Today Bahasa Indonesia

Behwa miti lelap. Behwa lelap boleh jadi bermimpi

To die, to sleep. to sleep, maybe to dream (from HAMLET)

죽는 다는 것은 잠드는 것, 아마도 꿈을 꾸겠지...


"To die, to sleep. to sleep, maybe to dream"

It's a poetic language, so I will not translate this in a literal sense. I would translate this in how I believe it would translate well, in Bahasa Indonesia's poetic language.

"Mati, untuk tidur. Tidur, mungkin untuk bermimpi."

The English word "to" can also be translated to "untuk" in Bahasa Indonesia (depending on the use, but we could have along discussion on this one. Maybe on another day). Therefore I translated it that way:


"Mati, untuk tidur. Tidur, mungkin untuk bermimpi."

I hope this helps. Just let me know you still have some questions! :)

Kalau sampai waktuku
'Ku mau tak seorang 'kan merayu
Tidak juga kau

Tak perlu sedu sedan itu

Aku ini binatang jalang
Dari kumpulannya terbuang

Biar peluru menembus kulitku
Aku tetap meradang menerjang

Luka dan bisa kubawa berlari
Berlari

Hingga hilang pedih perih

Dan aku akan lebih tidak peduli
Aku mau hidup seribu tahun lagi!






If my time has come
I don't want anyone to beg
Not even you

I don't need that sniveling!

I'm but a wild animal
Exiled even from his own group

Even if bullets pierce my skin
I will still enrage and attack

Wounds and poison I'll take running
Running

Until the pain leaves

And I will care even less
I want to live a thousand more years

Title: Aku ( in English: Me)

Poem by: Chairil Anwar

Translation was copied from Wikipedia, but this is probably the best translation you could ever find.

Let me rephrase "Behwa miti lelap. Behwa lelap boleh jadi bermimpi" to "mati berarti tertidur, tertidur mungkin bermimpi."

To die = mati
to sleep = tidur
maybe = mungkin / boleh jadi
to dream = bermimpi


To die, to sleep. to sleep, maybe to dream (from HAMLET)


죽는 다는 것은 잠드는 것, 아마도 꿈을 꾸겠지...

Behwa miti lelap. Behwa lelap boleh jadi bermimpi

Untuk mati, untuk terlelap. Bahwa terlelap boleh jadi bermimpi.

if you are trying to use "lelap" , you can say the sentences like I write above :)

To die, to sleep. to sleep, maybe to dream (from HAMLET)

죽는 다는 것은 잠드는 것, 아마도 꿈을 꾸겠지...
