[Verse 1]
Ingin sungguh aku bicara
Satu kali saja
Sebagai ungkapan kata
Perasaanku padamu

[Verse 2]
Telah cukup lama ku diam
Didalam keheningan ini
Kebekukan di bibirku
Tak berdayanya tubuhku

[Chorus]
Dan ternyata cinta yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta

[Verse 3]
Kau yang sungguh selalu setia
Menemani kesepianku
Menjaga lelap tidurku
Membasuhku setulusnya

[Verse 4]
Merekahnya fajar hatiku
Menghangatkan luruhku
Dan resapkan keharuman
Engkau yang mencintaiku

[Chorus]
Dan ternyata cinta yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta tulus mendekap jiwaku
Dan ternyata cinta yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Dan ternyata cinta yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata cinta tulus mendekap jiwaku
Dan ternyata cinta yang menguatkan aku
Dan ternyata

Formed at Airlangga University in Indonesia, Padi (then known as Soda) performed their first show in 1996. The name change occurred a year later – it was meant to symbolize the band’s humility, as the word means rice, which is a symbol of modesty – and by 1999, the band had a deal and an album in stores. The deal, which was signed after a rep from Sony caught a performance at a pub, led to a successful appearance on a various-artists compilation.

The debut, Lain Dunia, was followed by Sesuatu Yang Tertunda in 2001. Selling nearly 500,000 copies, the band solidified its standing with the mega-hit single “Kasih Tak Sampai.” Their next album, Save My Soul, would be even bigger, hitting the half-a-million sales mark its first week after release. Padi released their fourth, self-titled, album in 2005.

There have also been a handful of compilation appearances for the group, including a 2002 World Cup album contribution, “Work of Heaven.”
