[Intro]
Se no
One, two
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
Saat bel berbunyi ku meninggalkan
Sekolah lalu pergi ke tempat latihan
Ingin jadi bintang yang ku dambakan
Dreamin' girls

[Verse 2]
Meskipun di sekitarku semuanya rival
Semua teman yang memiliki impian sama
Lewati keringat dan air mata
Dreamin' girls

[Chorus 1]
Di suatu hari pasti
Di atas panggung yang besar
Dengan bermandikan lampu sorot
Jadi peran utama nyanyi dan tari

[Verse 3]
Di depan cermin diriku membayangkannya
Aku di masa depan melambaikan tangan
Menghadap penonton yang riuh ramai
Dreamin' girls

[Chorus 2]
Tolong diriku ini
Tetaplah terus kau jaga
Perlahan-lahan bentangkan tangan
Hingga mimpi itu terwujud

[Verse 4]
Meskipun anak perempuan pada saatnya
Pastilah ingin mencoba apa rasanya cinta
Sayang tiada waktu untuk itu
Dreamin' girls

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.
