SENYUMAN RAMAH
(Friendly Smile)

Jika senyum ramah
seorang papa mampu
dengan mudah
Mengendalikan hati

Lalu mengapa
harus bertikai
Dengan senjata
Untuk menguasai yang lain

FRIENDLY SMILE

If a meager
friendly smiling gestures can
easily occupy
the hearts in control,

Then why
the need of fight
with guns
to subdue each others ?

RATUSAN TEMAN
(Friend Of Hundreds)

Seseorang...
Yang memandangku
nampak sepertimu

Seseorang...
Yang tersenyum manis
Nampak sepertimu

Selalu
Merasa
Kehilangan sesuatu

Seseorang...
Dirimu.
Dan kataku...
Ini dirimu...
Itu dirimu...
Di sini dirimu
Di sana dirimu...

Dan pada
Ini dan itu

Aku mendapat
Ratusan teman

something missing...
The one ...
You.

This is you...
That is you...
Here is you...
There is you...

And in
this and that
I became
Friend of hundreds

KEKUATAN DAMAI
(Peace Power)

Daripada
Meributkan rasa cintaku
Kepada pencipta damai
Bukankah lebih baik
Membuka hati mereka
Yang
Menjadi anak-anak
Adam dan Hawa
Dengan bangga menganggapku
Sebagai bagian keluarga semesta
Mereka
Dan menghargai kata-kata
Yang kutinggalkan
Dari lubuk hatiku

PEACE POWER

"Instead of
criticizing my love feelings
to the cause of peace
Isn’t it better
to open the hearts of those
who
being the children of
Eve and Adam
proudly consider me
as their own universal family member
and respect my words
omitted for them
from the core of my heart"

TIDAKKAH ANEH...?
(Isn't It Strange...?)

Saat terang kita bergegas
Menuju gelap
menyembunyikan diri
Dari semua orang
Bahkan diri kita sendiri

manusia malam
Berjalan dalam mimpi buruk
sembunyi dari yang tiada
Terbangun saat pagi
Dengan mata terbuka

ISN'T IT STRANGE...?

In daylight we hurry
towards the night
hiding who we truly are
From everyone
Even ourselves

People of the night
walking in nightmares
hiding from nothing
awake to the day
with open eyes

CINTA AKHIRI PERBEDAAN
(Love Ends Differences)

Adalah aku dan kamu
Yang mencari penawar
dahaga dari hati yang lapar
Berbagi pikiran yang sama
saling menghargai
Dicintai....
Bertarung layaknya manusia
Saat kau memandangku
Aku ingin berjuang
bagi harga diri wanita
Walaupun aku laki-laki

LOVE ENDS DIFFERENCES

Its me and you
who seek to quench
this thirst of hungry hearts
seeming the same in thoughts
respecting each other
Beloved....
struggling like a man
when you look at me
I want to fight
for women rights
though I am a man

WARNA KE-B
(The 8th Color)

Dalam lelap tidur
Kubermimpi

gambaran indah
Yang kupandang....

kuamati...

Warna indah bermunculan
kukira ada tujuh....

namun kuterkejut bukan main
Ada delapan yang tampak
Dan diantara semuanya
Akulah warna kedelapan

THE 8th COLOR

In sleep's depths
I dreamed...

Scenes of beauty
I gazed upon...

Staring...

Beauties of color appear
I think there are seven...

But to my great surprise
There are eight I see

and the eighth color
among them was me.

JIWA TAK BERWAJAH
(Faceless Soul)

'Mengapa aku...
Gadis impian?'

bilamana,

Dia bertanya..
Dengan senyum tak setuju

Aku buru-buru menggerutu
Dengan helaan nafas

'karena,
hanya kau seorang..
Yang hidup dalam diriku

Bagai jiwa tak berwajah'

FACELESS SOUL

'Why me....

Whenever,
she asks as..
with a critical smile

I abruptly murmur
in a deep sigh

'Because,
you are the one..
who's living inside me
like a faceless soul'

ILUSI MIMPI
(Illusive Dreams)

Saat kupejamkan mata
Aku dapat melihatmu
Seperti aku kembali hidup
Dalam impian yang kerap datang
Mereka menghantuiku
Dalam tidurku
Aku hidup kembali
Ketika kubuka mata
Aku jadi berkeping

karena impian
Yang bernaung
Jauh dalam
Kenanganku

ILLUSIVE DREAMS

when I close my eyes
I can see you
as I live again
in my illusive dreams
they haunt me
in my way to sleep
I live again
when I open my eyes
I go on to stray with
the dreams
that linger
deep in my
memories

LABEL PAKSAAN
(Acquired Label)

Menjadi diriku-
Anak adam
Ketika siang
Aku, berhasrat keluar
Dari rumahku
Mengejar
saudara sejagadku

Sial...,
kota lahirku
yang angkuh
mendadak mulai bergosip
aku 'seorang ateis' - menyebar!

ACQUIRED LABEL

Being I am -
a child of Adam
as on the day
I, intended to step out
from the door of my home
chasing out for
my global siblings;

Alas..,
the rigid beings of
my own birth town
suddenly started gossiping
I’m 'an atheist' - full grown!
