Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Isi Rimba Tak Ada Tempat Berpijak

Isi Rimba Tak Ada Tempat Berpijak

Raung buldozer gemuruh pohon tumbang
Berpadu dengan jerit isi rimba raya
Tawa kelakar badut-badut serakah
Tanpa hph berbuat semaunya
Lestarikan alam hanya celoteh belaka
Lestarikan alam mengapa tidak dari dulu...
Oh mengapa...
Oh... oh... ooooo...
Jelas kami kecewa
Menatap rimba yang dulu perkasa
Kini tinggal cerita
Pengantar lelap si buyung
Bencana erosi selalu datang menghantui
Tanah kering kerontang
Banjir datang itu pasti
Isi rimba tak ada tempat berpijak lagi
Punah dengan sendirinya akibat rakus manusia
Lestarikan hutan hanya celoteh belaka
Lestarikan hutan mengapa tidak dari dulu saja
Oh... oh... ooooo...
Jelas kami kecewa
Mendengar gergaji tak pernah berhenti
Demi kantong pribadi
Tak ingat rejeki generasi nanti
Bencana erosi selalu datang menghantui
Tanah kering kerontang
Banjir datang itu pasti
Isi rimba tak ada tempat berpijak lagi
Punah dengan sendirinya akibat rakus manusia

The Jungle Is No Longer a Place to Stand

The roar of the bulldozer and the crashing of trees
Blends with the screams of the jungle's inhabitants
The greedy clowns laugh
Without a care, they do as they please
Preserving nature is just empty talk
Why didn't you preserve nature before…
Oh, why…
Oh… oh… ooooo…
It's clear we're disappointed
To see the jungle that once stood so strong
Now just a story
A lullaby for the sleeping giant
The threat of erosion always haunts us
The land is dry and barren
Floods are inevitable
There's no place left to stand in the jungle
It's vanished on its own, thanks to the greed of humanity
Preserving the forest is just empty talk
Why didn't you preserve the forest before?
Oh… oh… ooooo…
It's clear we're disappointed
To hear the saws that never stop
For the sake of personal gain
They don't remember the future generations' fortune
The threat of erosion always haunts us
The land is dry and barren
Floods are inevitable
There's no place left to stand in the jungle
It's vanished on its own, thanks to the greed of humanity
