Puisi Naratif

Doa

Karya: Chairil Anwar

Tuhanku

Dalam termenung

Aku masih menyebut nama-Mu

Biar susah sungguh

Mengingat Kau penuh seluruh

Caya-Mu panas suci

Tinggal kerlip lilin di kelam sunyi

Tuhanku

Aku hilang bentuk

Remuk

Tuhanku

Aku mengembara di negeri asing

Tuhanku

Di pintu-Mu aku mengetuk

Aku tidak bisa berpaling 

 

Puisi Lirik

Cinta yang Tenang
Karya: Candra Malik

Cinta kita tak berkobar-kobar,
kita api yang tenang.
Rindu kita tak lantas membakar,
kita api yang tenang.

Lembut tapi menghangatkan,
kecil tapi dipertahankan,
redup tapi melegakan,
pelita bagi kegelapan.

Cinta dan rindu, kau dan aku
dua yang telah menjadi satu.

Cinta dan rindu, kau dan aku
bukan bara yang menjadi abu.

 

Puisi Dramatic

Di Bawah Kibaran Sarung*
Karya: Joko Pinurbo

Di bawah kibaran sarung anak-anak berangkat tidur
di haribaan malam. Tidur mereka seperti tidur
yang baka. Tidur yang dijaga dan disambangi
seorang lelaki kurus dengan punggung melengkung,
mata yang dalam dan cekung.
“Hidup orang miskin!” pekiknya
sambil membentangkan sarung.

“Hidup sarung!” seru seorang perempuan,
sahabta malam, yang tekun mendengarkan hujan.
Lalu ia mainkan piano, piano tua, di dada lelaki itu.
“Simfoni batukmu, nada-nada sakitmu,
musik klasikmu mengalun merdu
sepanjang malam,” hibur perempuan itu
dengan mata setengah terpejam. 

 

 

3.   What are genres of Indonesian Poetry? give an example of each genres 

    There are two genre such as, old poetry and new poetry

Old poetry

Old poetry was born before Indonesian literature was influenced by western culture. Society at that time, which tended to be static and collective in nature, gave birth to a form of poetry which was very much bound by various rules. Old poetry must contain rhymes, have a certain number of arrays, and even determine the number of syllables in one array, especially in pantun. There are several types of old poetry that you should know, namely: mantra, thimble, pantun, karmina, talibun, seloka, gurindam, and syair.

Pantun

Kalau ada jarum patah
Jangan dimasukkan ke dalam peti
Kalau ada kataku yang salah
Jangan dimasukan ke dalam hati 

New poetry

New poetry had a lot of influence from European culture. This poetry was born during the Dutch colonial period, thus it is difficult to avoid the influence of European culture on new poetry. There is still a similarity in form between old poetry and new poetry, which is still tied to the number of lines in one stanza. However, the number of syllables and words in each line, the number of stanzas, and rhymes, are no longer bound by strict rules. There are several new types of poetry, namely hymns, ode, romance, epigram, elegies, ballads, and satires. 

Ode

Generasi Sekarang

Di atas puncak gunung fantasi
Berdiri aku, dan dari sana
Mandang ke bawah, ke tempat berjuang
Generasi sekarang di panjang masa

Menciptakan kemegahan baru
Pantoen keindahan Indonesia
Yang jadi kenang-kenangan
Pada zaman dalam dunia
