Hive Open Mic Week 141 - Putih Fana (Original Song) by Indonesia Bersatu

Hello brothers and sisters, We are Indonesia Bersatu, a Punk Rock band from the city of Medan, Indonesia. We are back here to entertain you and also share the music video that we played in the #OpenMic Hive community which has entered its 141st week. It's great that all of our band members are complete, so we can play live music with a full band. So, this week's theme is “Winter" chosen by this week's spotlight artist @purplesinger. It's a very good and catchy theme, so we made a song called “Putih Fana” in English “Mortal White”. This song was written by our vocalist Opan Gobank on the same day.

Even though this week's theme is winter, the original song we played today isn't about snow. But, about the change, someone demanded by the world. When we were children, we had a lot of joy and fun. We have many friends, we always play together. All the joy we felt as children fade as adults. We are required to work and earn money for the necessities of life.

Adulthood is a real-world thing. We feel how tired, sick, and suffering. The pleasure we seek is only temporary. A pleasure to cover up the wounds of the life we live. But afterwards, we have to go back to crawling and somersaulting to survive in the life we live. Sometimes, we keep trying to achieve the goals we dream of, but all the effort and hard work for these goals are swallowed up by reality. So, this is how real life runs. The Universe provides unexpected things, even beyond our expectations.

Indonesian Lyric

Mentari tak lagi sama
Cahaya tak kunjung tiba
Di selimuti putih nya sepi
Terusik dinginnya luka

Waktu berjalan lambat
Hidup ajarkan kuat
Semua kepalsuan dunia
Menuntut kau sirna

Sedingin hari, sedingin mimpi
Semua hanya menjadi ilusi
Sedingin rasa, sedingin harapan
Semua hanyalah fana

Oh dunia, oh dunia

English Translate Lyric

The sun is no longer the same
The light never came
In white blanket is quite
Keep the cold wound

Time is running slow
Life teaches strong
All the fakes of the world
Demands you to disappear

As cold as a day, as cold as a dream

Everything is just an illusion

As cold as feeling, as cold as hope

All are just mortal

Oh world, oh world
