Lyrics and translation Chrisye - Kalimantan

Kalimantan

Sungai Mahakam terbentang
Bagai membelah dunia
Berkayuh ku ke seberang
Mencari dambaan jiwa

Gunung biru menghijau
Berhutan bagai beludru
Juwita, di mana engkau?
Hatiku semakin sendu

Ke mana 'kan kucari?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?
Ke mana 'kan kucari?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?

Kudengar kicau burung
Di pohon bercanda riang
Menghilanglah rasa murung
Hatiku pun merasa senang

Wahai kau, burung enggang
Bolehkah daku bertanya?
Di mana kucari sayang?
Dambaanku tak kunjung datang

Ke mana 'kan kucari?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?
Ke mana 'kan kucari?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?

Di padang belantara
Terdapat rumah panjang
Mungkinkah kasih di sana?
Jika ada 'kan kujelang

Ternyata kudapati
Hanyalah bekas bara
Ke mana lagi kau kucari?
Mungkin kita tak pernah jumpa

Ke mana, oh ke mana?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?
Ke mana, oh ke mana?

Kalimantan

Mahakam River stretches
As if dividing the world
I paddle to the other side
Searching for my heart's desire

Blue mountains verdant green
Forested like velvet
My love, where are you?
My heart grows more and more heavy

Where shall I seek you?
Where, oh where?
Where shall I seek you?
Where, oh where?

I hear the birdsong
In the trees, they play and frolic
My melancholy fades away
My heart is filled with joy

Oh you, hornbill
May I ask you a question?
Where can I find my love?
My beloved, who never comes

Where shall I seek you?
Where, oh where?
Where shall I seek you?
Where, oh where?

In the wilderness
There stands a longhouse
Could my love be there?
If she is, I will welcome her

But I find only
The remnants of a fire
Where else shall I seek you?
Perhaps we are not meant to meet

Where, oh where?
Where, oh where?
Where, oh where?
