Di bawah langit biru yang cerah, Candi Borobudur berdiri megah dan tenang.

Under the bright blue sky, the Borobudur Temple stood majestic and serene.

Borobudur, sebuah candi Buddha kuno di Jawa Tengah, berhiaskan ukiran rumit yang menceritakan ajaran Buddha.

Borobudur, an ancient Buddhist temple in Central Java, is adorned with intricate carvings that narrate the teachings of Buddha.

Di kejauhan, Gunung Merapi menjulang, menambah keanggunan lanskap sekaligus ancaman yang tersembunyi.

In the distance, Mount Merapi loomed, adding elegance to the landscape while also posing a hidden threat.

Rama, seorang pemandu muda yang sangat mengenal candi itu, bersiap-siap untuk memulai tur hari itu.

Rama, a young guide well-versed with the temple, was getting ready to start the day’s tour.

Turis-turis sudah berkumpul.

Tourists had already gathered.

Di antara mereka adalah Wulan, seorang turis yang sangat tertarik pada sejarah dan spiritualitas.

Among them was Wulan, a tourist deeply interested in history and spirituality.

Rama menyambut mereka dengan senyum ramah.

Rama greeted them with a friendly smile.

"Selamat datang di Candi Borobudur," kata Rama.

"Welcome to Borobudur Temple," said Rama.

"Hari ini, kita akan menjelajahi keindahan dan makna mendalam candi ini.

"Today, we will explore the beauty and deep meaning of this temple."

"Saat tur berlangsung, Rama menjelaskan setiap relief dan cerita di baliknya.

As the tour progressed, Rama explained each relief and the stories behind them.

Wulan mendengarkan dengan antusias, kagum akan kedalaman pengetahuan Rama.

Wulan listened enthusiastically, amazed at the depth of Rama's knowledge.

Tiba-tiba, suara gemuruh terdengar dari kejauhan.

Suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard in the distance.

Rama berhenti bicara, pandangannya beralih ke arah Gunung Merapi.

Rama stopped talking, his gaze shifting towards Mount Merapi.

Asap tebal mulai membubung dari puncak gunung itu.

Thick smoke began to rise from the mountain’s peak.

"Gunung Merapi meletus!

"Mount Merapi is erupting!"

" teriak Jaya, seorang ahli vulkanologi yang juga teman lama Rama.

shouted Jaya, a volcanologist and old friend of Rama.

Suasana menjadi kacau.

The atmosphere turned chaotic.

Para turis mulai panik, mencoba mencari jalan keluar.

The tourists started to panic, trying to find a way out.

Rama dengan cepat berusaha menenangkan mereka.

Rama quickly tried to calm them.

"Tolong tenang.

"Please remain calm.

Ikuti arah saya.

Follow my lead."

"Rama memandu para turis menuju pintu keluar, sementara Jaya memberikan instruksi untuk menghindari bahaya.

Rama guided the tourists towards the exit, while Jaya provided instructions to avoid danger.

Wulan membantu membawa barang-barang penting.

Wulan helped carry essential items.

Di tengah kebingungan, Rama melihat ke arah candi.

Amidst the confusion, Rama looked back at the temple.

Ada beberapa artefak sakral yang harus dilindungi.

There were some sacred artifacts that needed protection.

"Saya harus kembali," kata Rama kepada Jaya.

"I have to go back," Rama said to Jaya.

"Saya tidak bisa meninggalkan artefak itu.

"I can’t leave those artifacts behind."

"Jaya menatapnya dalam-dalam, kemudian mengangguk.

Jaya looked deeply into his eyes, then nodded.

"Baiklah, tapi hati-hati.

"Alright, but be careful."

"Rama berlari kembali ke dalam candi, mengumpulkan artefak-artefak berharga.

Rama ran back into the temple, gathering the precious artifacts.

Debu vulkanik semakin tebal, membuat napasnya sesak.

The volcanic ash grew thicker, making it hard for him to breathe.

Namun, kemauannya tidak surut.

However, his resolve did not waver.

Lalu, sebuah ledakan besar terjadi.

Then, a huge explosion occurred.

Lava mengalir semakin dekat menuju candi.

Lava was flowing closer to the temple.

Di saat genting itu, Rama harus membuat keputusan cepat.

In that critical moment, Rama had to make a swift decision.

Keselamatan para turis atau artefak-artefak berharga?

The safety of the tourists or the valuable artifacts?

Dengan tekad, Rama mengarahkan para turis ke tempat aman lebih dulu.

With determination, Rama directed the tourists to safety first.

Setelah memastikan mereka selamat, ia kembali lagi untuk menyelamatkan artefak-artefak penting.

After ensuring they were safe, he went back to rescue the important artifacts.

Dengan bantuan Jaya dan Wulan, mereka berhasil membawa beberapa artefak ke tempat aman.

With the help of Jaya and Wulan, they managed to bring several artifacts to safety.

Saat erupsi mencapai puncaknya, Rama, Jaya, dan Wulan berlindung di sebuah tempat yang aman.

As the eruption reached its peak, Rama, Jaya, and Wulan took shelter in a safe place.

Borobudur tampak sebagian tertutup abu, namun candi tetap berdiri kokoh.

Borobudur was partially covered in ash, yet the temple remained standing tall.

"Saya berhasil," kata Rama dengan napas tersengal.

"I made it," Rama said, panting.

"Kita semua selamat dan artefak juga terlindungi.

"We are all safe and the artifacts are protected too."

""Terima kasih, Rama," kata Wulan.

"Thank you, Rama," said Wulan.

"Kamu sangat berani.

"You were very brave."

"Rama tersenyum, merasa lega.

Rama smiled, feeling relieved.

Ia pun sadar bahwa pentingnya menyeimbangkan antara menyelamatkan nyawa manusia dan melestarikan sejarah.

He realized the importance of balancing between saving human lives and preserving history.

Tanggung jawabnya semakin mendalam, baik untuk melindungi wisatawan maupun warisan budaya Borobudur.

His responsibility deepened, both to protect the tourists and the cultural heritage of Borobudur.

Saat malam tiba, langit terhias cahaya bintang, menandai akhir yang damai dari hari yang penuh ketegangan.

As night fell, the sky was adorned with starlight, marking a peaceful end to the tense day.

Borobudur bersinar dalam cahaya bintang, simbol kekuatan dan ketahanan.

Borobudur glowed under the starlight, a symbol of strength and resilience.

Pemandangan ini mengingatkan Rama akan janji yang ia buat pada dirinya: untuk selalu menjaga keseimbangan antara kehidupan manusia dan mengawal sejarah yang berharga.

This scene reminded Rama of the promise he made to himself: to always maintain the balance between human life and safeguarding valuable history.

Dengan itu, mereka meninggalkan candi, membawa pelajaran berharga dalam hati mereka.

With that, they left the temple, carrying valuable lessons in their hearts.
