this journey begins
from the tears that fall in the pool
and picked up the sun

buried in the clouds
until the wind tempts
until the dry grass asks

say hello, said lightning
in a slow drizzle
wet on dry earth, your tears fall in the pool

HUJAN

perjalanan ini dimulai
dari airmata yang jatuh di kolam
dan dipungut cahaya matahari

disemayamkan di awan
hingga angin menggoda
hingga rumput kering meminta

ucapkan salam itu, ujar petir
pada gerimis perlahan
membasah di bumi kering, airmatamu jatuh di kolam
