Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Mata Indah Bola Pingpong

Mata Indah Bola Pingpong

Untukmu yang duduk sambil diskusi
Untukmu yang biasa bersafari
Di sana, di gedung DPR

Wakil rakyat kumpulan orang hebat
Bukan kumpulan teman-teman dekat
Apalagi sanak famili

Di hati dan lidahmu kami berharap
Suara kami tolong dengar lalu sampaikan
Jangan ragu, jangan takut karang menghadang
Bicaralah yang lantang, jangan hanya diam!

Di kantong safarimu kami titipkan
Masa depan kami dan negeri ini
Dari Sabang sampai Merauke

Saudara dipilih bukan dilotre
Meski kami tak kenal siapa saudara
Kami tak sudi memilih para juara
Juara diam, juara he-eh, juara hahaha

Untukmu yang duduk sambil diskusi
Untukmu yang biasa bersafari
Di sana, di gedung DPR

Di hati dan lidahmu kami berharap
Suara kami tolong dengar lalu sampaikan
Jangan ragu, jangan takut karang menghadang
Bicaralah yang lantang, jangan hanya diam!

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Wakil rakyat bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Wakil rakyat seharusnya merakyat
Jangan tidur waktu sidang soal rakyat
Bukan paduan suara
Hanya tahu nyanyian lagu "setuju"

Pretty Eyes of a Ping Pong Ball

To you sitting in discussions
To you who are used to going on safaris
There, in the DPR building

People's representatives are a group of great people
Not a group of close friends
And certainly not relatives

In our hearts and on our tongues we hope
Please hear our voices and convey them
Don't hesitate, don't be afraid the reefs may block your way
Speak out loud, don't just be silent!

In your safari bag we entrust
Our future and that of this country
From Sabang to Merauke

Brothers and sisters, you were elected, not chosen by lottery
Although we don't know who you are
We don't want to choose champions
Champions of silence, champions of "uh-huh", champions of "hahaha"

To you sitting in discussions
To you who are used to going on safaris
There, in the DPR building

In our hearts and on our tongues we hope
Please hear our voices and convey them
Don't hesitate, don't be afraid the reefs may block your way
Speak out loud, don't just be silent!

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
People's representatives are not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"

People's representatives should represent the people
Don't sleep during sessions about the people
Not a choir
Only knowing how to sing the song of "agree"
