Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Emak

Emak

Tanpa engkau
Sedikit pun tiada artinya aku
Bagiku kau api
Yang berikan hangat begitu kuat
Pada beku nadi

Tiada dua
Engkau hadirkan cinta tak berakhir
Takkan pernah mampu
Kulukis putihmu lewat lagu
Maafkanlah aku

Bagai bening mata air
Memancar tak henti
Mungkin masihlah teramat kurang

Bagai sinar matahari
Yang tak kenal bosan
Berikan terangnya pada kita
Kaulah segalanya

Hanya ini
Yang sanggup kutulis untukmu, bunda
Jangan tertawakan
Simpan dalam hatimu yang sejuk
Rimbun akan doa

Kau berikan semuanya
Yang bisa kau beri
Tanpa setitik pun harap balas

Kau kisahkan segalanya
Tanpa ada duka
Walaupun air matamu tumpah
Tenggelamkan dunia

Bagai sinar matahari
Yang tak kenal bosan
Berikan terangnya pada jiwa

Kau berikan semuanya
Yang bisa kau beri
Tanpa setitik pun harap balas
Agungnya engkau

Bagai luas laut biru
Batinmu untukku
Selalu ada tempat 'tuk resahku

Bagai bening mata air
Memancar tak henti
Sirami jiwaku waktu kecewa
Datang menggoda

Mother

Without you
Every part of me is worthless
For me you're a fire
That gives a powerful warmth
To a frozen vein

There's no other
You're the presence of an eternal love
I'll never be able
To paint your whiteness with a song
Forgive me

Like the clear water of a spring
Flowing endlessly
Maybe it's still too little

Like the rays of the sun
That knows no boredom
Give its light to us
You're everything

This is the only thing
That I can write for you, Mother
Don't laugh at me
Keep it in your cool heart
Bushy with prayers

You give your all
That you can give
Without a single drop of hope in return

You tell me everything
Without any sorrow
Even though your tears fall
Drowning the world

Like the rays of the sun
That knows no boredom
Giving its light to the soul

You give your all
That you can give
Without a single drop of hope in return
You are magnificent

Like the vastness of the blue sea
Your heart is for me
There's always a place for my worries

Like the clear water of a spring
Flowing endlessly
Watering my soul in times of disappointment
Coming to tempt
