Iwan Fals - Ethiopia - перевод текста песни на английский

Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Ethiopia




Ethiopia
Ethiopia
Dengar rintihan berjuta kepala
Hear the groans of millions of heads
Waktu lapar menggila
When hunger drives them crazy
Hamparan manusia tunggu mati
An expanse of humanity waiting to die
Nyawa tak ada arti
Life is meaningless
Kering-kerontang meradang
Parched and inflamed
Entah sampai kapan
I don't know how long
Datang tikam nurani
It will take for my conscience to catch up
Selaksa doa penjuru dunia
A myriad of prayers from around the world
Mengapa tak rubah bencana
Why don't they change the disaster?
Menjerit Afrika
Africa is screaming
Mengerang Ethiopia
Ethiopia is moaning
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Derap langkah sang penggali kubur
The footsteps of the gravedigger
Angkat yang mati dengan kelingking
Lifting the dead with their little finger
Parade murka bocah petaka
A parade of the wrath of the child of disaster
Tak akan lenyap kian menggema
It will not disappear, it will only echo louder
Napas orang-orang di sana
The breath of the people there
Merobek telinga
Tears our ears
Telanjangi kita
Exposes us
Lalat-lalat berdansa cha-cha-cha
Flies dance the cha-cha
Berebut makan dengan mereka
Scrambling to eat with them
Tangis bayi di tetek ibunya
A baby crying at its mother's breast
Keringkan air mata dunia
Dry up the tears of the world
Obrolan kita di meja makan
Our chatter at the dinner table
Tentang mereka yang kelaparan
About those who are starving
Lihat sekarat di layar TV
Watching them die on the TV screen
Antar kita pergi ke alam mimpi
Sends us off to dreamland
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Di sana terlihat ribuan burung nazar
There you can see thousands of vultures
Terbang di sisi iga-iga yang keluar
Flying around the exposed ribs
Jutaan orang memaki takdirnya
Millions of people curse their fate
Jutaan orang mengutuk nasibnya
Millions of people curse their destiny
Jutaan orang marah
Millions of people are angry
Jutaan orang tak bisa berbuat apa-apa
Millions of people can't do anything
Setiap detik selalu saja ada yang merintih
Every second, someone is always moaning
Setiap menit selalu saja ada yang mengerang
Every minute, someone is always groaning
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Ethiopia, Ethiopia
Aku dengar jeritmu dari sini
I hear your screams from here
Aku dengar
I hear you
Aku dengar tangismu dari sini
I hear your cries from here
Aku dengar
I hear you
Namun
However
Aku hanya bisa mendengar
All I can do is listen
Aku hanya bisa sedih
All I can do is be sad
Hitam kulitmu
Your skin is black
Sehitam nasibmu, kawan
As black as your fate, my friend
Waktu kita asyik makan
While we are eating so well
Waktu kita asyik minum
While we are drinking so well
Mereka haus
They are thirsty
Mereka lapar
They are hungry
Mereka lapar
They are hungry
Mereka lapar
They are hungry
