Abstract

Children’s songs function not only as entertainment but also as a communication medium that conveys messages and values through signs. Digital media enables classic children’s songs to be adapted, which may shift their meanings. This study examines the representation of meaning in the chorus of “Lihat Kebunku (Taman Bunga)” performed by Aku Jeje. It employs a constructivist paradigm, a descriptive qualitative approach with an interpretive model, textual analysis, and Roland Barthes’ semiotics, combined with Stuart Hall’s theory of representation. The chorus lyrics were collected through documentation and analyzed at three levels of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. Validity was ensured through theory triangulation, persistent observation, and referential adequacy. The findings show that, denotatively, the chorus depicts a single flower in a garden that disappears because someone takes it. Connotatively, the “flower in the garden of my heart” represents a beloved person and the experience of loss or heartbreak. At the level of myth, the lyrics reproduce a view of love as exclusive and possessive. These findings indicate a shift from the ecological meaning of the original song to a metaphor for romantic feelings. Adaptations of children’s songs in digital media therefore deserve critical attention.
