Awan di Atas Kepala
Begitu sesak kata-kata
Ceriwis tiada henti
Kaubangun dinding di sekeliling dirimu
Membentengi pikiran yang kauanggap kebenaran
Tapi bukankah pikiran itu seperti awan
Senantiasa berarak tak pernah diam
Yang tadi tampak seperti unta
Sejenak lagi serupa singa atau kepala kuda
Laksana samudra yang gelisah,
gerak pikiranmu pun tak sudah-sudah
Maukah kau kuajak sejenak lepaskan cengkeraman
Lihat saja awan-awan pikiran
Tanpa bilang ini itu tanpa mengelak tanpa berdebat
Maka kini terbitlah terang di jalanmu
Gelap pun susut menguap,
Seperti kabut terbakar hangat
Matahari pagi yang bersahabat
Sungai Moldau, Prague, 22 Jan 2021 |
So crammed full of words
Everlastingly chattering
You build a wall around yourself
Protecting the thoughts you take as truth
But thoughts are like clouds
They are forever changing
What you now see as camel
in an instant turn into a lion or a kite
Like the restless sea, it is constantly moving
Try for a moment to just let go
Observe your clouds of thought
Without judgement without escaping without fear
Only then there will be light in your path
Darkness disappear
Like mist kissed by the first light
of the amiable sunshine
