The Light is Better than the Dark
Tri Budhi Sastrio
Which one is the first, the dark or the light?
Many prefer the dark, many prefer the light.
If I have to choose then I choose the dark.
The reason is simple that is no reason at all.
So just the dark first and then come the light.
Dark cannot change by itself into the bright
But the bright can transform into the dark
If the energy feeding it suddenly shut down.
Because of that how important the energy,
The eternal energy which support the light.
In short, even though dark may come first
But the light is the goal, but the bright is ok.
Let's preserve the light, let's keep the bright,
As it is written by a prophet long time ago. Â
Then I saw that wisdom is better than foolish
Ways--as the light is better than the dark.
The wise man's eyes are in his head, but
The foolish man goes walking in the dark;
But still I saw that the same event comes to them all.
Then said I in my heart: As it comes to
The foolish man, so will it come to me;
So why have I been wise overmuch?
Then I said in my heart: This again is to no purpose.
Of the wise man, as of the foolish man,
There is no memory for ever, seeing that
Those who now are will have gone from memory in the days to come.
See how death comes to the wise as to the foolish!
So I was hating life, because everything under the sun was evil to me:
All is to no purpose and desire for wind.
Hate had I for all my work which
I had done, because the man ...
The prophet voice sounds unoptimistic
When he compare the dark to the light,
To the live of the foolish and the wise,
Because in fact the end of both of them
Is almost similar that is gone and perish
Forever, but I still prefer the bright light.

In twilight's hush, where shadows dance and play,
The light of day succumbs to night's sway.
The stars appear, like diamonds in the sky,
As darkness reigns, and all is nigh.
But oh, the light, it shines so bright,
A beacon in the darkness, a guiding light.
It chases away the shadows, with grace,
And brings us hope, in its embrace.
For in the light, we find our way,
And all our fears, they fade away.
The darkness may be deep and wide,
But the light, it never hides.
