Yang pertama adalah...
Bridge Over Troubled Water
by. Simon & Garfunkel
When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all
I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

You've Got a Friend
by. Carole King
When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a FRIEND...

Perlu terjemahan untuk kedua lagu tersebut? Aku rasa gak karena udah jelas banget...
2 lagu yang sangat uplifting dan punya powerful lyrics... mengingatkan terus bahwa manusia tidak bisa hidup sendiri, bahwa manusia butuh kehadiran sahabat dalam hidupnya, bahwa setiap orang di dunia ini, pasti punya mereka yang perduli dan mengasihi dan siap sedia untuk berada di sisi saat keadaan suka ataupun duka... mereka yang bisa seperti itu adalah mereka yang Tuhan sediakan sebagai SAHABAT SEJATI...
Duh kalo denger palagi nyanyiin dua lagu ini bisa langsung jadi emosional hehehe... karena bicara banyak tentang pengalaman hidup. Yang jelas, buat yang belum pernah denger... coba cari deh, karena bagus banget. Buat yang udah tau, coba denger lagi.... dan ingatlah pesan yang ingin disampaikan kedua lagu ini...
Jadi posting lagu ini karena terinspirasi sebuah tulisan kenalan di Twitter... mengingatkan mengenai makna dari persahabatan dan sosok sahabat sejati. Berikut juga adalah beberapa quote (sumber? Uncle Google... who else?! hahaha) seputar persahabatan...
"Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart."
“When it hurts to look back, and you're scared to look ahead, you can look beside you and your best friend will be there.”
"If I had one gift that I could give you, my friend, it would be the ability to see yourself as others see you, because only then would you know how extremely special you are." ~B.A. Billingsly
"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out." ~Walter Winchell
"A best friend shares the good times and help you out by listening during the bad times."
"Best friend is someone who knows all about you and loves you anyway."
"A true friend is someone you can disagree with and still remain friends.If not, they weren’t true friends in the first place."
"True friends are very difficult to find, hard to leave, and impossible to forget."
"To have a good friend is one of the highest delights in life; to be a good friend is one of the noblest and most difficult undertakings."
"A true friend is one who knows all about you and likes you anyway." ~Christi Mary Warner
"What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies." ~Aristotle
"A friend hears the song in my heart and sings it to me when my memory fails."
"Every man rejoices twice when he has a partner in his joy. He who shares tears with us wipes them away. He divides them in two, and he who laughs with us makes the joy double." ~Bishop Fulton J. Sheen
"A true friend is a treasure to one's heart, a blessing to one's soul and a priceless masterpiece to one's life... Because a true friend is like a precious porcellain, you need to keep rubbing it so that it won't lose its shines, but if you rub it too hard it might break apart... Its value increases with age, so as the years go by, it can be something you can brag about and be proud of... because it is truly a rare masterpiece given from Heaven to all human, but only few managed to cherish it..." ~Furede Riko
Semoga tulisan ini jadi berkat buat semua orang...
Peace for y'all
