<![CDATA[This study examines the lexical meaning and illocutionary acts in the lyrics of Panji Sakti, which are filled with emotion and metaphor. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach and note-taking techniques to analyze each line of the lyrics based on lexical categories such as metaphor, hyponymy, hypernymy, synonymy, ambiguity, and collocation. In addition, the classification of illocutionary acts is carried out based on Searle's theory. The findings show that metaphors dominate, especially the image of the soul as a "flower" which symbolizes vulnerability and the spiritual side. Collocation phrases such as "didera hujan" (rain) and "dihempas angin" (wind) create images of trials, while ambiguity is seen in the expression "dicekam cerita" (stranglehold on story). Hyponymy and hypernymy are found in "bunga frangipani" (fringe flower) and "semesta" (semesta), while synonymy is found in the word "mengingat" (remembering), which has the same meaning as "mengenang" (reminiscent). The illocutionary analysis shows that assertive speech acts, expressive in the context of love, longing, and spiritual devotion dominate, and there are also commissive acts related to the commitment to remember. The combination of lexical and illocutionary analysis shows the speaker's inner journey revealed through rich language and pragmatic functions.]]>
