2009811gus-dur

Indonesia recently lost an important figure recently. Exactly two days before the year 2009 ended, our former chairman, Mr. KH Abdurrahman Wahid or Gus Dur is more familiarly called, leaving us all forever.

All the news now puts the return of "Father of National Pluralism" as the main headline. Print and electronic media continue to tell all the things that are still associated with Wahid during his lifetime. Of all the news I heard, there is one interesting thing that just tickled my ear.

That night, on Friday (01/01/2010) at around 20:30, a national private television station, TVOne, showing a kind of event "In Memoriam" (somehow I forgot what the name of his show), which tells about the views and responses of people Gus Dur on the figure nearest him during his lifetime. One interesting quote that I caught was "Gus Dur really like the song dim. Dangdut song is usually played on the radio FM Muara, Jakarta. Even he was angry when he was busy-fun listening to songs such dim, suddenly the song is lost because the ad. Instantly, he contact the radio announcer who was then on duty ", according to one close aide to Gus Dur.

"Gus Dur really like the song dim. Dangdut song is usually played on the radio FM Muara, Jakarta. Even he was angry when he was engrossed in listening to the song-fun in these dim, suddenly the song is lost because the ad. Instantly, he contact the radio announcer who was on duty "

Hmm, who knows what kind of songs titled dim?

Dim song is a song dangdut coast, or better known as the northern Tarling. This song tells the story of the struggle of women who are striving to meet the needs of a hard life. People living on the coast, particularly Indramayu (which is also my hometown: D) with a hard social situation in such a way to 'theme' of this song.

Here are the lyrics of the song dim:

Dim lights wayah afternoon
surute replace Srengenge
Wait a rare old wis Kakang kabare
Pain Pegel Kakang duh sun ngentenane

Dim light madangi lampune
Sometimes ketones latitude wis ora care
Kula happy time deweke njanjeni
Wong handsome gawe lara ati aja

Quantcast lunga redeemed suwe
Lawas through sewengi
Kula believe bae
Nyatane Kakang lying

Angel era Saiki
Entire real lanang
Sing mung ana Siji
Siji kang wis duwe rabbi

Dim along the coast road
Sweet girl on the edge role in midang
Quantcast happy parents can bantui wong
Sometimes crying until when urip mengkenen

*** Download Tarling dim

Maybe this is a unique side of this song. With the theme song that tells about the life of the little guy, who continue to strive to meet all your life to love and treasure. Love is for love towards loved ones, and property for their needs. So much so that Gus Dur had to be angry if he was listening to this song on the radio, suddenly interrupted by ads. Unmitigated, the radio announcer who was on duty at that time did he direct any contact by telephone, was rebuked for having cut off her favorite songs.

From this we can conclude that what an extraordinary figure of Gus Dur. A Teacher Nations, former leader of the country, with everything all the charisma and honor, which is still "time-sempatnya" listening to the shouts from the small people chant tone.

Gus Dur ... Goodbye.
