Ekspresi
Indonesian Idol Finalists made a remake of Ekspresi!
I asked Ifa for a translation, i'll post it here (although she said it's more poetic in the original). I really really like this song, especially when the Indonesian ryuugakusei sang this in Tokyo.
Can't wait for summer!

EKSPRESI
Begitu banyak yang ada di hati
There are so many things inside the heart
Menanti terkuak
Waiting to come out
Ingin mengungkapkan dan mencurahkan berbagai rasa dan kesan tentang kehidupan
I want to express and pour the varied feelings and impressions about life
Begitu sarat yang ada di benak menunggu tersirat
In my head, there are lots of things waiting to be said implicitly
Ada segala cara dan berbagai jalan
There are more than one ways and means
Untuk mewujudkan hasrat di hati, khayalan ke dalam cipta dan seni
To realize the passion inside the heart and dreams into works and arts
(***)
Mari berkarya dalam puisi dan lagu
Let's compose poetry and songs
Musik dan tari
Music and dances
Layar perak, panggung gerak
The silver screen (which means Indonesian movies), the motion stage (probably refers to drama on stage)
Adalah tempat kita, insan dunia, ekspresikan diri
All of them are the place for us, human being in this world, to express ourselves
Begitu sarat hal yang mungkin dan dapat kita perbuat
There are lots of things which are possible and we're able to do
Untuk berbagi rasa, berbagi suka
To share the feelings, to share the pleasure
Dengan cara yang mulia
In a noble way
Wujudkan semua harapan ke dalam cipta dan seni
Realize all the hopes into works and arts
