Two Pieces Of Poems

0 Comments
Here i am
Sitting and talking in a dim room; Not too dark
With a faint orange lamp that illuminates in every corner
Not too bright

Here i am 
Sitting and enjoying a sinful dish
With the main course; A plate of gratification
And with the dessert; A bowl of sorrow


...


Disinilah aku
Duduk bercengkrama di ruangan redup; Tidak begitu gelap
Dengan lampu jingga samar yang menyinari ditiap sudut
Tidak terlalu terang

Disinilah aku
Duduk menikmati hidangan penuh dosa
Dengan menu utamanya; Sepiring gratifikasi
Dan dengan hidangan penutup; Semangkuk penyesalan


...


In a quarter of the night
After tasting a sinful dish
I met with an old uncle
Decorated with sweat on his murky forehead

The old uncle taught me one thing
That nice looks aren't necessarily good
While bad looks aren't necessarily bad
And kindness cannot be measured by how much riches is owned

To the old uncle
Thank you for teaching me one thing that so important
Later, your child will be wise; Like you
I thought in a silence


...


Pada seperempat malam
Sehabis mencicipi hidangan yang penuh dosa
Bertemulah aku pada seorang paman tua
Dihiasi peluh di dahi yang keruh

Si paman tua itu mengajarkan satu hal
Bahwa penampilan elok belum tentu baik
Sedangkan penampilan buruk belum tentu buruk
Serta kebaikan tidak dapat diukur dari seberapa banyak harta yang dimiliki

Kepada paman tua
Terimakasih telah mengajarkan ku satu hal penting
Kelak anakmu akan bijaksana; seperti dirimu
Pikir ku dalam hening
