The Song in English

English Lyrics


This journey is felt so sad

You should be sitting Besides me

Many stories that you should see on the dry ground of stones
My body is shaken slammed by stones on the street
My heart is thrilled when I saw dry on the grass

This journey is like a witness
A liitle Shepherd cried in sadness

My friend, just hear what his answer
When I asked him why he cried
His father and mother were long died swallowed by disaster on this land

When I came in front of ocean
I told the news to everything, to corals, to waves, and to the sun
But everything is just silent, and everything is just mute
It leaves me alone standing still saw the sky

Maybe on there, there’s the answer
Why on my land ocurred disaster and tragedy
Maybe God is bored seeing our whim that always making sins and proud with our sins
Or nature no longer want be friends with us
Maybe we can asked to that dancing grass

Indonesian Lyrics

Perjalanan ini
Terasa sangat menyedihkan
Sayang engkau tak duduk
Disampingku kawan

Banyak cerita
Yang mestinya kau saksikan
Di tanah kering bebatuan

Tubuhku terguncang
Dihempas batu jalanan
Hati tergetar menatap
kering rerumputan

Perjalanan ini pun
Seperti jadi saksi
Gembala kecil
Menangis sedih ...

Kawan coba dengar apa jawabnya
Ketika di kutanya mengapa
Bapak ibunya tlah lama mati
Ditelan bencana tanah ini

Sesampainya di laut
Kukabarkan semuanya
Kepada karang kepada ombak
Kepada matahari

Tetapi semua diam
Tetapi semua bisu
Tinggal aku sendiri
Terpaku menatap langit

Barangkali di sana
ada jawabnya
Mengapa di tanahku terjadi bencana

Mungkin Tuhan mulai bosan
Melihat tingkah kita
Yang selalu salah dan bangga
dengan dosa-dosa
Atau alam mulai enggan
Bersahabat dengan kita
Coba kita bertanya pada
Rumput yang bergoyang
