Still The Same

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko

You told me it's different
You told me it's a high-end
I tried to trust you
I did it with no question in two

But you forget one thing
The thing all people think
It's still the same, Mate!
It's still the point we hate

You asked me why it's happened
You know we both already waited
You asked me why we're still here
You know it's still the same there

The rest is just the way to come home
Together we laugh at stupidity of our own
On the edge of that junction, Friend
I said, "It's still the same," again

INTER THE CHAMPIONS

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko

Let them talking bad!
Let them try to make us sad!
Let them satisfied to humiliate!
As Interisti we keep the place we're standing at

They told we're loosers
Actually we're the winners
They said we'd never win
But our passion pays what we've believed in

Though nobody counted us
We never intended to pass
Even there's no one to see
We only wore one jersey

For the time we'd waited
For the honesty we laid
For every emotion that's held
Now, our love is paid

Forza Inter! Winners of UEFA Champions League 2010

PUISI UNTUK TUHAN

'Ammar Lelo Andiko

Dia datang, dia pergi

Dia datang, dia pergi

Dia datang, dia pergi

Lagi dan lagi

Sudah berkali terjadi

Entah sembilan atau sepuluh kali

Nyata sudah... dulu tiada ambil peduli

Selalu berharap itu berkah tak terperi

Namun lagi luka mendera hati

Tetap saja rindu mendendam dalam diri

Walau acap coba 'tuk hadir hening di sini

Manusia sejati tak bisa 'tuk pungkiri

Berkah-Mu ialah ini

Masih terpikir belumlah masanya kini

Setan-setan terus saja menari iri

Merasuk dari sisi-sisi

Mengikis sabar dalam sanubari

Memudar logika dalam imajinasi

Tak jarang tersalahkan melangkahnya kaki

Seperti pemabuk yang tak sadarkan diri

Menanti sesal di ujung hari

Namun Tuhan Maha Pemberi

Tak pernah lepas dari rawannya hati

Selama masih iman dalam do'a terpatri

Akanlah Ia beri cinta sejati serta cinta dalam sunyi

Terima kasih Allah SWT, Tuhanku Yang Maha Memahami; Yang Maha Mencintai! 

Terima kasih atas pemberian-Mu kepadaku, hamba-Mu yang kerap tak tahu diri! 

Engkau tahu: bila ku ingat, ku akan selalu menjaga pemberianmu - dengan hati

Semoga 'kan selamanya ini sejati: Pratiwi Hawa diri ini!

KAMU TAK SUKA?

Oleh: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.

 

Kali pertama ku lihat itu mata, ku yakin ku suka
Lebih lama lagi..., ternyata ku masih sama
Menahun menyimpan rasa, tanpa terasa
Namun tetap ku percaya, 'kan jadi nyata akhirnya

Ku lihat pantai hingga cakrawala
Menjangkau pandang hingga adanya
Ku terawang balik gunung di sana
Melompatkan jauh ku punya jiwa

Dalam malam ku impikan hadirnya
Engkau tersenyum pun tertawa
Fantasi buncahkan asa
Gapai lebihi dunia nyata

Anganku terus bertanya-tanya
Apakah berhasil ku punya usaha?
Adakah dia suka?
Akankah angan jadi nyata?

Janjiku tetap ada
Kesungguhan masih tercipta
Lemah hanya karena tak percaya
Mengapa tiada dia bertanya bila dia suka?

HARDWORKER

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.

 

Morning is started by a warming light
The grasses are still wet by the dew last night
Birds start singing as my ears listening them right
And the air gives us freshness it might

Your skin spreads soap's well perfume tight
A cassava, a cup off coffee fill your stomach right
Your steps shake the woody floor as your sharp sight
Tell the world whether you are ready to fight

You will come home at the depth of night
When everybody's lying on the bed right
But you can still share the smile light
As touching as your steps and sight

Your dedication is right
The schedule is said too tight
But it earns the strong light
How can I be like you to fight?

MEREKA ITU...

Oleh: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.

