Don't Go
Far Off
Pablo
Neruda
Don't go
far off, not even for a day, because --
because --
I don't know how to say it: a day is long
and I will
be waiting for you, as in an empty station
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don't leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
when the trains are parked off somewhere else, asleep.
Don't leave me, even for an hour, because
then the little drops of anguish will all run together,
the smoke
that roams looking for a home will drift
into me,
choking my lost heart.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Oh, may your silhouette never dissolve on the beach;
may your eyelids never flutter into the empty distance.
Don't
leave me for a second, my dearest,
because in that moment you'll have gone so far
I'll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying
because in that moment you'll have gone so far
I'll wander mazily over all the earth, asking,
Will you come back? Will you leave me here, dying
Jangan
Pergi Jauh
Jangan
pergi jauh, bahkan untuk sehari, karena --
karena –
aku tak tahu cara mengungkapkan: hari yang panjang
dan aku
selalu setia menanti untukmu, seperti di stasiun kosong
ketika
kereta yang diparkir berhenti di tempat lain, tertidur.
Jangan
tinggalkan aku, bahkan untuk satu jam, karena
setetes
penderitaan selalu berjalan bersama
asap yang
menjelajah mencari rumah melayang
ke dalam diriku, hatiku terteguk hilang.
ke dalam diriku, hatiku terteguk hilang.
Oh,
mungkin siluetmu tak pernah larut di pantai
mungkin
kelopak matamu tak bergetar ke dalam jarak kosong
Jangan
tinggalkan aku untuk keduaya, sayangku
karena ketika itu kau pergi sejauh ini
karena ketika itu kau pergi sejauh ini
aku selalu
berjalan limbung di atas muka bumi, bertanya
Kau akan
kembali? Kau akan tinggalkan aku di sini, sekarat?
