Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Semoga Kau Tak Tuli Tuhan

Semoga Kau Tak Tuli Tuhan

Begitu halus tutur katamu
Seolah lagu termerdu
Begitu indah bunga-bungamu
Di atas karya sulam itu
Tampilkan kebajikan seorang ibu

Dengarlah detak jantung benihku
Yang kutanam di rahimmu
Seakan pasrah menerima
Semua warna yang kita punya
Segala rasa yang kita bina

Kuharap kesungguhanmu
Kaitkan jiwa bagai sulam di karya itu
Kuharap keikhlasanmu
Sirami benih yang kutabur di tamanmu

Oh jelas, rakit pagar semakin kuat
Tak goyah, walau diusik unggas

Pintaku pada Tuhan mulia
Jauhkan sifat yang manja
Bentuklah segala warna jiwanya
Di antara lingkup manusia
Di arena yang bau busuknya luka

Bukakan mata pandang dunia
Beri watak baja padanya
Kalungkan tabah kala derita
Semoga kau tak tuli Tuhan
Dengarlah pinta kami sebagai orang tuanya

Kuharap kesungguhanmu
Kaitkan jiwa bagai sulam di karya itu
Kuharap keikhlasanmu
Sirami benih yang kutabur di tamanmu

Oh jelas, rakit pagar semakin kuat
Tak goyah, walau diusik unggas

May You Not Be Deaf, God

Your words are so gentle
Like the sweetest of songs
Your flowers are so beautiful
On that embroidered masterpiece
Displaying the virtues of a mother

Listen to the heartbeat of my seed
That I have planted in your womb
As if surrendering to accept
All the colors we have
All the feelings we build

I hope your sincerity
Will connect our souls like the embroidery on that artwork
I hope your devotion
Will water the seeds I sow in your garden

Oh, clearly, build a fence that is strong
Unwavering, even when disturbed by birds

I pray to the glorious Lord
Keep away the nature of being spoiled
Shape all the colors of his soul
Among the human sphere
In an arena reeking of wounds

Open his eyes to see the world
Give him a character of steel
Bestow steadfastness during adversity
May you not be deaf, God
Hear our plea as his parents

I hope your sincerity
Will connect our souls like the embroidery on that artwork
I hope your devotion
Will water the seeds I sow in your garden

Oh, clearly, build a fence that is strong
Unwavering, even when disturbed by birds
