Sebab ini adalah kakiku

Kemana ku melangkah

Adalah kehendak diriku


Aku, aku tetap aku

Yang berjalan dengan fikiranku

Dengan otakku..
Aku, aku tetap aku

Yang berpikir dengan kepalaku

Dengan otakku


Aku.. aku.. aku.. aku…



ME

Mouths that keep gaping 
Spouting all the sermons 
Unnecessary... 
For these are my feet 
Where I go 
Is my will 

Me, I remain me 
Who walks with my mind
With my brain 
Me, I'm still me 
Who thinks with my head 
With my brain 

Me... me... me... me...

Fortunately the second single CEMBURU was more strong, and become the biggest hits of this album.

CEMBURU

Kuhempaskan napas panjang
Dan kupejamkan mataku
Namun bayangmu tak jua berlalu
Kubakar kebencianku
Namun tiada menolongku
Dan kuhidupkan keangkuhanku
Tuk melupakanmu..

Namun semua
Kian membangkitkan rinduku
Cemburu dan rasa takut
Akan kehilanganmu

Rindu kini menghapus benciku
Cinta membelengguku
Bahkan kepribadianku
Sungguh aku cinta kamu
Sungguh aku cemburu



JEALOUS

I let out a long breath
And I close my eyes
But your image will not go away
I burn my hatred
But it does not help me
And I keep my pride alive
To forget you

But all
Increasingly arouses my longing
Jealousy and fear
Of losing you

Longing now erases my hate
Love shackles me
Even my personality
Really I love you
How jealous I am

SELINTAS SUNYI

Angin malam yang membelai,
Menyentuh dedaunan jiwa
Yang bergetar dibalik jendela hati
Serasa kesunyian ini memikat diri

Ada suara yang memanggil mendesir
Diantara angin
Dan titik airmata berderai, menjelma
Dalam kerinduan ini

Bumi kini berdiam diri
Hanya kedambaan nan melintas
Memagut, membelai..
Kerinduan ini
Rindu padamu..


A LONELY MOMENT

The night breeze caressing,
Touching the leaves of soul
That shaking in the back of heart's window
This loneliness seems to alluring me

There is a voice called among the wind
And point of tears,
Incarnated in this longing

The earth is now silent
Only desire that passed
Embracing, stroking..
This longing, longing for you

Kini kita berdua
Berjanji untuk setia
Menuju hasrat dan cita
Tuk menempuh bahagia
Kau hadir membawa suka
Kau lepaskan semua duka
Jatuh cinta oh cinta
Aku dengan dirimu

Malam minggu pertama
Berdebar dada rasanya
Apalagi tuk mengatakan
Khayalan dan kata-kata
Tak kuingat apa-apa
Apa yang telah kubuat
Hanya bisikan manja dalam diri

Kini kita telah berdua
Dan saling membagi cinta
Satu bulan lamanya tak terasa
Hari-hari berganti
Cintapun kian bersemi
Melangkah menuju cita kian pasti

Mari kita bersama
Mari kita berdua
Melangkah menuju cita kian pasti

Ayunkan kedua tanganmu
Langkahkan senada irama
Goyangkan kedua kakimu
Bernyanyi, bercerita bersama



TOGETHER

Now we are both
Promise to be faithful
Toward desire and aspiration
To take happiness
You are here to bring joy
You let go of all the sorrows
Fall in love oh love
Me with you

First Saturday night
My heart is pounding
What more to say
Delusions and words
I don't remember anything
What I've done
Only the spoiled whisper of myself

Now we are together
And share our love
One month does not feel
The days are changing
Love is blossoming
Stepping towards the goal is increasingly certain

Let's be together
Let's be together
Stepping towards the goal is getting more and more certain

Swing your hands together
Step to the beat
Shake your legs
Singing, telling stories together

TARAGAK


Tabantang hijau sawah balanjang
Gumbalo badendang ateh pamatang
Basanda gurau sasamo gadang
Sajuak ayia nyo pincuran gadang

Gunuang Marapi nan jo Singgalang
Di sinan mandeh duduak tabayang
Taragak hati jo ranah minang
Awan bararak nan denai pandang

Alah di rancah taluak jo rantau
Antah pabilo musim ka barubah
Rambang patang datang manda yo
Namun badan ko mula raik juo

Jatuah badarai si ayia mato
Takana bundo hati ta ibo
Untuang malah kandak kuaso
Ta jajak juo ranah ta cinto

PESONA LELAKI

Sedikit anggukannya
Ketika berjumpa
Namun mampu membuat
Hatiku bergetar
Acuh nampaknya
Tapi dia sungguh aduhai

Dia memang pesona
Yang menyita mataku
Selalu menggemaskan setiap wanita
Acuh tampaknya
Tapi dia sungguh aduhai

Lihat tegar matanya
Bagai pribadinya
Pesona lirikannya
Aduh.. aduh.. aduh..



