My ballad on the island of Papua

 In my island of Papua everything
Moon at night shrinkage
Dark Star in the sky

In my island of Papua
Winnowing of hope and strife
Villages hit me and my city
so spectacle News

In my island of Papua
avarice and greed
United in life
Together, just as the Sea and waves
Torn at the rock
Disaster delivery

In my island of Papua
Lost Statesman
And teachers nobility
Wealth is lost like dew
When Thugs becomes hero

Crimes such as writing on water
Seizing the throne is kemulyaan
This island property belongs to another person
my people living in impoverished
As the dust under the wind helpless.

In a nation and Negar
Legal disappeared in the age
Justice just for pearl divers
and climber Cloud.
