Lirik Lagu Hallelujah

Untuk kali ini saya akan post lirik lagu Hallelujah yang  banyak dikenal oleh banyak orang karya Leonard Cohen pada tahun 1984

I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this: the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe I've been here before
I know this room, I've walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What's real and going on below
But now you never show it to me, do you?
And remember when I moved in you
The holy dark was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a god above
And all I ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
It's not a cry you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Untuk pengertian tentang lagu ini tergantung bagaimana kita mendeskripsikannya terhadap pribadi masing-masing. Banyak yang memiliki pengertian tentang lagu ini seperti tentang rohani ataupun tentang duniawi.

Tapi bagi saya sendiri lagu ini memiliki pengertian tentang cinta dimana bentuk cinta ini bisa mendeskripsikan tentang hubungan antara manusia dengan Tuhan ataupun manusia dengan manusia. Walaupun menurut saya pribadi lebih ke manusia dengan Tuhan sama seperti Kidung Agung di dalam Alkitab. Lagu ini menceritakan bagaimana kesetiaan cinta kasih Tuhan yang setia pada manusia dimana pada zaman ini manusia yang mengalami jatuh bangun dalam hidupnya jatuh kedalam dosa. Tapi dia tetap memperhatikan manusia.
