Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Tak Biru Lagi Lautku

Tak Biru Lagi Lautku

Hamparan pasir
Tampak putih berbuih
Kala sisa ombak merayap
Hamparan pasir
Terasa panas menyengat
Di telapak kaki yang berkeringat

Camar-camar hitam
Terbang rendah melayang
Di sekitar perahu nelayan
Daun kelapa
Elok saat melambai
Mengikuti arah angin

Tampak ombak
Kejar-mengejar menuju karang
Menampar tubuh pencari ikan
Semilir angin berhembus
Bawa dendang unggas laut
Seperti restui jala nelayan

Gurau mereka
Oh, memang akrab dengan alam
Kudengar dari kejauhan
Dan batu-batu karang
Tertawa ramah bersahabat
Memaksa aku 'tuk bernyanyi

Tampak ombak
Kejar-mengejar menuju karang
Menampar tubuh pencari ikan
Semilir angin berhembus
Bawa dendang unggas laut
Seperti restui jala nelayan

Itu dahulu
Berapa tahun yang lalu
Cerita orang tuaku
Sangat berbeda
Dengan apa yang ada
Tak biru lagi lautku
Tak riuh lagi camarku
Tak rapat lagi jalamu
Tak kokoh lagi karangku
Tak buas lagi ombakmu
Tak elok lagi daun kelapaku
Tak senyum lagi nelayanku
Tak senyum lagi nelayanku

My Blue Ocean is No More

Sandy beaches
Appear foamy and white
As the waves crawl back
Sandy beaches
Feel scorching hot
On sweating soles

Black seagulls
Fly low and hover
Around fishermen's boats
Coconut leaves
Look graceful as they sway
Following the wind's direction

Waves can be seen
Chasing each other towards the reef
Slapping the bodies of fishermen
The gentle breeze blows
Carrying the songs of seabirds
Like a blessing for the fishermen's nets

Their laughter
Oh, they're so close to nature
I can hear it from afar
And the rocks
Chuckle amiably
Urging me to sing

Waves can be seen
Chasing each other towards the reef
Slapping the bodies of fishermen
The gentle breeze blows
Carrying the songs of seabirds
Like a blessing for the fishermen's nets

That was then
How many years ago
My parents' stories
Are very different
From what is there
My ocean is no longer blue
My seagulls are no longer noisy
Your nets are no longer dense
My reefs are no longer sturdy
Your waves are no longer fierce
My coconut leaves are no longer beautiful
My fishermen no longer smile
My fishermen no longer smile
