejujurnya
Jika kusuka, 'kan kukatakan suka
Dari hatiku terbuka kukatakan

[Post-Chorus]
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Denganmu...

[Verse 2]
Peluh mengalir di wajahku tak kuseka
Aku ingin tampil apa adanya
Di bawah cahya pohon-pohon
Jalan pintas menuju musim panas

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Tak pandai ungkapkan
Dalam kata-kata
Lurus kujalani hidupku
Dengan caraku ku akan terus berlari

[Chorus 2]
Kamu berharga lebih dari siapa pun
Walau kau tolak, tak akan kusesali
Kamu berharga lebih dari siapa pun
Tadinya ku ingin ungkapkan rasa ini

[Chorus 1]
Jika kusuka, 'kan kukatakan suka
Tak kututupi, kukatakan sejujurnya
Jika kusuka, 'kan kukatakan suka
Dari hatiku terbuka kukatakan

[Outro]
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Aitakatta! Yes!
Denganmu...
Aitakatta!

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.
