Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Ujung aspal Pondok Gede

Ujung aspal Pondok Gede

Di kamar ini, aku dilahirkan
Di balai bambu buah tangan bapakku
Di rumah ini, aku dibesarkan
Dibelai mesra lentik jari Ibu

Nama dusunku Ujung Aspal Pondok Gede
Rimbun dan anggun, ramah senyum penghuni dusun

Kambing sembilan, motor tiga bapak punya
Ladang yang luas habis sudah s'bagai gantinya

Sampai saat tanah moyangku
Tersentuh sebuah rencana
Dari serakahnya kota
Terlihat murung wajah pribumi
Terdengar langkah hewan bernyanyi

Di depan masjid, samping rumah wakil Pak Lurah
Tempat dulu kami bermain, mengisi cerahnya hari
Namun, sebentar lagi angkuh tembok pabrik berdiri
Satu per satu sahabat pergi dan takkan pernah kembali

Sampai saat tanah moyangku
Tersentuh sebuah rencana
Dari serakahnya kota
Terlihat murung wajah pribumi
Terdengar langkah hewan bernyanyi

Pondok Gede Asphalt's End

In this room, I was born
In a bamboo pavilion, my father's handiwork
In this house, I was raised
Caressed tenderly by my mother's supple fingers

My hamlet is called Pondok Gede Asphalt's End
Lush and graceful, the smiles of its inhabitants welcoming

Nine goats, three motorbikes my father owned
His vast fields sold off long ago

Until the day my ancestral land
Was touched by a plan
From the city's greed
The faces of the natives grew sullen
The sound of animals singing in mourning

In front of the mosque, beside the deputy village chief's house
Where we used to play, filling our days with sunshine
But soon, the factory's arrogant walls will rise
One by one, my friends will leave and never return

Until the day my ancestral land
Was touched by a plan
From the city's greed
The faces of the natives grew sullen
The sound of animals singing in mourning
