Here I Love You
-Pablo Neruda-
Here I love you.
In the dark pines the wind disentangles itself.
The moon glows like phosphorous on the vagrant
waters.
Days, all one kind, go chasing each other.
The snow unfurls in dancing
figures.
A silver gull slips down from the west.
Sometimes a sail. High, high stars.
Oh the black cross of a ship.
Alone.
Sometimes I get up early
and even my soul is wet.
Far away the sea sounds and resounds.
This is a port.
Here I love you.
Here I love you and the horizon hides you in vain.
I love you still among these cold things.
Sometimes my kisses go on those heavy vessels
that cross the sea towards no arrival.
I see myself forgotten like those old anchors.
The piers sadden when the
afternoon moors there.
My life grows tired, hungry to no purpose.
I love what I do not have. You are so far.
My loathing wrestles with the slow twilights.
But night comes and starts to sing to me.
The moon turns its
clockwork dream.
The biggest stars look at me with your eyes.
And as I love you, the pines in the wind
want to sing your name with their leaves of wire.
Aku Tresna Sliramu
-Pablo
Neruda-
*sinadur neng Basa Jawa dening Padmo Adi
Aku tresna
sliramu.
Ing saantaraning
tetanduran pinus kang peteng angin pecah.
Wulane ndadari cumlorot
sandhuwuring banyu wangi.
Dina-dina, kabeh
dina, padha oyak-oyakan.
Udan deres
mbabar crita kaya dene penari Karonsih.
Manuk camar perak
nunjem saka kulon.
Kala-kala
njlajah samodra. Dhuwur, sadhuwur kartika.
Oh salib ireng
sandhuwuring kapal.
Ijen.
Nalika subuh aku
tangi lan malah suksmaku teles.
Saka kadohan
krungu swara samodra, ngimbal-imbali.
Iki pelabuhan.
Aku tresna kowe.
Aku tresna kowe nanging
cakrawala ndhelikke sliramu ngono wae.
Aku isih tresna
sliramu saantaraning samubarang njekut iki.
Kala-kala ambungku
mabur sandhuwuring kapal-kapal gedhe
kang njlajah samodra
embuh menyang ngendi.
Jebul awakku
dilalekke kaya dene jangkar tuwa.
Pelabuhan iki sedhih
nalika surup teka neng kana.
Aku iki uwis
kesel, ora nduwe tujuwan urip.
Sing daktresnani
ora daknduweni. Kowe adoh.
Rasa gethingku
gelut karo surup kang alon teka.
Namung bengi
banjur teka lan nembang kanggo aku.
Wulandari miwiti
impenku.
Kartika kang
paling gedhe nyawang aku nganggo mripatmu.
Lan nalika aku
tresna sliramu, tetanduran pinus ing bayu
arep nembangke
jenengmu nganggo senar gegodhongan.
