You Are My Everything

By Powell

When I went to bed last night, my last thought was of you.

When I woke up this morning, my first thought was of you.

You are my everything; my sun, my stars, my sky.

You are my everything… and this is the reason why:

For when we met it was fate, fate from the soul within.

For when we met it was choice, choice to be your friend.

For when we first laughed together, I knew it was meant to be.

For when I fell in love, I knew you had fallen in love with me.

You are my everything, my breath belongs to you.

You are my everything, hold these words to be true.

You are my everything and

I’ll always love you…

and whats more

I know you’ll always love me too.

Kaulah Segalanya Bagiku

Oleh Powell

Ketika Aku pergi tidur semalam, pikiran terakhirku adalah dirimu.

Ketika Aku bangun pagi ini, pikiran pertamaku adalah dirimu.

Kaulah segalanya bagiku, matahariku, bintangku, langitku.

Kaulah segalanya bagiku … dan inilah alasannya:

Karena ketika kita bertemu nasib, nasib dari jiwa yang dalam.

Karena ketika kita bertemu itu adalah pilihan, pilihan untuk menjadi temanmu.

Karena ketika pertama kali kita tertawa bersama, Aku tahu itu akan terjadi.

Karena ketika aku jatuh cinta, aku tahu kau telah jatuh cinta denganku.

Kaulah Segalanya Bagiku, napasku milikmu.

Kaulah Segalanya Bagiku, peganglah kata-kata ini menjadi kenyataan.

Kaulah Segalanya Bagiku dan

Aku akan selalu mencintaimu …

dan apa lagi

Aku tahu kau akan selalu mencintaiku juga.

For example the use of ‘nasib’ can be replaced with ‘takdir’. The translator use literal translation to translate it. Actually, Powel use familiar words so that the translator can easily translate this poetry without trouble.
