The JOURNEY to the AFTERLIFE

I fantasize, when death comes. our souls are detached from the body and will leave the world to another dimension and we can not yet expect what will happen ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are only between

a world full of wind and empty world

 

We are only between

spirits who expect us and those who try to let us go

 

We are only between

in a world full of colors and gray worlds

 

we are only able to feel

destiny at work

 

we are only able to feel

with all sincerity

 

We only can

feel

without being able to do many things

 

we only can

feel.....

feel......

feel.....

 

feel.....

feel.....

 

feel.....

 

destiny that is at work ...

and the flowers fly on the grave

the fragrance scattered ....

fill the universe ...

towards eternity ...

journey to the afterlife

across the dark, terrifying and spooky

I boarded the ship, groaned

biting rock ...

biting rock ...

I saw the mainland away ..

blackened on the horizon ...

 

I have a face ..

exposed to other sun ..

and the stars that float in the ocean of the universe ..

 

Oh ..., trip to the afterlife ..

cross the dark, great and spooky ..

with always in the piercing sense of horror ..

it turns out that death is not the end of a story ......

I'M BACK *

 

I'm back. Many foreigners:

water flowing colors, ships, eagles

And clouds resting on the other equator;

 

the taste of the sea has changed and I have a face

also illuminated by the sun

other.

 

Only

The stillness remains.

More deserted me on the twist of the road;

more quiet anyway when between

who hopes and who takes off.

 

The left ear is still turned

drawn anxiously intermittently as bright as ever

thunder.

 

1949

translated from the poem " Aku berada Kembali " Chairil Anwar "

GARDEN of EDEN

 

Muted color

On darkest day

There was a light

to show the way

 

In dreary towns

My eyes were bound

To the misty lights

Up on the cloud

 

What is that phenomenon?

Where did it go?

The place we are seeking

We shall never know.

 

As our eyes droop down

And our smiles go flat,

It is easy to see

That we shall never go back

 

To that muted color

On that darkest day

Where that light to guide us

Showed the way

 

Immortality is over

We are now doomed

To succumb to our future

As our destinies loomed.

 

As we were shot down

To the pits of Tartarus

My fate was no longer

Ambiguous

 

We were forgone

Forever to roam

The pitch black world

Always to moan

 

That muted color

On darkest day

Was unfortunately one

To never stay
