Nyanyian Selamat Datang

musim angin yang bergelayut di telinga
telah berlalu. berlari dari waktu.
bunga mawar mekar, daun ingatan di kepalamu
semakin hijau.
"kita serupa batang yang bergoyang
bercokol di tanah, tempat atap rumah
kita didirikan. dari balik matahari
dan sinarnya yang dibawa udara
musim angin akan dikenang"

sebab kenapa
di bumi kita yang belum cukup tua
untuk kakek kita
merasa bermanja-manja pada ibu bapak kita
minta digendong dibawa ke sana kemari
"saudara sayang
mari tidur siang
malam ini ada pesta di ladang
mawar akan mekar
musim angin akan datang di pelupuk mata
ibu bapak kamu dan aku
mesti bergadang, masak udang capit pedas
cumi goreng bumbu syomai

yang paling penting
nila dan tujuh loki arak dari pohon aren di hutan
yang bersebelah dengan bilah pengasah parang
penebang kayu kita"

atap kita akan tetap berdiri
meneduhi dari waktu tiba matahari
yang tembus pandang.
nyanyian kita
akan tetap dinamai selamat datang
kepada musim angin dan mawar yang
akan mekar



--Sekayu, '10

Puisi Terjemahan William Wordsworth - I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud

Hari ini, saya mencoba lagi menerjemahkan sebuah sajak berjudul I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud yang ditulis oleh William Wordsworth. Selamat membaca kawan! Semoga apa yang kita baca hari ini, membuat kita merasa penuh dan bahagia.  *** Umpama Segumpal Awan Aku Berkelana Aku berkelana umpama segumpal awan Yang melayang di ketinggian melampaui lembah dan bukit, Ketika tak sengaja kudapati sejauh mata memandang, Sehamparan bunga-bunga daffodil; Di dekat danau, di bawah rimbun pepohonan, Bunga-bunga daffodil melambai dan menari dikibaskan angin. Tak henti-hentinya laksana bintang-gemintang yang berkilatan Dan mengerjap di keluasan bima sakti, Bintang-gemintang itu, meregang dalam lintasan tanpa batas Di sepanjang tepian danau yang luas: Sekilas kusaksikan berpuluh ribu, Bunga-bunga daffodil saling beradu lewat tarian yang begitu lincah. Ombak di sebelahnya menggulung dan pecah; namun bunga-bunga daffodil Menghempaskan kilauan ombak itu dalam sukacita: Seorang penyair menjumpai dirinya te...

Let's Take Care of Ourselves

I found out I enjoy munching sweet snacks. I wasn't a big fan of it, but lately each time I tasted cookies, banana fritters, or other Indonesia sweet snacks, mouthwatering was the first impression my brain translated. Until I tried to neutralize one with sugar free tea, it helped me not to feel guilty a lot. It was a bit uneasy to control the intake since the works sometimes overwhelmed me. My number one assignment now is not to avoid the stress, but to regulate the stress. It's been a long time I didn't have respiratory system problems since the COVID era, now it seemed to keep coming regularly especially when I ate spicy food. It would provoke the shortness of breath and sore throat that led to asthma. Even when I had to rest at night, I didn't sleep tight. I tried to consume more of protein from red meat in particular, it still seemed hard to maintain the health nowadays. Only Allah would take care of me after I attempted my utmost to take a good care of myself. Insy...
