A
Akmal Ariffin

The poem is about a woman who was deceived by a man with calm, quiet eyes that were actually filled with lies. She thought his sad eyes meant he truly loved her, but she later learns he just wanted pleasure. The poem advises women to listen to advice not to compromise with pleasure-seeking men. It says to make sure someone is truly nice before trusting them, so you don't end up hurt and with questions about what happened.

HE HAD SUCH QUIET EYES BIBSY SOENHARJO
SYNOPSI The poem is about a woman who has S been deceived to think that she was loved by a man with quiet eyes. She suffers for this and only learns on hindsight not to trust or give in to men who seek women only for pleasure. The poet gives an advice on being able to recognise what is true and what is not, when a person is truly friendly and when he is not. You may lose in the game of love and give your heart away, but knowing the truth of the situation will mean that you will not suffer any lasting losses.
THE POEM LINE BY LINE STANZA 1 MEANING BY LINE He had such quiet eyes His eyes were calm and quiet She did not realise She did not know They were two pools of lies- His eyes were like two pools filled with lies Layered with thinnest ice Thinly veiled, like very thin ice To her, those quiet eyes To the woman, those calm and quiet eyes Were breathing desolate sighs Looked very sad and desolate Imploring her to be nice The eyes were begging her to be nice to him And to render him to paradise And to give him happiness and bliss so that he would feel like he was in paradise (heaven)
STANZA 2 MEANING BY LINE If only shed been wise The woman wished she had been wiser in her past actions And had listened to the advice And she had listened to the sound advice given to her by people who cared about her Never to compromise They had advised her not to give up her moral values or principles
With pleasure-seeking guys When she was with men who wanted only pleasure and fun Shed be free from the hows and whys If she had listened to them, she would not be haunted by questions of hows and whys and the difficult situation she was in.
STANZA 3 MEANING BY LINE Now heres a bit of advice Let me give you a bit of advice Be sure that nice really means nice Make sure that the person you think is nice, is truly sincere and trustworthy
Then youll never be losing at dice Then, you will not lose in a game of chance or a game of love where you can lose your heart to an undeserving man Though you may lose your heart once or twice Even if you should fall in love and lose your heart to love once or twice
