There is Nothing

TAKADASATU PUN

Dan musik pun tak lagi merdu disaat regean hujan belum juga reda

Dan alunan syair- syair lagu pun tak lagi indah di telinga sang bumi

Ketika sang jagat mulai angkuh dengan keperkasaannya

Tergeletak layu mawar di hati

Laksana rembulan tergilas surya

Bekukan niat ‘ntuk ber-sua

Ribuan juta bintang menjuntai tangan berhasrat menari dimalam jula

Menikmati fenomena angkasa dan mabuk bersama anggur jagat bermesra

bersama gulita

Berdansa dalam panggung awan dan disinari lampu bintang

Dari arah pintu angin utara ia menjelma

Sesosok mawar jingga tertusuk duri rana duka

Terbawa harum hembusan angin

Melanglang layang tak tentu arah

Semburat kata menyesal terngiang kembali

Adalah sisa sebuah jelmaan kata.

Tanpa ada yang bisa mengubahnya kembali

Dan jika ada yang berkata hari ini bumi dalam bahagia maka akulah alam dalam

keadaan luka.

dEDY iBRAJOEM mOESA

English Version:

There is Nothing

And music is no longer beautiful when the sound ofrain not yet ends

And the series oflyrics do not sound beautifully through the earth’s ear

When the world becomes pround of its power

The rose lies down and wilts in the heart

Like the moon ground down by the sun

Freezing the wish to meet

Thousands million of star dangles hands arouse to dance in the night dangling

Enjoy the space phenomenon and got drunk with wines all over the world to intimate

with darkness

From the door of the North He assumes a form

A piece of bright orange rose bitten by a sorrowful thorn

Brought by the fragrance of the wind

Roaming without any destination

A disperse of regretful words heard again

is as residues of the converted word

Without anything can change it back

And if someone says todaythe earth is in happiness then it is me who is I am the nature

in the injured condition
