PASANG SURUT KEJAYAAN MELAYU DALAM SYAIR NASIB MELAYU
Abstract
Syair is one of literary works which is well known in Malay society. One of syair exists in this age is Syair Nasib Melayu written by Riau culturalist, Tenas Effendy. This research aims to analyze the first pait of the syair. It tells us the early development of Malay, from Malay Kingdom in Bintan until this modem age. From the stages of Malay development presented in this syair, it can be concluded that Malay people starts from glory toward decline. Malay tuah (prestige) seems to be declined because Malay people are powerless to compete with other people.
