Where is The Indonesian Youth Today?

Where is the Indonesian youth today?
Some answered, here we are!
others were not answered.
some asking the same question,
where is the Indonesian youth today?

The real question is not to be answered, nor for no answer, but we must think together, with a clear mind, a mind not troubled.

Where is the Indonesian youth today?

Oh, I see it, they were there at the school bench, at their junior high, high school, and college.

Uh, but why some are not schools, they even play in the streets, selling whatever they can sell, even begging.

Uh wait, but why some are not on the streets, they play hooky from school, with their friends, relieving stress in crazy ways.

(sigh)

Where is the Indonesian youth today?

Some tried to find identity
Some surrendered to fate
Some do not do anything

Some worked
Some worked hard for their family

Some continue to have fun
Some continue to complain
Some do not know anything

Some are optimistic to meet the future
Some fears waiting for tomorrow

Some healthy
Some sick

Some strong
Some weak

Where is the Indonesian youth today?

Complaining will not end anything.
Young people should not stop working, should not stop dreaming.
No complain. No upset.
No giving up.

Where is the Indonesian youth today?

Satu nusa, satu bangsa
Satu bahasa kita
Tanah air pasti jaya
Untuk slama-lamanya

Indonesia pusaka
Indonesia tercinta

Nusa bangsa dan bahasa
Kita bela bersama
