Tall Tree, Nest of the Wind: The Javanese Shadow-play Dewa Ruci Performed by Ki Anom Soeroto - A Study in Performance Philology. Singapore: NUS Press.
1. Illustration music refers to songs where the lyrics have no direct relationship to the story being presented. During the opening dance of the kayon, Enthus Susmono uses not only the Javanese version of the kayon but also the Balinese one (the small, skewed-ellipse shaped kayon), as a sign of respect for his Balinese audience MEV.
2. Kayu gung susuhing angin lit. kayu besar tempat angin bersarang [the big tree where the wind nests]. However, the krama inggil[high Javanese] for kayu is kajěng, which is equivalent to karěp[wish/desire]. Susuhing angin is regarded as a symbol for breathing. The phrase can be given a spiritual meaning, so that "a big wish or desire can be achieved through the control of breathing" IK.
3. Durna was hit on his head because he did not immediately finish his sentence. This causes him to swear IK.
4. Menjelma [to reincarnate] MEV.
5. Kawěruh Sangkan Paraning Dumadi. Kawěruh [knowledge], sangkan [origin], paraning [destination], and dumadi [life]. These words refer to the understanding of the origin and destination of life, which leads to an attitude of respect and humility, based on the awareness of one’s own place in life. It will be described in more detail at a later part of the performance, during the conversation between Dewa Ruci and Bima at 00:37:54 MEV.
6. In Bali, the Javanese punokawan[clown servants] are not as recognizable as the rest of the Mahabharata characters MEV.
7. Belung nangka [the heart, or seeds, of the jackfruit]. In Java, the seeds of the jackfruit can be boiled until they become soft and eaten (this is called beton). A cup of coffee and boiled beton are usually taken in the afternoon IK.
8. The dialogues from 00:12:25 to 00:12:30 use the Banyumasan dialect of the Javanese language IK.
9. Koes Plus is a musical group in Indonesia, formed in 1969 as a continuation of Koes Bersaudara. The band was famous in the 1970s and is often considered as the pioneer of pop and rock 'n' roll music in Indonesia. IK
10. The joke is that these lines rhyme in the original MEV.
11. Alamin is the same as alam [world] IK.
12. Pondok Pesantren are Islamic boarding schools in Indonesia IK.
13. Matamu! [your eye!] is a joking expression of anger MEV.
14. This is a prayer in Islam to ask for forgiveness from Allah IK.

16. This is a modified Indonesian saying MEV.
17. Muamalat refers to acts involving interaction and exchange among people IK.
18. Makalah is a presentation based on a written manuscript about a certain topic containing facts and opinions IK.
19. This is probably a reference to Suharto MEV.
20. Here, the dalang is imitating the voice of B.J. Habibie, the third president of Indonesia IK.
21. Qolbu [heart]. Manajemen qolbu means to take care that one's heart is always pure, kind and good IK.
22. Gus Dur is the nickname of Abdurrahman Wahid (1940-2009), a religious scholar and the fourth President of Indonesia from 1999 to 2001. During his government he promoted inter-religious tolerance MEV.
23. Muhaimin Iskandar (Cak Imin) is the nephew of Gus Dur and the head of the executive council of the PKB (Partai Kebangkitan Indonesia – National Awakening Party). On 27 March 2008, Gus Dur asked Muhaimin to step down. Muhaimin refused and filed a lawsuit against Gus Dur, and his position was ratified by the trial MEV.
24. In this passage, Enthus imitates Gus Dur’s characteristic voice and way of speaking MEV.
25. SBY (Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono) was President of Indonesia from 2004 to 2014. JK (Jusof Kalla) was Vice President from 2004 to 2009 and he is also the incumbent vice president for term 2014-2018 MEV.
26. This catchphrase is Gus Dur's trademark, a way of saying that things should not be seen as difficult IK.
