Paroles et traduction SM Salim feat. Peter Chong - Pantun Budi

Pantun Budi

Kalau menebang
Kalau menebang, si pohon jati
Papan di Jawa, aduhai sayang
Papan di Jawa dibelah-belah

Kalaulah hidup
Kalaulah hidup, tidak berbudi
Umpama pokok, aduhai sayang
Umpama pokok tidak berbuah

Bunga selasih
Bunga selasih, si bunga padi
Kembanglah mekar, aduhai sayang
Kembanglah mekar di dalam taman

Pertama kasih
Pertama kasih, kedua budi
Yang mana satu, aduhai sayang
Yang mana satu nak diturutkan

Datuk laksamana
Datuk laksamana ke Bangkahulu
Belayar kapal, aduhai sayang
Belayar kapal membawa garam

Bagailah mana
Bagailah mana, kapal nak lalu
Kuala sudah, aduhai sayang
Kuala sudah dilengkong karang

Bungalah padi
Bungalah padi, bunga kiambang
Buat hiasan, aduhai sayang
Buat hiasan di taman bunga

Buahlah hati
Buahlah hati, kekasih orang
Hamba menumpang, aduhai sayang
Hamba menumpang gembira saja

Poem of Etiquette

Cutting down the tree
Cutting down the tree, the teak wood
Planks in Java, oh dear
Planks in Java, split them

If life
If life has no etiquette
Like a tree, oh dear
Like a tree bearing no fruit

Basil flower
Basil flower, the rice blossom
Bloom and blossom, oh dear
Bloom and blossom in the garden

First is love
First is love, second is manners
Which one, oh dear
Which one to follow

Admiral Datuk
Admiral Datuk to Bangkahulu
Sailing ship, oh my love
Sailing the ship, carrying salt

How do you know?
How do you know the ship will pass?
The estuary, oh dear
The estuary, blocked by coral

Rice flower
Rice flower, floating flower
Used as decoration, oh dear
Used as decoration in the flower garden

Heart fruit
Heart fruit, lover of others
I am only a guest, oh dear
I am only a guest, just to enjoy myself
