who says that the Eternally Living is dead,
who says that yonder Sun of Hope is dead,
He is the sun's enemy; climbing on to the roof,
He veiled his eyes and cried, "The Sun is dead!"
~~~~~
Siapa bilang Kehidupan Abadi itu mati,
Siapa bilang Matahari Harapan itu mati,
Dia adalah musuh matahari yang memanjat ke atap,
Mencadari matanya dan menangis, "Matahari sudah mati!"
~~~
Quatrain 534
