Bagan Sebuah Malam

Sajak Federico Garcia Lorca



Adas wangi, seringai naga, hiruk pikuk.

Aroma, isyarat itu, dan bayang gerhana.

Angkasa, bumi, dan kesendirian.



(Tangga tinggi tegak menaiki bulan.)





Schematic Nocturne



The fennel, a serpent, and rushes.

Aroma, a sign, and penumbra.

Air, earth, and solitariness.



(The ladder lifts up to the moon.)
