			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by: Dutamardin Umar/Virginia</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s sing the song once and remember this song from Ibu Sud. It is as if this diaspora is intended for us:</p>
<p><em>I do not forget my homeland</em><br />
<em>I remember fond memories of my life</em><br />
<em>Even if I go away</em><br />
<em>None will be lost from the heart</em><br />
<em>I love my loving land</em><br />
<em>and it is appreciated</em></p>
<p><em>Although I spent time in a lot of countries</em><br />
<em>Which famous people say is a scenic view,</em><br />
<em>It is in the village and my home</em><br />
<em>Where I felt happy</em><br />
<em>I will not forget my land</em><br />
<em>you are my pride</em></p>
<p>The Marvin Center at George Washington University resonated with this song that made goose bumps. It was not only sung by the Cordana Youth Group, but the Indonesian audience also sang along. The event began with praises to God by way of Islam and Christianity, and it went in order quite well, describing the diversity of Indonesia as represented by a variety of songs and traditional dance presented by a local orchestra IKPA (Indonesian Kids Performing Arts), Rumah Gadang USA, and the Cordona Choir from Indonesia.</p>
<p>Two thumbs up for Nusantara Foundation for bringing these performances to us! This cultural event, which proves that when we are we living abroad, we are true ambassadors for the nation to continue preserving and promoting the culture of Indonesia.</p>
<hr width="90%" />
<p>Mari bernyanyi dulu dan camkan lagu karangan Ibu Sud ini.<br />
Seakan memang ditujukan untuk kita yang berdiaspora ini:</p>
<p>Tanah airku tidak kulupakan<br />
Kan terkenang selama hidupku<br />
Biarpun saya pergi jauh<br />
Tidak kan hilang dari kalbu<br />
Tanah ku yang kucintai<br />
Engkau kuhargai</p>
<p>Walaupun banyak negri kujalani<br />
Yang masyhur permai dikata orang<br />
Tetapi kampung dan rumahku<br />
Di sanalah kurasa senang<br />
Tanahku tak kulupakan<br />
Engkau kubanggakan</p>
<p>Theater Mervin GWU bergema dengan lagu yang membuat merinding ini.<br />
Bukan saja dibawakan oleh pemuda rombongan Cordona tapi para tapi penonton<br />
Indonesia juga ikut menyanyi.</p>
<p>Acara yang di mulai dengan pujian kepada Tuhan dengan cara Islam dan<br />
Kristen, berlangsung cukup runut dan baik dalam menggambarkan kebhinekaan<br />
Indonesia yang diwakili oleh berbagai lagu dan tari daerah yang dibawakan<br />
artis lokal IKPA dan Rumah Gadang serta Cordona Choir dari Indonesia.</p>
<p>Dua jempol untuk Nusantara Foundation sebagai inisiator pergelaran<br />
budaya ini, yang membuktikan bahwa kita kita yang tinggal di rantau<br />
inilah yang sebenar duta bangsa yang secara ikhlas terus melestarikan<br />
dan mempromosikan budaya Indonesia.</p>
