MOTHER AND FATHER

Mother father…
You are so kind to me ...
You guided me until I was this big ...
You taught me everything ...
You guide me sincerely and patiently ...
But when I'm naughty, you scold me ...
But, when you scold me, I know it's for my good ...
Now he was aging until he was helpless
The once sturdy body is now fragile with age
Skin that was once smooth
has become rough because of earning a living into wrinkles
in the heat of the sun shining

O mother and father I want to accompany those old days
Being at your side guarding from the cruel world
Want to worship with the best of devotion actually
Because all of that guides my way steadily
Thank you your mother and father is my heaven

Ayah… Ibu…
Engkau begitu baik padaku…
Engkau membimbing ku hingga aku sebesar ini…
Engkau yang mengajariku segala hal…
Engkau membimbing ku dengan tulus dan sabar…
Tapi saat aku nakal, engkau memarahiku…
Tapi, saat engkau memarahiku, aku tahu itu demi kebaikanku…
Kini dia mulai menua sampai renta tak berdaya
Tubuh yang dulu kokoh sekarang rapuh termakan usia
Kulit yang dulunya halus
telah menjadi kasar karena mengais nafkah menjadi keriput
termakan teriknya sang surya yang menyinar

Wahai ibu dan ayah aku ingin menemani hari-hari tua itu
Berada di sisimu menjaga dari kejamnya dunia
Ingin berbakti dengan sebaik-tinggi bakti sebenarnya
Karena semua itu penuntun jalanku teguh
Terima kasih ibu dan ayah kalian adalah surga ku

Thank you
