I promise you when the weeds begin to burn.

I promise you when the weeds begin to burn.
Leaving you just the same delaying the earth's journey spins on its axis.
Loving you is not just expressing the taste then just silence.

I promise you when the sun is right overhead.
Anxiety without you like a canoe without paddling.
Love you with unlimited longing.

I promise you when the tamarind tree in the schoolyard is still a foot.
Dik, aura you when rinai come down to wet the earth.
Loving you timeless.

I promise you when the fall song of flowers is played


![image]() Aku berjanji padamu ketika padang ilalang mulai terbakar. Meninggalkanmu sama saja menunda perjalanan bumi berputar pada porosnya. Mencintai kamu bukan sekedar mengungkap rasa lalu hanya diam.

Aku berjanji padamu saat matahari tepat di atas kepala.
Kegelisahan tanpa dirimu seperti sampan tak berkayuh.
Mencintai kamu dengan rindu yang tak terbatas.

Aku berjanji padamu saat pohon asem di halaman sekolah masih sejengkal.
Dik, kunanti kamu saat rinai turun membasahi bumi.
Mencintai kamu tak lekang oleh waktu.

Aku berjanjimu ketika lagu gugur bunga diperdengarkan