MANLY CHARM

A little nod
When we meet
But able to make
My heart flutters
Indifferent in appearance
But he's really gorgeous

He's indeed a charm
That catches my eye
Always adorable to every woman
Indifferent it seems
But he's really gorgeous

Look at the firmness of his eyes
Like his own
The charm of his glance
Ouch... ouch... ouch...

Producer : Rummy Azis
Label : Musica Studio's

Before releasing this RASA CINTAKU album, MAYANGSARI was known as one of the major singers in ‘malaysian’ slow rock genre, partly because the success of her duet with DEDDY Dores. But through this album, Mayang seem to want to change the way her sing to more pop, in other words such as go to 'first class' singer. So musicians such as DEWA BUJANA with his group GIGI, RYAN KYOTO, DONNY SUHENDRA, BUDI BIDHUN even INDRA LESMANA had worked on together in this album. The result is different from what she has been doing in her previous albums. Not in terms of songs and music that changed, Mayang’s appearance also changed. If previously identified with long black hair and look girly, then in this album Mayang appear with short hair, plus the writing on the cover only the name MAYANG without SARI. It's just that, to make the old fans of Mayang not surprised with her change, the first single of this album was selected too not so far from the previous Mayang songs. These tips were helpful. The album was very well received in the market. Even the next Mayang's albums were always similar with RASA CINTAKU. The other hits of this album are ADA RINDU and HARUSKAH KUBIARKAN.

Only to you I give my love

CINTA PUTIH

Mari kita jaga
Sebentuk cinta putih

Yang telah terbina

Sepenuhnya terjalin pengertian

Antara engkau dan aku


Masihlah panjang

Jalan hidup mesti ditempuh

Semoga tak lekang

Oleh waktu


Cukup bagiku hadirmu

Membawa cinta selalu

Lewat warna sikap 

Kasihpun kau ungkap (telah terjawab)


Jika kau bertanya

Sejauh mana cinta
 membuat bahagia
Sepenuhnya terimalah

Apa adanya dua beda menyatu


Saling mengisi

Tanpa pernah mengekang diri

Jadikan percaya yang utama


WHITE LOVE

Let's keep it 
A form of white love 
That has been built 
Fully intertwined understanding 
Between you and me 

There is still a long way to go 
The road of life must be traveled 
May it be timeless 
By time 

Your presence is enough for me 
Bringing love always 
Through the color of attitude 
Even your love reveals (has been answered) 

If you ask 
To what extent love makes happy 
Fully accept 
As it is, two differences merge 

Fill each other 
Without ever restricting yourself 
Make trust the main thing

LA SAMBA PRIMADONA

Dalam suatu pesta di malam ceria
Semuanya gembira

Menyanyi dan berdansa

Ku melangkah ke sana
Kuangkat kepala

Kumelirikkan mata

Agar semua pria tahu siapa

Aku... sang primadona


Lihatlah (lihat-lihat) padaku

Manisnya senyumku

Coba tengok langkahku

Semua membuat rindu

Membuat pria

Uuu... datang padaku

Dia memang dia

Mengaku jadi primadona

Dengan gaya yang sama

Hadir dalam setiap pesta


Ku memang primadona

Ku memang ratu pesta
o ya ya...


LA SAMBA PRIMA DONNA

At a party on a cheerful night 
Everyone is happy 
Singing and dancing
I step over there 
I lift my head 
I glance 
To let all the men know who I am 
I am... the prima donna

Look (look) at me 
The sweetness of my smile 
Take a look at my steps 
All make longing 
Make a man
Uuu... come to me 

She is, indeed she is
Claiming to be the prima donna 
With the same style 
Attending every party 

I am the prima donna 
I am the queen of the party o ya ya...

KLAK KLIK KLUK (CINTA PERTAMA)


Tak tuk tak tuk terdengar
Langkah berjalan
Di atas panggung busana
Aduhai gayanya..
Tampak serasi dengan busananya
Dan sungguh daku jadi suka padanya

Klak klik, klak klik, klak klik kluk
Kupotret dia dan kuberikan senyum
Dia pun tersenyum
Membuat hatiku bertambah suka

Akhirnya aku dapat
Berkenalan dengan dirinya
Lalu terus kucoba untuk dapat memilikinya

Dua bulan lamanya aku dekati dia
Dengan cinta membara
Dan dengan sejujurnya kukatakan
Aku cinta pada dirinya
Lalu dia berkata
Aku juga cinta pada dirimu
Cinta pertama...


CLACK CLICK CLACK (FIRST LOVE)

Tak tuk tak tak tak 
Sounds of step walking
On the fashion stage
What a style ...
Looks harmonious with her clothes
And I really like her

Clack click, clack click, clack click clack
I took a picture of her and gave her a smile
She smiled too
Making my heart grow fonder

I finally got
Get to know her
Then I kept trying to have her

For two months I approached her
With burning love
And I honestly said
I love her
Then she said
I love you too
First love...
