It starts as a whisper,

Ayo kita mulai.

a word on the air.

It can't quite be heard, but you know that it's there.

Bermula sebagai bisikan,

sepatah kata di udara.

As gentle as sunlight,

Hampir tak terdengar, tapi kau tahu ia ada.

as tenacious as hale,

in its route to the heart, it could not but prevail.

Selembut sinar mentari,

Segigih tetes hujan,

And the people looked up from their day-to-day tasks,

ia bergerak menuju kalbu, dan terus bertahan.

their day-to-day jobs

and their day-to-day masks.

Dan orang-orang mendongak dari tugas sehari-hari,

They heard or they felt

dari pekerjaan sehari-hari,

where the whisper could lead,

dan dari masker sehari-hari.

and they looked with eyes wide

Mereka mendengar atau merasa

at what that might mean.

apa yang disampaikan bisikan itu,

And once they could see it, they hadn't a chance

dan mereka terbelalak tak percaya

saat mengerti apa yang dimaksud.

To resist the sweet song

of the deep spell it cast.

Dan begitu bisa melihatnya, mereka tak lagi sempat

menampik nada indah

But the feeling it brought them at first glance

dalam mantra yang ia ucapkan.

was pain,

as they lifted their eyes on the land they had claimed.

Namun, rasa yang timbul pada mereka

Since they saw at last

awalnya pedih,

as if raised from a dream,

saat memandang negeri yang mereka huni.

they were almost alone on the land and the sea.

Karena akhirnya mereka tersadar,

seakan terbangun dari mimpi,

mereka nyaris sendirian di darat dan laut.

For the trees had almost gone,

and the bees had almost gone,

and the creatures in their shells by the seas

Karena hutan hampir lenyap,

had almost gone.

lebah hampir lenyap,

And the people felt sad as they saw their new Earth,

dan makhluk bercangkang di tepi laut

but they knew this was it,

hampir lenyap.

one wild chance for rebirth.

Dan orang-orang terguncang saat melihat dunia baru mereka,

tapi mereka tahu inilah dia,

Breaking new ground, seeds rolling down,

kesempatan besar untuk terlahir kembali.

smell of the earth on your hands and your brow.

Membuka lahan baru, menyebar benih,

No time for sorrow, we're building tomorrow.

aroma tanah di tangan dan dahi.

The sound of things growing now keeps us around.

Tak ada waktu berduka, kita bangun hari tua.

As the wildness grows, and the deep wood grows,

Deru pertumbuhan kini terdengar di mana-mana.

and the sense that the future's come to meet you

grows,

Karena alam tumbuh, dan hutan tumbuh,

There's no chance we can rest.

We must do our best.

dan keyakinan akan datangnya masa depan

This moment can lead us back home,

tumbuh.

Jangan berpangku tangan.

that's our test.

Saatnya singsingkan lengan.

It starts as a whisper,

Momen ini bisa membawa kia kembali ke cita-cita awal

Itulah ujiannya.

a word on the air.

It can't quite be heard, but you know that it's there.

Bermula sebagai bisikan,

sepatah kata di udara.

It then spoke like thunder.

Hampir tak terdengar, tapi kau tahu ia ada.

Until we all moved.

And we could.

And we did.

Lalu ia menggelegar,

And it's done.

hingga kita semua bergerak.

She's renewed.

Dan kita bisa.

Dan kita mampu.

Dan tuntas.

Bumi kembali baru.
