O Mother, give the sign
Then the signal sounded
In ever clashing clamor
All along the way mad with love
Clad in fine white trousers,
in skirts of deep red hue
With dark green silken belt
With gold encrusted kens
Brilliant diamond earrings
Set in fine gold filagree
Frangipanni blossoms
Of redolent fragrance sweet
With flowing sash of cindhe silk,
adorned with golden bracelets
Yes, annointed with fragrant balms
(Her) golden diadem studded
With rarest precious jewels
Gracing her ears, gossamer wings of gold
Frangipanni blossoms bright
So redolent of fragrance sweet
Heart veiled with care,
when (we together) lay parted
gods aflank a mighty gate
(unplugged)
All is lost - the pillow lies
fallen on the floor
Who then shall take pity
on the transport of (my) love?
Light of the world,
flower of enlightenment:
Manifest bright are but thou in the bed
O mighty Sea Mother
The enthralling arrow soars
to oblivion in soulful love
Secreted deep within
the heart; ever may fall before
the Sunan's feet, the allure
of his approach stirs
(your) heart and passion
Sea dragon, thou tilarsa
leaf be (thou) calmed;
to whom then does herself belong?
O mighty Sea Mother
Never risen let (it) set again
Show me how to serve (thee)
(I) shall beg to lie beneath (thy) feet
Perhaps were it manifest
in truth I would fall sick
Perhaps (I would) go to thee,
O Mighty Lord, shall I meet (thee)
South coast of Java land
desolate grimming haunted
thunderous malignant waves
hit the hardened reef
Roaring sea goes dumming
As glassware in silence
Inferred shining gold rays
Sparkling with shadows dim
Footbridge carriage soar the sky
Fly like the eagle fly burning
Sound of Gamelan humming
perennial accompany the ocean's queen
