Hi everybody. Introducing myself, my name is Teofilus Sinaga and I come from Indonesia to be precise to the city of Medan. Today, the weekly #openmic event has entered its 146th week with the theme The Union. This theme was chosen by @elioe, one of the great musicians and spotlight artists in this hive community. The Hive Open Mic weekly music event is very interesting to me because it provides challenges from each theme of the week.

On this week's theme, I am bringing you a cover song entitled “Sunset di Tanah Anarki” written and popularized by Superman Is Dead, a rock band from Bali, Indonesia. I don't know if this song is suitable for this week's theme because the lyrics tell about the struggle of a young man in the colonial era. To be able to live peacefully with his lover, the young man is willing to become a fighter against the colonialists and fight with his comrades. Together they fight colonialism so that the young man can live in peace alone with his girlfriend.

This song was released in 2013 on the album “Be a Legend” by Sony Music Entertainment. Many artists and other singers cover and perform this song because this song also won an award for the best music group nomination that year. When listening to this song, I think about the struggles my ancestors did in the past. Where they have to fight against colonialism for the sake of independence and the good life of the next generation.

Indonesian Lyric

Andai ku malaikat, kupotong sayapku

Dan rasakan perih di dunia bersamamu
Perang 'kan berakhir, cinta 'kan abadi
Di tanah anarki, romansa terjadi

Desing peluru tak bertuan

Hari-hari yang tak benderang
Setiap detik nyawa ini
Kupertahankan untukmu

Alasanku ada di sini

Dan parasmu yang kurindukan
Di neraka 'kan kumenangkan
Hariku bersamamu

Andai ku malaikat, kupotong sayapku

Dan rasakan perih di dunia bersamamu
Perang 'kan berakhir, cinta 'kan abadi
Di tanah anarki, romansa terjadi

Dalam gelisah, ku menunggu

Berita tentang gerilyamu
Semerbak rindu kuasai
Udara panas ini

Sepucuk surat telah tiba

Dan senja pun ikut berdebar
Kalimat indah dan kisahmu
Tentang perang dan cinta

English Translate Lyric

If I were an angel, I would cut my wings

And feel the pain in the world with you
War will end, love will last forever
In the land of anarchy, romance takes place

No-man's bullet whistling

The days are not bright
Every second of this life
I'll keep it for you

My reason is here

And your face that I miss
In hell I will win
my day with you

If I were an angel, I would cut my wings

And feel the pain in the world with you
War will end, love will last forever
In the land of anarchy, romance takes place

Anxiously, I waited

News about your guerrilla
Merbak longing to master
This hot air

A letter has arrived

And the twilight also pounded
Beautiful words and your story
About war and love
