Sang Saka Merah Putih (Poetry)

---

burning patriotism

Waving unity and national unity

Wiggling about the booming struggle

The Saka Merah Putih fluttered relentlessly

A fiery flame of fire

White as a purely sacred goal

Red as a sign of a daring soul

Flutter is Red and White My Saka

Because the nation of Indonesia must progress

Though obstacles are always annoying

But the people are united to defend you

Merah Putih, reminds us (us all) for the services of the heroes from all corners of the country to crush, drive away, defend the country from colonialism.

Remind us of the blood and bone sacrifice of the sincerity of the struggle with the willingness to sacrifice for the birth of this nation. Body and soul are at stake only for the Saka Merah Putih which is a sign that we are free from colonialism.

The courage and sanctity of the fighters became the motto to crush the invaders until it was engraved into a red and white.

The red and white saka, the red and white flag became the sign of freedom from all things. The spirit of the red and white saka became a sign of waving for all generations today to jointly build in the frame of creation, works and real intention in the eyes of the world.
