Iwan Fals - Ibu (Official Lyric Video)
About this Song
The Indonesian pop sound "Ibu" by Iwan Fals is an official lyric video. Iwan Fals is credited for both the song and its lyrics. The lyrics describe a journey of thousands of miles, undertaken by a mother for her child, enduring hardships and walking until her feet are full of blood and pus. The lyrics compare the mother's love to air, something given freely and without expectation of repayment, and express the child's inability to fully reciprocate such profound affection. The song conveys a deep longing to embrace the mother and cry in her lap, to fall asleep there as in childhood, and to be covered in her prayers. It repeatedly questions how one could ever repay a mother for such sacrifices and unconditional love. The painting by Suhirman is featured in the video. The title "Ibu" translates to "Mother" in English, directly reflecting the central theme of the lyrics. The song is part of a collection of Iwan Fals's works, highlighting its significance within his broader musical output.
