In Reply to: a bali poem from a workmate of mine posted by yevisha on Friday, 25. February 2005 at 10:22 Bali Time:
I translated the poem into Indonesian via toggletext and then used the same program to re-translate it into English. This is the result:
Bali bound
Beautiful was attracted to the coast where the sun and sea gradually became Australians paradise
graceful struck-mukul ocean
reflected tumultuous the agreement and begging
the humour and haggling
related Bali
At least in this version the sea doesn't melt. Nor does the sun. Which is surprising, really, considering how hot it is.
