A song in Indonesian and English featuring Bali's  canang sari, palm leaf offering, which are everywhere and another type of offering also everywhere but not as desirable - plus lots of mythical creatures.

Origin of the song


Offerings - Persembahan Persembahan

There's a marigold - In the palm leaf offering

A single marigold - In the palm leaf offering

A flower marigold - In the palm leaf offering

A single flower marigold - In the palm leaf offering

 

It is an offering to the gods and goddesses

That bring us love and peace most dear

It is an offering to the gentle spirits

That guard the health of this sphere

 

 

There's plastic trash thrown just anywhere 

There's plastic trash on the ground

Plastic trash in the stream plastic trash in the sea

Plastic trash all around

 

There's tiny particles minuscule outside

And inside the waves and the ice

Inside the fish - inside the fauna

In the children of this paradise

 

It is an offering to the evil spirits

Which drag us toward earthly ruin

It is an offering to the demons and devils

Whose goal is our total undoing

 

Ada gumitir di dalam canang sari
Ada satu gumitir di dalam canang sari
Ada kembang gumitir di dalam canang sari
Ada satu kembang gumitir di dalam canang sari

Kita persembahkan ke alam niskala
Yang menjaga isi buana
Kita persembahkan kepada dewa dewi
Yg membawa kedamaian dunia
 

Ada sampah plastik dibuang sembarangan
Ada sampah plastik di tanah
Ada sampah plastik di kali, di laut
Ada sampah plastik di mana mana
 
Ada sampah plastik sangat kecil
Itu di dalam ombak dan es
Di tubuh ikan ikan dan hewan hewan
Di tubuh anak anak manusia
 
Itu persembahan kepada roh jahat
Menyeret kita dalam petaka
Itu persembahan kepada setan setan
Yang membawa kemusnahan


English and Indonesian first verse together

Ada sampah plastik dibuang sembarangan
                                    
Ada sampah plastik di tanah

Ada sampah plastik di kali, di laut

Ada sampah plastik di mana mana

 

Ada sampah plastik sangat kecil

 

Itu di dalam ombak dan es

 

Di tubuh ikan ikan - dan hewan hewan

 

Di tubuh anak anak manusia

 

 

Itu persembahan kepada roh jahat

 

Menyeret kita dalam petaka

Itu persembahan kepada setan setan

Yang membawa kemusnahan
