Paroles et traduction Dato' DJ Dave - Fatwa Pujangga

Fatwa Pujangga

Telah ku terima suratmu nan lalu
Penuh sanjungan kata merayu
Syair dan pantun tersusun indah, sayang
Bagaikan sabda fatwa pujangga

Ku simpan suratmu nan itu
Bak pusaka yang sangat bermutu
Walau kita tak pernah bersua, sayang
Cukup sudah tandamu setia

Tapi sayang, sayang, sayang
Seribu kali sayang
Ke manakah risalahku
Ku alamatkan?

Terimalah jawapanku ini
Hanya doa dan restu Ilahi
Semogalah, dik, kau tak putus asa, sayang
Pasti kelak kita kan berjumpa

Tapi sayang, sayang, sayang
Seribu kali sayang
Ke manakah risalahku
Ku alamatkan?

Terimalah jawapanku ini
Hanya doa dan restu Ilahi
Semogalah, dik, kau tak putus asa, sayang
Pasti kelak kita kan berjumpa

A Lady's Decree

Your gracious letter I did receive
Full of flattery, sweet words that deceive
Poems and verses, beautifully laid, my dear
Like the sacred decree of a poet revered

I cherish your letter, it's a treasure to hold
A relic of great worth, pure as gold
Though we've never met, my dearest one
Your words alone prove your love begun

But alas, my love, alas
A thousand times, alas
To whom have I addressed my plea?
To whom is my message sent?

Please accept my humble reply
Prayers and blessings from the divine
May you never lose hope, my dear
For someday, surely, we'll draw near

But alas, my love, alas
A thousand times, alas
To whom have I addressed my plea?
To whom is my message sent?

Please accept my humble reply
Prayers and blessings from the divine
May you never lose hope, my dear
For someday, surely, we'll draw near
