Let's go green
This Javanese sentence consists of "ayu or hayu" (beautiful, beautify, pretty, peaceful) and bawana or buwana (the world, universe, nature).
Literally the sentence means "to beautify the beauty of the world''. In my opinion, it is an invitation, a suggestion for others to preserve the environment/nature, to live harmoniously with nature and other people (socially, culturally and religiously). In modern terms, among others we can say Let's go green.

Flowing in the Blow of Nature
saya cari di google terjemahannya dalam bahasa Indonesia adalah "mengalir dalam hembusan alam", yang dalam bahasa Inggrisnya mungkin adalah "flowing in the blow of nature". bagaimana pendapat rekan-rekan penerjemah yang tinggal di Yogya?
Note from asker:
A competent speaker of English would never say 'flowing in the blow of nature'; there is no such thing in English as 'the blow of nature'. Perhaps this is a correct literal translation but would not suffice as a professional translation. |

Unfortunately, I am not sure of the appropriate English equivalent.
