Droplets of Heaven (Sonnet #1)

Thy painter of sky smiled from altitudes
The angels flew, danced amid the wet clouds
Coloring mist, dust of beatitude
Heaven's gate roared, the lightning showed its proud

The veil of universe lurks from behind
The shades crawl slow, camouflaged by the dark
Droplets pervade the odor of sweet mind
Like the smell of a wet land, the yearn park

Breezes whistle through the aisles of droplets
Caressing the skin while sky sheds its tears
Gaze to the stunning gloom in violets
The sparks steal some moments, shines with no fears


Flood recede and leaves caught the rest of rain
As my heart fades from melancholy, drained
 
Indonesian:
Sang Pelukis langit tersenyum dari ketinggian
Para malaikat terbang, menari di tengah awan basah
Mewarnai kabut, debu kebahagiaan
Gerbang Surga meraung, petir menunjukkan bangganya

Selubung semesta mengintai dari belakang
Nuansa merangkak lambat, disamarkan oleh gelap
Tetesan hujan merasuki aroma pikiran manis
Seperti bau tanah basah, taman rindu

Angin bersiul melalui sela-sela tetesan 
Membelai kulit sementara langit mencurahkan air matanya
Menatap kegelapan yang menakjubkan di violet
Percikan mencuri waktu, bersinar tanpa takut

Genangan surut dan daun menangkap sisa hujan
Seperti hati yang memudar dari melankolis, sirna
