Italian Girl Song¹
By: Sitor Situmorang
Create Silviana Maccari
The lake in the morning
Italian Hill Church Bells
When your season comes
Meet my brother in the bay of Naples
shimmering lake in the morning
Italian hill church bells
Since brother then go
Brother miss every day
The lake in the morning
Italian hill church bells
If you don't come back
Brother waiting to die
Barren hill in the vineyard
Shady sand under the palm
Brother, my heart is broken
Chasing the shadows in the fall snow

Example 2:
Letter love²
By: WS Rendra
Write a letter
love thiswhen it's drizzling
like the sound of toy hair
magical world fairy children.
And the wind sighs
moan and sigh.
Oh, Dik Narti,
I love you!
I wrote this letter
when the sky cries
and two grouse
making love in the pool
like two bad boys
witty and sweet
wagging tail
and vibrate its feathers.
Oh, Dik Narti,
I ask you to be my wife!

Example 3:
In My Prayer³
By: Sapardi Djoko Damono
in my prayer this morning you become the sky that lasts all night
Don't close your eyes, the ones that expand are clear
received the first light, which was curved in silence because
will receive voices
when the sun floats quietly overhead, deep
I pray that you become green fir shoots
always, who never stops asking questions
impossible to the howling wind from where
in my prayer this afternoon you became a sparrow who
fluttering her fur in the drizzle, which perch in
twigs and drop the hairs of the guava flower, which
suddenly restless and flew and landed on a mango branch
that
This evening, in my prayer, you become a very wind that descends
slowly from the nun there, tiptoed down the lane,
infiltrated the cracks in windows and doors, and touched
touched his cheeks and lips to his hair, forehead, and feathers
you my eyes
in my night prayer you incarnate my heartbeat, which
patiently endured the unknown pain
the limit, who faithfully investigates secret after secret, which
never stop singing for my life
I love you, that's why I'll never finish
pray for your safety
(1989)
