Chrysogonus' Translation #33 - from Anna Couani's "mimosa"

Putri Malu

helai mungil daun putri malu
menadah tetes air hujan
dan rantingnya meraih
menyeberang pintu kami
terguncang, meneteskan
tetes-tetes

air tetesan

each tiny leaf of the mimosa
holds a drop of rainwater
and the branches now stretch
across our front door
shaking they drop
dropping
drops
