A cherry bud

Shivering alone in its stem

- where are you, spring?

~~~

Sebuah kuncup sakura

Menggigil sendirian di tangkainya

- dimana kau, musim semi?

a silent shivering night

inside cardboard shelters

- joy to the world?

~~~

menggigil di malam yang kudus

di dalam rumah-rumah kardus

- bersukacitakah dunia?

Melewati Sungai Suimon
Daun kesamak melambai
- dalam perjalanan melintasi samudara

~~~

Passing through Suimon River
Persimmon leaves wave
- on a journey across the ocean

~~~

Suimon o/ kuguri kaki no ha/ taikai e

(thank you to a friend for the Japanese translation)

kau bilang zaa zaa

aku bilang tik tik tik

- andai saja bicaraku seperti hujan

~~

you say zaa zaa

I say pitter patter

- if only my words came like rain drops

berhenti, menatap langit pekat

disela gegas ratusan pejalan

sepi mengiris-iris jiwa

~~~

pausing to gaze at the thick dark sky

among hundreds of rushing commuter

loneliness cuts through the soul

berderap, bergegas

menyongsong hari

- di langit seekor gagak terbahak

~~~

marching, rushing

seizing the day

- up above a crow burst into laughter

hujan

mengantar turun rasa

menjemput naik asa

~~~

rain-

descending feelings

raising hopes

langit merah bata

- di sela rimbunan ilalang

adzan menggema

~~

a brick red sky

- between the lushing reeds

echoes the call for prayers

bumi basah kuyup

sebarkan aroma tanah

-bau kehidupan

~~

the earth drenches

diffuses the aroma of soil

- the scent of life
