Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Ibu

Ibu

Ribuan kilo jalan yang kau tempuh
Lewati rintang untuk aku, anakmu
Ibuku sayang, masih terus berjalan
Walau tapak kaki penuh darah, penuh nanah

Seperti udara
Kasih yang engkau berikan
Tak mampu kumembalas, Ibu
Ibu

Ingin kudekap
Dan menangis di pangkuanmu
Sampai aku tertidur
Bagai masa kecil dulu

Lalu doa-doa
Baluri sekujur tubuhku
Dengan apa membalas, Ibu?
Ibu

Ribuan kilo jalan yang kau tempuh
Lewati rintang untuk aku, anakmu
Ibuku sayang, masih terus berjalan
Walau tapak kaki penuh darah, penuh nanah

Seperti udara
Kasih yang engkau berikan
Tak mampu kumembalas, Ibu
Ibu

Mother

Thousands of miles you walked
Overcoming obstacles for me, your son
My dear mother, you keep walking
Even though your feet are covered in blood and pus

Like air
The love you give me
I can't repay you, Mother
Mother

I want to hold you
And cry in your lap
Until I fall asleep
Like when I was a child

Then your prayers
Cover my whole body
How can I repay you, Mother?
Mother

Thousands of miles you walked
Overcoming obstacles for me, your son
My dear mother, you keep walking
Even though your feet are covered in blood and pus

Like air
The love you give me
I can't repay you, Mother
Mother
