BAHASA INDONESIA -
1 Burung murai tela bernyanyi riang,
Tanda malam akan diganti siang
Ya Tuhan Allah, Raja semesta,
PadaMu saja kami berserah.

2 Fajar terang terbit mengusir siang,
dan kegelapan dosapun terbenam,
Kristus Tuhan, Fajar kebgankitan,
sudah mengalahkan kematian.

3 Kami terbangun dari tidur pulas,
dan menikmati kasih tak terbalas,
Ya Tuhan mentari kebenaran,
Anug'rahkan kami pengharapan.

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries. Go to person page >
