Paroles et traduction Iis Dahlia - Setara Payung

Setara Payung

Lelaki tinggi setara payung
Tempat berlindung di kala panas
Nak berteduh di kala hujan

Mengapa dekat kau bagai ulat?
Dalam kepompong menanti sayap
Lalu kau hinggap ke bunga-bunga

Tiada ladang tak punya rimba
Mengapa kanda menawar cinta?

Satu kurang, apalagi dua
Hidup dimadu, apa rasanya?
Bagi ranjang ke sini, ke sana
Hidup dimadu, apa rasanya?

Engkau bakar kasih tanpa ukur nafsu
Beratnya beban wanita
Hanyalah air mata yang tercurah kecewa
Tak berdaya

Kau memeras tebu, sudah punya gula
Bukankah sama rasanya?
Tidur dengan wanita, diriku kurang apa
Kepadamu?

(Punya peci) Peci, masih cantik (masih cantik, pakai topi baru lagi)
Ho, ho
(Punya istri) Sayang, sayang (yang penyayang, masih kurang)
Engkau ingin nikah lagi, engkau ingin kawin lagi

Mengapa dekat kau bagai ulat?
Dalam kepompong menanti sayap
Lalu kau hinggap ke bunga-bunga

Tiada ladang tak punya rimba
Mengapa kanda menawar cinta?

Satu kurang, apalagi dua
Hidup dimadu, apa rasanya?
Bagi ranjang ke sini, ke sana
Hidup dimadu, apa rasanya?

Engkau bakar kasih tanpa ukur nafsu
Beratnya beban wanita
Hanyalah air mata yang tercurah kecewa
Tak berdaya

Kau memeras tebu, sudah punya gula
Bukankah sama rasanya?
Tidur dengan wanita, diriku kurang apa
Kepadamu?

(Punya peci) Peci, masih cantik (masih cantik, pakai topi baru lagi)
Ho, ho
(Punya istri) Sayang, sayang (yang penyayang, masih kurang)
Engkau ingin nikah lagi, engkau ingin kawin lagi

An Umbrella's Equal

A man as tall as an umbrella
Providing shelter from the heat
Seeking refuge from the rain

Why are you close to me like a caterpillar?
Within a cocoon, awaiting wings
Then you alight on flowers

There is no field without a jungle
Why do you bargain for my love?

One is not enough, what if I have two?
What does it feel like to live in polygamy?
To share a bed first with one, then with another
What does it feel like to live in polygamy?

You burn with passion without measuring your desires
Such is the burden of women
Tears of disappointment are my only recourse
I am powerless

You have squeezed the sugarcane and now you have sugar
Isn't the taste the same?
What have I lacked as your lover?
To you?

(You have a cap) A cap, still beautiful (still beautiful, you wear a new hat)
Ho, ho
(You have a wife) My darling, my darling (my love, still not enough)
You want to marry again, you want to marry again

Why are you close to me like a caterpillar?
Within a cocoon, awaiting wings
Then you alight on flowers

There is no field without a jungle
Why do you bargain for my love?

One is not enough, what if I have two?
What does it feel like to live in polygamy?
To share a bed first with one, then with another
What does it feel like to live in polygamy?

You burn with passion without measuring your desires
Such is the burden of women
Tears of disappointment are my only recourse
I am powerless

You have squeezed the sugarcane and now you have sugar
Isn't the taste the same?
What have I lacked as your lover?
To you?

(You have a cap) A cap, still beautiful (still beautiful, you wear a new hat)
Ho, ho
(You have a wife) My darling, my darling (my love, still not enough)
You want to marry again, you want to marry again
