LOVE

SAJAK BUAT DIA 1


Bukan aku seorang penyanyi

Untukku dendangkan lagu-lagu sepi

(Sedih pilu)


Bukan pula aku seorang penyair

Untukku gubah kata-kata puitis

(puja rayu)


Bukan juga aku seorang pelukis

untukku coretkan warna-warna perasaanku

(tak menentu)


Aku hanya seorang perindu

yang hanya mampu berkirim salam di angin lalu

(buatmu).



A POEM FOR HIM 1


Too bad that I am not a singer

otherwise, I would sing those lonely songs

(sad emotion)


Neither am I a great poet

if it's so, I would compose some love sonnets

(pleading and worshipping)


Nor am I a great artist

or else, I would paint the colours of my heart on a canvas

(rickety)


I am just a poor dreamer

who keeps wishing that the wind

would whisper my love wishes

into your ears.

SAJAK BUAT DIA 2


Jika aku ini cermin

akan ku cermin ke dalam dirimu

untuk ku lihat hati budimu


Jika aku ini penyelam

akan ku selami lubuk hatimu

untuk ku ukur dalam kasihmu


Jika aku ini ikan

akan ku renangi lautan perasaanmu

untukku tahu jauh rindumu


Tapi aku hanyalah

seorang manusia sepi

yang setiap malam menunggu pagi

sambil bertanya pada diri

"Adakah matahari akan bersinar untukku lagi?"



A POEM FOR HIM 2


If I were a mirror

I would be able to reflect your inner thoughts

and I would know what's inside your mind


If I'm a diver

I would dive in the depth of your eyes

to find out how deep is your love for me


If I were a sea-creature

I would be roaming in the sea of your feelings

and see exactly how much you miss me


Unfortunately, I'm a plain loner

who would wait for the nights

to turn into days

and at the same time wondering

whether the sun would keep on shining

for me.

SAJAK BUAT DIA 3


Gembira

mendengar suaramu

di hujung sana

hati jadi lapang, riang,

dunia jadi terang, girang,

dan aku terus jiwang.



A POEM FOR HIM 3

So happy

to hear your voice

on the other side of line

my heart becomes light and cheerful

the world becomes bright and colourful

and I... have fallen deeper in love.
