PUISI-ANTARA TALIBAN-TALIBAN

ANTARA TALIBAN- TALIBAN


Sewaktu Patung Buddha di Lembah Bamiyan dihancurkan

ramailah perwira warisan dunia

menjerit ke seluruh dunia

mengutuk para Mullah dan Taliban

tetapi siapa pun tidak bersuara

bila dron-dron menghancurkan muzium 

tapak warisan Babylon

Taman Tergantung  

dan segala macam tinggalan Raja Darius

yang tak ternilai harganya 

kepada  sejarah  dan warisan dunia



aku bukanlah peminat setia 

mereka yang menghancurkan patung Buddha di Bamiyan

mungkin telah lama di tembak seperti Malala

kerna menulis puisi

dan memperkata filem-filem Samira, Hana Makhbalbaf dan 

Mira Nair

tapi bukankah keduanya  

pemusnah tamaddun dan warisan dunia?


Jadi kenapa George Clooney 

dan isteri jelitanya Amal

tidak berkata apa-apa?


ENGLISH TRANSLATION:


BETWEEN THE TALIBANS


When Buddha statues in Bamiyan Valley were demolished

many heritage warriors

screamed to the whole world

condemning the Mullah and Taliban

but nobody says anything

when drones destroyed museums

Babylon Heritage Sites

The Hanging Garden

and all left by King Darius

priceless to history and world heritage


I am not an ardent fan

of those who demolished Buddha statues in Bamiyan

probably had been shot like Malala

for writting poems

and talking about Samira, Hana Makhbalbaf and Mira Nair's films


But arent they all

world civilization and heritage destroyers?


So why didnt George Clooney

and his beautiful wife Amal

say something?
