Berikut adalah Lirik dari lagu berjudul Mother Tongue yang dibawakan oleh Stephanie Poetri.
Verse :
It’s my mother’s language..
It’s my mother tongue..
I don’t speak it perfect
And that makes me dumb.. mm..
First to lose the accent..
Last to get the joke..
What’s the word for having nowhere to go..
Pre Chorus :
And it’s always in the back of my mind
Or on the tip of my tongue..
Chorus :
Ooh..ooh..
If it’s hard to read
It’s just poetry..
Ooh..ooh..ooh..
That’s just how I speak
Ini puisi..ku..
Dari dulu aku tahu
That I sound nothing,
Nothing like you..
So they laugh at me
At my poetry..
Verse :
It’s my fathers’ lessons..
From his fathers hurt..
Try to disagree but
I can’t find the words.. (aaah..)
It’s pain that’s in the silence..
The tears that speak for me..
(speak for me..)
What’s the word for all that’s
Lost in between.. (ooh..)
Pre Chorus :
And it’s always in the back of my mind
Or on the tip of my tongue..
Swear that I was fluent when I was young
Now I can’t even write you a song..
Chorus :
Ooh..ooh..
If it’s hard to read
It’s just poetry..
Ooh..ooh..ooh..
That’s just how I speak
Ini puisi..ku..
Dari dulu aku tahu
That I sound nothing,
Nothing like you..
So they laugh at me
At my poetry..
Outro :
Ah..ah.. ah..ah..
It’s just poetry..
Ooh..ah.. ah..
It’s just poetry..
It’s just poetry..