 

Dunia...!
Betapa berat bebanmu menanggung manusia
Mereka hanya memikirkan diri seorang saja
Yang mereka bilang benar hanyalah pura-pura
Padahal merekalah bandit sesungguhnya
Bak orang terzalimi lagaknya
Memedih pilu omongannya
Merendah sendu dia punya nada
Bermuram durja ia di depan semua

Mereka berlagak mengerti
Mereka seolah peduli
Mereka kira yang paling punya hati
Namun sekali lagi: mereka hanya pikir diri sendiri

Dunia...!
Mereka itu durjana
Tak tahu balas jasa
Tak pikir sekelilingnya
Asal dia perlu terpenuhi semua

Dunia...!
Tak pantas banyak bermanis kata pada mereka
Berujar pedas sudahlah sepantasnya
Agar kita tegar tahu mereka
Biar kita tak dipandang remeh olehnya
Supaya tak seenaknya lain ketika

Ini hari kata menembus hati
Kalimat langsung tak mengenal basa-basi
Biarlah segala itu terjadi
Tiada yang perlu disesali

Dunia...!
Kadang mereka tertawa
Melempar ejekan pada pembela

Biarkanlah itu!
Biar sajalah mereka begitu!
Mereka tiada menahu
Hanya segerombolan penipu
Yang sama buruknya dengan benalu
Saat beroleh peluang di balik punggungmu

Mereka tak peduli menimpakan wajahmu dengan plastik
Yang penting wajahnya tetap tampak cantik
Tak tahu cara menyiram taik
Apalagi menanam lagi apa yang telah mereka petik

Dunia yang pilu!
Walau lelah kau memberi tahu
Janganlah pernah meragu!
Hibur sajalah dirimu!
Dengarkan lagu-lagu merdu!

Dunia yang semrawut!
Pada pundakmu harap masih bergelayut
Selamat masih akan menyambut
Walau air kehidupan terasa kecut
Kau tak akan jadi pengecut

Tak akan ikut mereka minum kamput

TIRED

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.

My face seems sad
My eyes are red
My tongue says bad
My ears are sped

My hands are landed
My feet step mad
I need to go to bed
Lying on dreams I had

FAKE

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.

You smile on me
You talk nice to everybody
You laugh as everyone is happy
You joke like no matter to be

But... where are your words when they're needed?
Where is the promise while it should be executed?
Are they down just by a hit?
Is it so hard to meet?

You walk down the street like an actor
Turn around spreading your well odour
Pretend to give me some favor
Talk to ones like Mr. Governor

But... the steps have too many doubts
The turn breaks somebody's hopes
The pretenders can't deliver cups of soups
The talk just ties people with ropes

I waited for your change
Someday ago I saw a glance
But I was just tired sitting on a bench
Now it's hard to believe whether you'll have a sense

WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko A. A.


When you don't know what to do
will you turn in two?

When everything goes wrong
which do you prefer in among?
will you keep in strong?

When there's no one you can rely on
who will you depend upon?
which way will you carry on?
where will you bring your own?

BRIGHT MORNING

By ‘Ammar Lelo Andiko

On the bright morning I hang my dream
Trying to cross the stream
Facing the beauty of rainbow
Struggling the cold of snow

I breathe the fresh morning air
Touching the softness of dew
Gazing the green of grass
Imaging my dream

I trace my step on the road
Running my dream over the edge
In the name of God
I reach my life’s bagde

I feel the green green leaves
Fallen on my head
Blown by the wind’s waves
Featuring my lead

On the glow of morning’s sun
I’ll keep my run
Arranging my myth
Realizing my faith

STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NIGHT

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko

Wonderful night here you come
Don't you know I miss a home
Where my heart will go blossomed

Ask the moon: will he lighten
While disappointment spread again
Make us down 'till the end

Don't you know where should we go
If a miss tearing us so
Then the love we only know

Malang, July 7th 2009

DISASTER

By: 'Ammar Lelo Andiko


You will always be a disaster
as long as you don't know how to be a lover
You can only be a stranger
if you never look at the other

When will you wake up earlier
while you will be called not as a junker
while you have the ones to care

Remember that I will always be the hater
as far as you are not like a fighter
