Paroles et traduction Grace Simon - Melati penuh noda

Melati penuh noda

Kisah sedih seorang pemuda
Pernah gagal dalam asmara
Hancurlah hatinya, hancurlah hatinya
Yang duduk lunglai, memetik harpa
Yang duduk lunglai, memetik harpa

Bunga melati pujaannya
Dari kuncup ia sirami
Harapan yang suci t'lah diucapkannya
Kelak akan memetik bunganya
Kelak akan memetik bunganya

Dia pun pergi berkelana
Demi masa depan mereka
Kuncup melati mulai mengembang
Semerbak harum melati

Banyaklah kumbang datang menjelang
Menghisap sari bunga melati

Sepulang dari berkelana
Betapa hancur hatinya
Melati pujaan yang didambakannya
Kini telah layu penuh noda
Kini telah layu penuh noda

Oh, banyaklah kumbang datang menjelang
Menghisap sari bunga melati

Sepulang dari berkelana
Betapa hancur hatinya
Melati pujaan yang didambakannya
Kini telah layu penuh noda

Kini telah layu penuh noda
Kini telah layu penuh noda

The Stained Jasmine

A young man's sad story
Who once failed in love
His heart was broken, his heart was broken
He sat there limp, playing the harp
He sat there limp, playing the harp

The jasmine he adored
He watered it from a bud
He uttered a pure hope
One day he would pick its flower
One day he would pick its flower

He went on a journey
For their future
The jasmine bud began to bloom
The jasmine's fragrant scent

Many beetles came near
Sucking the nectar of the jasmine flower

When he returned from his journey
How broken his heart was
The jasmine he yearned for
Was now wilted and stained
Was now wilted and stained

Oh, many beetles came near
Sucking the nectar of the jasmine flower

When he returned from his journey
How broken his heart was
The jasmine he yearned for
Was now wilted and stained

Was now wilted and stained
Was now wilted and stained
