Spesial Harlah PMII #60

The Deepest Longing

By: Inayah Nur Afni

This night, the wind blow gently
Nobody but I sit under the dark sky
I talk to the moon, “Don’t you feel the same?”
I talk to the shining stars, “Do you know my feelings?”

My mind flies through the night
The night serves a poisonous air
Intoxicating me in the longing
These memories stuck me in the dark,
They swallow me in a crater of heart

I’m like a body without soul
Like a heart without heart beat
Like air without oxygen
Like a human without love
My steps totter

But, everything has changed since I found you
Blue and yellow that resemble your strength
Defender of nation, upholder of religion
The movement that become the place for reaching future,
The place for connecting aspirations of society,
The place for upholding justice

A cup of coffee, books, an excited discussion
A mysterious circle, yell of spirit, burning song
These are all characteristics of our movement
and I fall in love with them
Don’t you miss it?

The new me was born here
to live a life firmly, becoming more caring, more responsible
Let me devote my self for you PMII
Happy 60^th anniversary PMII!
Grow rapidly, cadres of PMII!
