MEMORIES IN FRONT OF TUGU THE STRUGGLE OF 1945 BINJAI

To Lie Sim

Night will come, the heart moves
With hugs and kisses
The Bingai River sings under the air
dance with your shadow

In front of the 1945 Struggle Monument, I walked
behind your footprints. Surrounded by time
centuries and thousands of years
Memories flooded the city, lights were on
Touch the butterfly's wings

I am waiting for you. Night comes without a hug
without kissing your lips. Only echo sounds
the Bingai river that never stops singing
Smell trees and flowers

I miss your rambutan eyes. I miss
the sound of water hugging fish
I miss the sounds of children swimming,
jump and dive
The aroma of memories that are still beating in the breath
Like branches and branches looking for flowers
Emerging and sinking from the sides of the road

Don't say goodbye
Even though I die all the time
Repeating the night from the remnants of the light
From your missing eye
