The smell of promises rot/Bau Janji Membusuk

Talking echoes throughout the world
Chuckled with admiration from the supporters
Rhetoric is arranged like sparkling pearls
A roar of cheers while nodding

Appointment promises are arranged nicely
screamed cheerfully the devotee
The trumpet trumpeted ears
A sweet smile comes from exotic lips

Kepal raised the echo of enthusiasm
On the pulpits and the stage of Democracy
Goosebumped in amazement, amazed at the diction of the promise
But 10 years passed the teacher's salary remained standard
The teacher still honors the honorarium
Unemployment is increasingly spreading
Prices are rising
Electricity is strangling
Imports of sugar, rice, wheat, continue
Kian's nose piercing smell - the smell of promises rot.Berkoar menggema seantero dunia
Berdecak kagum para pendukung
Retorika tertata bak mutiara berkilau
Gemuruh sorak sorai sambil manggut-manggut

Diksi janji tertata apik
jerit riang kobarkan sang pemuja
Terompet drumben pekakkan telinga
Senyum manis terkulum dari bibir eksotis

Kepal mengangkat gaungkan semangat
Pada mimbar-mimbar dan panggung Demokrasi
Merinding takjub ,kagum pada diksi-diksi janji
Namun 10 tahun berlalu gaji guru tetap standar
Guru Honor tetap honor
Pengangguran kian menyebar
Harga-harga kian membumbung
Listrik kian mencekik
Impor gula, beras, gandum, berlanjut
Kian menusuk hidung bau - bau janji membusuk.
