Hello brothers and sisters, we are a punk rock band from Medan, Indonesia. Our band was formed in 2005 and still exists today. Today, in the Hive Open Mic community, we are back for the weekly #openmic event that takes place every week. Today has entered week 115. The theme for this week is "Doing the work." So, we performed our original song entitled "Buruh Tani" In English it is farm workers.
This song was recorded in 2020 with a punk feel that is not fast, but still distorted. This song will be included in the next album list. We dedicate this song that we have created to all farm workers who have contributed to their work. Without farmers, we can't enjoy staple foods such as rice, corn, wheat, and fruits.
Farm workers are unsung heroes. They work hard to grow rice, corn and wheat for us to enjoy. But here in our country, farm workers have bad luck. the majority of farmers in Indonesia have not felt independence. Until now, farmers are still impressed as a poor profession, stupid, and have no future. The wages of farm workers here are very low. There are also many evictions of agricultural land which causes the narrowness of their land. It is the middlemen who buy the crops that are so cheap, but they sell them to the people at a very high price.
Lyrics of the song in Indonesian;
"Buruh tani kita bersatu
Turun ke jalan bergerak maju
Rebut kembali hak kita yang hakiki
Lawan semua dinding tirani
Pastikan kita tetap berdiri
Akhiri semua penderitaan
Teriak Buruh, kepalkan tangan
Petani bergerak, maju ke depan
Tunduk tertindas atau bangkit melawan
Sudah saatnya berjihad
Buruh tani dan keyakinan
Otoritas tirani pasti kita bumi hanguskan
Sekarang untuk selamanya
Berjuang demi anak cucu kita
Takkan ada lagi deraian air mata
Buruh tani hidup sejahtera"
Lyrics of the song in English;
"Our farm workers unite
Get down to the road moving forward
Reclaim our true rights
Against all tyrannical walls
Make sure we keep standing
End all suffering
Shouted the worker, clench hands
Farmers move, move forward
Bow down to the oppressed or rise against
It's time to fight
Farm workers and faith
The tyrannical authority we must burn the earth
Now forever
Fight for our children and grandchildren
There will be no more tears
Farm workers live in prosperity"
Maybe those are just some of the messages we can explain to you. Thank you for watching and listening to our original song. Greetings and brotherly greetings to all of us. May we all stay healthy and keep the spirit.
