lyrics

ALKISAH II

Alkisah suatu negeri
Berbagi dunia dengan kita kini
Satu sama lain menyahut “saudaraku”
Satu sama lain menyebut “dosamu, masa lalu”

Tanah kering menjadi hijau merdu
Berpupuk kasih dan sabar akan waktu
Menjelma duka dan amarah menjadi petuah
Menulari mereka yang terjangkit luka yang sama

Orang-orang tua dilindungi
Ilmu, riwayat, dan segala warisannya
Anak-anak muda diberkati
Nurani, badan, akal, segala tindakannya
Menghormati hujan dan matahari
Memberi arti tiap nyawa tanpa kecuali

Alkisah, seindah itu suatu negeri
Berbeda meski berbagi dunia dengan kita kini
Meski negeri itu sudah tak ada lagi
Dibantai tamak dibakar benci
Terusir hina dari tanahnya sendiri
Oleh segala kerendahan hati
Yang ditafsirkan berarti kelemahan diri
Karena meremehkan mereka
Yang tak peduli akan hujan dan matahari
