Paroles et traduction Ramli Sarip feat. Albert Seah and Hawk - Untuk Generasiku

Untuk Generasiku

Andainya kau ingin menangis
Apa yang hendak di tangiskan
Begitu pun airmata mu... berdarah...
Telah kering peluh di tubuh
Pakaian telah kian lusuh
Daun usia makin luruh... kebumi...
Gugur daun manjadi baja
Gugur kita tak siapa hirau
Kita bukan golongan elite di kota...
Orang tengah menghisap darah kita
Hanya lintah darat berkuku besi
Kais makan esok hari
Kau di himpit amalan korupsi
Kau menumpang di bumi sendiri
Apa nasib generasi ku nanti
Hendak mengadu pada siapa
Bicara kita tiada adap
Mereka mencipta kan kasta... berbeza...
Dari mana datang nya lintah itu?
Kerana harta kami kau perhamba
Kais pagi makan esok hari
Kau di himpit amalan korupsi
Kau menumpang di bumi sendiri
Apa nasib generasi ku?
Apa nasib generasi ku? huu woooo
Ku turut kata menjadi kota
Tapi kata menjadi dusta
Yang kaya terus mengumpul harta
Hujung tanjung apa khabar nya
Andai nya kau ingin menangis
Apa yang hendak di tangis kan
Begitu pun air mata mu... berdarah
Gugur daun menjadi baja
Gugur kita tak siapa tahu
Kita bukan golongan elite... di kota
Telah kering peluh di tubuh
Pakaian telah kian lusuh...

For My Generation

If you feel like crying
What use is there in shedding tears?
Even your tears... are bloody...
The sweat has dried on your body
Your clothes have become worn out
The leaves of life are falling... crashing to the ground
Fallen leaves transform into steel
We fall, but no one cares
We are not part of the city's elite...
The middlemen are sucking our lives away
They're nothing but landlocked leeches with iron claws
Tomorrow's dinner is today's worries
You're trapped by corruption
You're just a guest on your own land
What will become of my generation?
Who can I turn to?
My words mean nothing
They've created a caste system... of division
Where did these leeches come from?
You enslave us for our wealth
Tomorrow's dinner is today's worries
You're trapped by corruption
You're just a guest on your own land
What will become of my generation?
What will become of my generation? Woo!
I followed the call to come to the city
But their words were lies
The rich continue to hoard their wealth
What is the fate of the poor?
If you feel like crying
What use is there in shedding tears?
Even your tears... are bloody
Fallen leaves transform into steel
We fall, but no one notices
We are not part of the city's elite...
The sweat has dried on your body
Your clothes have become frayed...
