ALL FOR THE SAKE OF LOVE

What is the use of the whole world to praise me
When your mouth sneers at me
What’s in it for everyone to smile at me
If your face scowls at me

ALL FOR THE SAKE OF LOVE

 

Is my face like a demon?

So you turn away

Am I cold like ice?

So you look away

 

What is the use of the whole world to praise me

When your mouth sneers at me

What’s in it for everyone to smile at me

If your face scowls at me

 

All the poems I wrote

Just for you

Even if you deliberately tear it

Right in front of my nose

 

You call me a stone head

I am not afraid if you embarrassed me

In front of the public

Or even in front civitas academica

 

You should know

I do not want to be regret

Later, in old age, I did not meet

You are by my side

 

Lhokseumawe, yesterday.

About tengkuputeh

Cepat seperti angin // Tekun seperti hujan // Bergairah seperti api // Diam seperti gunung // Misterius seperti laut // Kejam seperti badai // Anggun seperti ngarai // Hening seperti hutan // Dalam seperti lembah // Lembut seperti awan // Tangguh seperti karang // Sederhana seperti debu // Menyelimuti seperti udara // Hangat seperti matahari // Luas seperti angkasa // Berserakan seperti debu //
