I want no one to cry
Not even you
No need for the weep and tears
I am but a wild animal
Driven out of the herd
Let bullets pierce my skin
I'll fight 'till I win
Wounds and poisons I take a flee
A flee
'Till I let pass pain and misery
And I won't give a damn tear
I want to live a thousand more years
(Translation by Affiq from the poem Aku by Chairil Anwar. )
