in the middle of a quiet night
wishing oneself to rest
after a hard day's work
but the sad news came
no one can predict
West Sumatra, now again visited by sad news
not yet separated from the sadness that was
but now disaster has struck again
how unfortunate west Sumatra
with causes that no one knows
why sad news often comes
however, there will always be pleasure
in every hardship that is obtained
hurry up and get better my West Sumatra
we miss your former beauty
