Alone Song
Alone (English Learning Song)
(Verse 1)
I'm sitting here alone,
Just me and my thoughts, you know?
Sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's tough,
Being alone, it's not enough.
I'm sitting here alone,
Just me and my thoughts, you know?
Sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's tough,
Being alone, it's not enough.
(Chorus)
Alone, alone, what does it mean?
To be by yourself, without a scene.
It's time for reflection, a moment to pause,
To think about life, and all its laws.

Last night, I came home from work,
So tired, I felt like a shirk.
But then I decided, "Let's stay in,"
With Netflix and tea, I'll begin.

(Answer)
I love a good cup of tea,
Or a book, or a series, you see.
I get lost in them, completely engrossed,
It's my escape, a feeling of being embossed.

(Verse 3)
Living alone, in a studio flat,
Sometimes I feel lonely, like a lost cat.
So I try to be social, have some fun,
Avoid sitting at home, under the sun.

Do you wish you had more time alone?

(Answer)
Definitely not, I need some connection,
I'm a mix of introvert and extrovert, with a slight deflection.
While I appreciate my time alone,
I don't crave it, it's not my own.

(Verse 4)
Some time alone, it's a must,
For self-reflection, getting rid of dust.
Thinking about yourself, your actions, your goals,
It helps you grow, and makes you whole.

Is it important to have some time alone?
Or can we always just be on the go?
(Answer)
Without a doubt, it's a vital part,
To step back and look at your heart.
Spending too much time with others,
Can make us annoyed, even forget our mothers.
We all need a break, to appreciate,
The people we love, and elevate.

| When was the last time you were alone? | Kapan terakhir kali Anda sendirian? |
| audio | audio |
| Last night, I had come from a stressful day of work so I decided to stay in for the entire evening with some Netflix and hot tea. Although I’m kind of a social butterfly (a social person), I have come to enjoy nights in by myself from time to time. I think all of us need that as a balance. | Tadi malam, saya pulang dari hari kerja yang melelahkan jadi saya memutuskan untuk tinggal di rumah sepanjang malam dengan menonton Netflix dan minum teh panas. Meskipun saya agak seperti kupu-kupu sosial (orang yang suka bersosialisasi), saya mulai menikmati malam di rumah sendiri dari waktu ke waktu. Saya pikir kita semua membutuhkan itu sebagai keseimbangan. |
| What do you like to do when you are alone? | Apa yang Anda suka lakukan saat sendirian? |
| audio | audio |
| As I’m a tea addict, that’s my number one activity to do alone. Furthermore, I enjoy reading a book or a series on Netflix. I tend to get lost in (to become fully involved in) those two activities. Moreover, I enjoy taking a walk alone around town and people watching (observing strangers). | Karena saya kecanduan teh, itu adalah kegiatan nomor satu yang saya lakukan sendirian. Selain itu, saya menikmati membaca buku atau serial di Netflix. Saya cenderung tenggelam (terlibat sepenuhnya) dalam dua kegiatan tersebut. Selain itu, saya menikmati berjalan-jalan sendirian di sekitar kota dan mengamati orang (mengamati orang asing). |
| Do you wish to have more time alone? | Apakah Anda ingin memiliki lebih banyak waktu sendirian? |
| audio | audio |
| Definitely not. As I live alone in a studio apartment, I sometimes get lonely, so I take every opportunity to have social interactions to avoid sitting at home alone. I would consider myself a mixture between introvert and extrovert, but definitely leaning more towards extrovert. Although I definitely appreciate my time alone, I certainly don’t crave (have an urge to do) anymore. | Tentu saja tidak. Karena saya tinggal sendirian di apartemen studio, saya terkadang merasa kesepian, jadi saya memanfaatkan setiap kesempatan untuk berinteraksi sosial untuk menghindari duduk di rumah sendirian. Saya akan menganggap diri saya sebagai campuran antara introvert dan ekstrovert, tetapi pasti lebih condong ke arah ekstrovert. Meskipun saya sangat menghargai waktu sendirian saya, saya tentu tidak menginginkan (ingin melakukan) lebih banyak lagi. |

| Without a doubt! I think we all need some time alone for self-reflection (thinking about yourself and what you do). Furthermore, when we spend too much time with people, we tend to get annoyed with them, even take them for granted (not appreciate them) at times. With this said, we all need a break from people to remember just how great they are. | Tanpa diragukan lagi! Saya pikir kita semua membutuhkan waktu sendirian untuk introspeksi (berpikir tentang diri sendiri dan apa yang Anda lakukan). Selain itu, ketika kita menghabiskan terlalu banyak waktu dengan orang-orang, kita cenderung merasa jengkel dengan mereka, bahkan menganggap mereka remeh (tidak menghargai mereka) di beberapa waktu. Dengan ini dikatakan, kita semua membutuhkan istirahat dari orang-orang untuk mengingat betapa hebatnya mereka. |
