Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
– Tas sakola di leungeun, manéhna ninggalkeun imah isuk-isuk
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
– Ngucapkeun salam ku seuri anu teu aya pikiran
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
– Kuring ningali manéhna indit jeung gelombang nu well-dipikawanoh sedih
And I have to sit down for a while
– Jeung kuring kudu diuk turun pikeun bari
The feeling that I’m losing her forever
– Rasa nu kuring keur kaleungitan nya salawasna
And without really entering her world
– Jeung tanpa bener ngasupkeun dunya nya
I’m glad whenever I can share her laughter
– Bungah iraha kuring bisa babagi seuri nya
That funny little girl
– Gadis leutik nu lucu
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
I try to capture every minute
– Kuring nyoba nangkep unggal menit
The feeling in it
– Rasa nu aya di jerona
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
Do I really see what’s in her mind?
– Naha kuring bener-bener ningali naon anu aya dina pipikiranana?
Each time I think I’m close to knowing
– Unggal waktu kuring mikir kuring deukeut nyaho
She keeps on growing
– Manéhna terus tumuwuh
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
– Saré di panon urang, nya jeung kuring di méja sarapan
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
– Bieu hudang, kuring ngantep waktu berharga balik ku
Then when she’s gone, there’s that odd melancholy feeling
– Tapi bila dia dah takde, ada rasa melankolis yang aneh-aneh ini
And a sense of guilt I can’t deny
– Dan rasa kesalahan yang tak bisa ku denari
What happened to the wonderful adventures
– Naon anu lumangsung ka petualangan éndah
The places I had planned for us to go?
– Tempat-tempat anu kuring rencanakeun pikeun urang angkat?
(Slipping through my fingers all the time)
– (Dialihkeun ti jari kuring sepanjang waktos)
Well, some of that we did, but most we didn’t
– Sababaraha urang ngalakukeun, tapi lolobana urang teu
And why, I just don’t know
– Tapi kenapa aku tak tahu
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
I try to capture every minute
– Kuring nyoba nangkep unggal menit
The feeling in it
– Rasa nu aya di jerona
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
Do I really see what’s in her mind?
– Naha kuring bener-bener ningali naon anu aya dina pipikiranana?
Each time I think I’m close to knowing
– Unggal waktu kuring mikir kuring deukeut nyaho
She keeps on growing
– Manéhna terus tumuwuh
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
– Sakapeung kuring hayang kuring bisa freeze gambar
And save it from the funny tricks of time
– Jeung nyalametkeun tina trik lucu waktu
Slipping through my fingers
– Melepas jari ku
Slipping through my fingers all the time
– Melepas jari ku sepanjang masa
Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
– Tas sakola di leungeun, manéhna ninggalkeun imah isuk-isuk
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
– Ngucapkeun salam ku seuri anu teu aya pikiran
