Indah namamu, seindah hatimu
Indah hatimu, seindah senyummu
Entah apa salahmu, hidup tak seindah dulu
Saat masih dalam timang ibu
Apakah kesedihan kini hidupmu?
Entah kapan Tuhan kan bahagiakanmu Farida
Perjuanganmu terangi jiwaku, jiwa mereka
Semoga juga jiwamu

Your pretty name reflects your beauty heart
Your beauty heart goes along with your precious smile
I don’t know why God took your happy part,
As when you were in a childhood memories pile
Is sadness now the life for you?
I don’t know when God will give the happiness back to you
Even His last give to you called cancer 
You embraced it as though it was a gem wrapped in golden
Farida, your courage built me better
You keep saying, that God’s love always proven
A clear magnificent soul of diamond
Strong and can’t be broken 
Your bravery shines my soul, their souls
And hopefully, your own soul

Farida was my auntie (my mom's twin). She passed in 2006, the Bahasa version was made in 2005. She was really special for me, when she passed I felt like I lost my own mom. She was what I wrote in the poem, even bigger! Thanks for the comment, Andrea. :)
