senja yang merah
air mengalir lesu
pulanglah sayang


in late evening
the wide slow moving river
please come back darling

 






shinkansen laju
menuju destinasi
tinggal kenangan

the bullet train
going fast to the destination
left the memories


Speeding express train
Life through an open window
I wonder how their day went

Somehow, having stayed only in megacities in Japan, I wonder, always wonder, what life is like in the 'in-between towns and villages that I pass by on trains. An open window, people watching TV, having dinner, just talking ...

A village zips past the bullet train
Fast moving impressions
Slow moving life

You get only a few seconds to see the roof tops of a village, people walking by, cars parked on the side. You are in a hurry to get from A to B. But for so many people, life just goes on. When you think of it, how insignificant your problems become!!

hutan menebal
jalan sempit berliku
lemas di darat

in the thick jungle
small winding road
drown on earth surface

walking in the wood
the leaves are changing colours
wonderful season

--- by nectar

 

berpagar putih
bunga merah berseri
damai sekali

the white and strong fence
many trees and red flowers
my heart being happy

pepohon hijau
laut setenang pantai
damai bersantai

(green coconut

Under the moonlight
by nectar




Under the moonlight
I could feel the sea breeze
Alhamdulillah

 
LAUT YANG BIRU
by nectar




laut yang biru
terkenangkan dirimu
hatiku pilu

seing the blue sea
remembering about you
i m feeling sad


 
BULAN DAN MALAM

bulan dan malam
panas matahari siang
bintang di mana?


moon and the night
daily sunshine
where is the star?





 

benci dan rindu
kejar bebayang diri
tegap di situ


love and hate
searching for own shadow
still there and there
