Sukardi Wahyudi’s poem
MATARA IS A WILD LAND
Matara is a wild land
picking the light in a full moon
incantation is left to the shadow
come here whose far away from the eyes
be a hero whose standing closer
holy heart, there are no stains
treating heart attack without difficulty
Fuh!
Fuh!
Fuh!
the bursts of water prayer rained down in all directions
cure the illnesses instantly
return back to where it came from
auspicious saying from his ancestors
God’s blessing for His creatures
Sukardi Wahyudi
Kalimantan Timur, Indonesia
