Hello, my brothers and sisters. Introducing, We are "INDONESIA BERSATU", a punk rock band from Medan, Indonesia. We love being in the "Sound Music" community. Btw, We consist of four band members, however, our drummer was sick and couldn't attend our show, so there were only three of us and played an acoustic version of a punk song.
In today's music show, we present a cover of a song popularized by "Marjinal", a punk band from Jakarta. The song is called "Ibu" (Mother). This song is more suitable to be played to welcome Earth Day on April 22.
Why is the title song Ibu (Mother) sung to celebrate Earth Day? The reason is, Earth is also the parent of all living things. Everything we eat and receive is from the earth. Earth is the mother of all of us because it is the earth that gives life to all creatures, including animals and plants.
The lyrics in the song are;
"Jayalah slalu untuk dirimu
Yang senantiasa berjasa
Tak pernah ada hentinya
dalam sejarah manusia
Dia pula yang menaburkan warna
berbagai bahasa
Mengajari manusia
berhati mulia dan berbakti
Dia pula yang tak jemuh-jemuh
untuk mengasuh
Dia pula yang tak henti-henti
untuk memberi
Itulah IBU….
IBUku IBUmu IBUmi kita semua
Tanpa dia, tak akan pernah ada
Sejarahnya manusia…
Itulah IBU….
IBUku IBUmu IBUmi kita semua
Tanpa dia, tak akan pernah ada
Sejarahnya dunia…"
The English translation for the lyrics of the song is;
"Long live for yourself
Who is always helpful
Never stop
in human history
She is the one who sprinkled the colour
multiple languages
Teaching humans
noble and devoted
She is also the one who is not bored
to babysit
She is also the one who never stops
to give
That's Mother….
My mother, your mother, the mother of us all
Without her, there would never be
Human history...
That's Mother….
My mother, your mother, the mother of us all
Without him, there would never be
The history of the world…"
Right now, Earth as our mother is too old, the situation is not good either. It is time for us to rise and open our eyes and hearts to always take care of the Earth as our mother. Let's make the earth a better place. Greetings from us "INDONESIA BERSATU" see you in the next music post.
