Paroles et traduction Iwan Fals - Tarmijah Dan Problemanya

Tarmijah Dan Problemanya

Cerita duka pembantu rumah tangga
Harga Tarmijah sebulan delapan ribu rupiah

Di pagi buta sedang pulas tidur kita
Neng Tarmijah sudah bangun lalu bekerja

Siapkan sarapan
Bersihkan halaman
Siapkan pakaian
Seragam sekolah untuk anak majikan

Setelah beres, Tarmijah dipanggil nyonya
Pergi ke pasar belanja ini hari

Asin sedikit, Tarmijah di caci maki
Masakan lezat tak pernah dipuji
Oh, sudah pasti keki
Namun hanya disimpan dalam hati

Di malam minggu anak majikan berdandan
Sambut sang pacar itu suatu kewajiban

Nona Tarmijah tak mau ketinggalan
Lalu berdandan, siap untuk berkencan

Nyonya majikan lihat Tarmijah berkencan
Di muka rumah terhalang pagar halaman

Nyonya naik pitam, Tarmijah kena hantam
Nyonya naik pitam, Tarmijah kena hantam
Tarmijah K.O
Tarmijah K.O

Tarmijah's Problem

The tale of a domestic worker
Tarmijah receives eight thousand rupiahs a month

In the early morning, as we sleep soundly
Neng Tarmijah is already awake and working

Preparing breakfast
Cleaning the yard
Preparing clothes
Uniforms for the employer's children

Once finished, the mistress summons Tarmijah
To go to the market to shop for the day

A pinch of salt, and Tarmijah is scolded
Delicious food is never praised
Oh, she must be vexed
But she keeps it to herself

On Saturday nights, the employer's daughter dresses up
To meet her boyfriend, it's a must

Nona Tarmijah doesn't want to miss out
So she dresses up, ready for a date

The mistress sees Tarmijah on a date
Outside the house, behind the garden fence

The mistress flies into a rage, Tarmijah is struck
The mistress flies into a rage, Tarmijah is struck
Tarmijah is knocked out
Tarmijah is knocked out
