Persimpangan

[diambil dari bukunya Robert Frost]
The Road Not Taken

Two Road diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the under growth:

Then look the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Hand worn them really about the same

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted If I should ever come back

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference

......

tiba aku dipersimpangan
haruslah aku memilih
untuk melangkah maju
atau berpaling lalu mundur

tapi aku tetap terdiam
hening bergeming
tak tahu harus kemana

masa lalu menahanku
entah terlalu indah
entah terlalu suram
tapi mereka tak pernah mendorongku....

masa depan menarikku
membuka mataku untuk percaya
mengambil hasratku untuk selalu bertanya
tapi mereka tak pernah memaksaku.....

apakah aku akan tetap terdiam?
apakan aku akan terus ragu

masa lalu, dorong aku
masa depan, paksa aku
aku ingin maju!
