'Two Worlds'
is a song for the ones
who don't feel they quite belong
in one place or the other
for the ones who feel
like they are swimming between different shores
forever

LYRICS
[ ] = Javanese with English translation

I wear the pearls of a distant shore
I will swim until I find my home
treading water until I feel sand under my toes
breathing thick air
promises of a memory lost long ago

my body remembers what my mind cannot grasp
my feet dancing the embers of the fire in her heart
my feet remember the land of their ancestors
my hands whisper flow of ancient songs

[ Ombak banyu dumugi sun raosaken
Pasir ing ngisor driji suku sun
Sarira enget menapa ingkang mboten saget sun mangerteni
// the waves of water mingle without ceasing,
sand below continuously shifts its form,
the self ponders over matters incomprehensible,
yet remains unaware.]

your bond with earth is intimate
she is a sentient being [ Suku sun suku sun// my feet, my feet ]
who feels you travel her skin
and hears the songs you sing for her [ Suku sun suku sun // my feet, my feet]

the air moving through your breath
was born through her lungs
the water that flows through you
is hers too
[ Mbeksa ing saking njero manahnya // dancing fro my heart]

my body remembers what my mind cannot grasp
my feet dancing the embers of the fire in her heart
my feet remember the land of their ancestors
my hands whisper flow of ancient songs

and I remember
I remember
I

I wear the pearls of a distant shore
Aku berenang sampai aku pulang // I will swim until I find my home
