<![CDATA[This study aims to describe the language style and educational values ??in the lyrics of Nadin Amizah's Selamat Ulang Tahun album and its use as Indonesian language teaching materials in high school. The study used a qualitative approach with a content analysis design. Data in the form of words, phrases, clauses, and lines from ten songs in the album, collected through documentation, observation, and interviews, were then analyzed using the Krippendorff content analysis model. The results showed that the song lyrics contain language styles of comparison, opposition, repetition, satire, and affirmation, with personification and simile as the most dominant forms. In addition, religious, moral, social, and cultural educational values ??were found that reflect an attitude of gratitude, responsibility, care, the process of maturity, and cultural preservation. These findings indicate that song lyrics not only have aesthetic value but also function as a medium for character building. Therefore, the Selamat Ulang Tahun album is worthy of being used as an alternative Indonesian language teaching material in high school because it supports poetry learning, increases literary appreciation, critical thinking skills, and strengthens character education according to the Merdeka Curriculum.]]>
