MEMASUKI KEBISINGAN KOTA CALCUTTA, INDIA

Orang tua itu

anggukan kepala

tawarkan pundak

otot kaki

tangan legam

tuk memanduku

lewati lorong-lorong

penuh sampah penuh senyum

bibir merah lambaikan tangan

Asha Boshle

Khisore Kumar

RD.Burman,penuhi salon

botol-botol

berserakan di lantai

potret Mahatma Gandhi

Tegar di dinding

Tuan-tuan

dibalik gedung mandikan sapi

hilir-mudik sendu

lintasiku mandikan abu

menggeleng

diam

ENTERING THE NOISY CALCUTTA CITY, INDIA

The old man

nodded his  head

offering his  shoulder

muscles of legs

solid black hand

leading me

through tunnels

full of garbage full of smile

red lips waving hamds

Asha Boshle

Khisore Kumar

RD.Burman, occupying  the salon

bottles

scattering all over the floor

portrait of Mahatma Gandhi

stuck the wall

Gentlemen

behind the building bathing the cow

walking to and fro in sorrow

passing by me , taking bath in dust

shaking head

still
