Be Yourself (Kun Anta ; English Translation)

In order to keep up with them, I imitated their looks and exterior

So I became someone else – just to boast

And I thought that through that I’d gained a fortune

But I found that I’d lost, for these are mere appearances

Chorus:

No, no,

We don’t need wealth to increase in beauty

Our essence is here, in our hearts it shines

No, no

We will not seek to please others with that which we deem unbefitting for ourselves

That is our beauty, rising and ascending above

Oh wo oh, oh wo oh..

Be yourself and you will increase in beauty

I accept people but I don’t imitate them

Except for what I agree with, to satisfy myself

I will just be myself, just the way I am, this is me

My conviction suffices, this is my certainty

(Chorus)

I’ll be what I please to be

I won’t seek their acceptance

I’ll be whom I love to be

Why would I care about their acceptance

What Makes You Beautiful

You're insecure

Don't know what for

You're turning heads when you walk through the door

Don't need make up

To cover up

Being the way that you are is enough

Everyone else in the room can see it

Everyone else but you

[Chorus]

Baby you light up my world like nobody else

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed

But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell

You don't know

Oh Oh

You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see

You'll understand why I want you so desperately

Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe

You don't know

Oh oh

You don't know you're beautiful

Oh oh

That what makes you beautiful

So c-come on

You got it wrong

To prove I'm right I put it in a song

I don't know why

You're being shy

And turn away when I look into your eyes

Everyone else in the room can see it

Everyone else but you

[Chorus]

Baby you light up my world like nobody else

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed

But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell

You don't know

Oh oh

You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see

You'll understand why I want you so desperately

Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe

You don't know

Oh oh

You don't know you're beautiful

Oh oh

That's what makes you beautiful

Baby you light up my world like nobody else

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed

But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell

You don't know

Oh Oh

You don't know you're beautiful

[Chorus]

Baby you light up my world like nobody else

The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed

But when you smile at the ground it aint hard to tell

You don't know

Oh oh

You don't know you're beautiful

If only you saw what I can see

You'll understand why I want you so desperately

Right now I'm looking at you and I can't believe

You don't know

Oh Oh

You don't know you're beautiful

Oh oh

You don't know you're beautiful

Oh oh

That's what makes you beautiful

Nothing much to elaborate.

Just wanna say, I think these two songs

bring almost the same messages.

I know most of the people will object my opinion.

Including my kak naqibah who loves Kun Anta very much.

Haha.

But who cares?

That's my opinion.

:D
