Hive Open Mic 178 : "People" Iwan Fals - Orang Pinggiran cover by
Hi Hivers, how are you all? I'm sure we're all fine. My name is 
For this week's theme I have prepared a good song, a song related to the theme, namely the song called "orang Pinggiran", which means people from the outskirts, this song is one of the songs from Iwan Fals.
And when the theme "People" was spread for this week, I was immediately reminded of this iwan fals song, this song tells the struggle of "outskirts" to be able to survive with makeshift conditions, even though their lives continue to be eroded by the times.
Outskirts are commoners, they can be anywhere, in villages, in villages, on sidewalks, on streets, in factories, in fields, in fields, in shops, under the hot sun, under bridges, they sing and dance for a living.
Outskirts, It's on the sidewalk
It's on the city bus, It's in the factory factory
People on the outskirts In the hot sun
On the muddy road Singing and dancing
In conditions full of shortcomings, survival is a struggle and becomes marginalized people.
This is what Iwan Fals raised through this song. It's sad the life that is run by the outskirts. They sing in their hearts, dance in their souls, It's sad and suffocating like a baby's cry at night.
When they wanted to ask why this could happen to them, no one could answer, even if they asked the sky, the sky no longer cared.
The song is a song of the heart
The dance of the soul
Like a baby crying at night
It's lonely when you're alone
While lying down dreaming
Staring at the sky without caring
Because tomorrow morning come back
People on the outskirts always try to fulfill various life needs despite limitations and backwardness, their motivation and enthusiasm for living life can overcome various existing obstacles, this is an inspiration for anyone who hears this song.
I think this song is a very relevant song to sing this week, this is what made me choose this song, because the song fits the theme of the 178th week of Hive Open Mic
Happy listening. .
Here are the full song lyrics.
Orang pinggiran
Ada di trotoar
Ada di bis kota
Ada di pabrik pabrik
Orang pinggiran
Di terik mentari
Di jalan becek
Menyanyi dan menari
Lagunya nyanyian hati
Tarinya tarian jiwa
Seperti tangis bayi dimalam hari
Sepinya waktu kala sendiri
Sambil berbaring meraih mimpi
Menatap langit langit tak perduli
Sebab esok pagi kembali
Orang pinggiran
Didalam lingkaran
Berputar putar
Kembali kepinggiran
Lagunya nyanyian hati
Tarinya tarian jiwa
Seperti tangis bayi dimalam hari
Sepinya waktu kala sendiri
Sambil berbaring meraih mimpi
Menatap langit langit tak perduli
Sebab esok pagi kembali
