Untuk itu Insya Allah tanpa bermaksud menggurui, di Blog Ku Nyoba ini, admin akan konsisten memposting artikel berbahasa Inggris dengan maksud untuk mempelajari tata bahasa dan menghafal kosa kata.
IN THE LAND OF THE PODS
Penghafalan kosa-kata nantinya akan kita sajikan dalam bentuk puisi, cerita, percakapan, dan lainnya. Semoga bisa menumbuhkan minat kita untuk belajar bahasa Inggris. Untuk yang pertama silahkan perhatikan puisi di bawah ini.
All the Lonely People
by John Lennon & Paul
McCartney
Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Eleanor Rigby picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has
been,
Lives in a dream,
Waits at the window
Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by
the door.
Who is it for?
All the only people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Father Mackenzie, writing the
words
Of a sermon that no one will hear,
No one comes near.
Look at him working,
Darning his socks in the night
When there's nobody there.
What does he care?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Eleanor Rigby, died in the church
And was buried along with her
name,
Nobody came.
Father Mackenzie, wiping the dirt
From his hands as he walks from the
grave,
No one was saved.
All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?
