ketika pria itu menerka bahwa dirinya
adalah dirinya sendiri sambil memetik
helaian daun teh dari dalam ingatan
di atas meja tergambar pohon bergamot
dan membuat hujan dalam cangkir ingin
gerimis di atasnya namun ia curiga
kalau ada seseorang berteduh di sana
daun teh berguguran dalam genangan hujan
sedangkan pria itu kemudian lebih yakin
kalau ia adalah awan kecil yang menguap
dan mengapung di atas secangkir teh
malam sudahlah larut dan gerimis merintik
dalam sebuah gambar di dekat secangkir
teh hangat yang sedang menerka dirinya
adalah sebuah kamar, adalah seseorang itu

Earl Grey
night had dissolved into this room
when a man thought he was
he himself at the same time plucked
some tea leaves from his mind
on a table drawn a bergamot tree
which made a cup of rain long to
fell on it but had suspected if there
was somebody shading beneath the tree
tea leaves was falling unto the rain pool
when the man after while became certain
that he actually was an evaporated
tiny cloud that floated above the tea cup
night had dissolved and it was drizzling
in a drawing near a warm cup of tea
whose thought itself was the room,
itself was that somebody
