Paroles et traduction The Venopian Solitude - Lumrah Raya

Lumrah Raya

Purnama ke-sembilan datang menerpa syaitan yang digari
Sampai Aidilfitri
Malam seribu bulan diidami pahlawan yang berlari
Kejar sunat witir

Tapi kita hanya sebutir serangga
Gagah mana sepuluh malam pertama
Kalah pada
Drama TV kita!

Selangkah ke Ramadan, tekad kurung godaan
Kurang hari, layan lagha hati
Tertandus nafsu mekar, yang dididik dajal liar
Rebah, hingga hancur sampah

Tapi kita hanya hamba sahaya
Dagang mana sepuluh malam tengahnya
Kalah pada
Bazaar riang ria!

Murtabak raja!
Ayam percik sedas!
Dibalut john pedas!

Lantang benar dendangan
Lagu raya di pasaran
Padahal seminggu lagi
Hantu keliar berjoli
Tapi terimalah Syawal pertama kurnia
Tuan kita

(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta, ta-ta)

Baju raya berlip-lap
Songket pelangi siap
Segak gaya
Pagi Hari Raya

Saku siaga kosong
Habis raya penuh tabung
Perut
Leper sudah gendut

Lemang, rendang, licin habis pinggan
Bunga api menemani saudara-saudari
Dan meriam besi!

Baju raya berlip-lap
Songket pelangi siap
Segak gaya
Pagi Hari Raya

Saku siaga kosong
Habis raya penuh tabung
Perut
Leper sudah gendut

Baju raya berlip-lap
Songket pelangi siap
Segak gaya
Pagi hari raya

Saku siaga kosong
Habis raya penuh tabung
Perut
Leper sudah gendut

Setahun punya dosa
Ampun maaf dipinta
Daripada
Luhur jiwa raga

Pak Mat terpecah kaca
Kaca dibalas jua
Bergema
Selamat Hari Raya

Raya's Ordinariness

The ninth full moon comes to smite at the chained demons
Until Eid al-Fitr
The night of a thousand moons is yearned for by the running heroes
Chasing after the sunnah prayers

But we are just specks of insects
What use are the first ten nights
When we can't avoid
The dramas on our TV!

A step into Ramadan, resolve to restrain temptation
With just a few days left, indulge in the lust of the heart
Overcome by vile lust, tamed by the wild beast
Collapsing, until it's nothing more than shattered rubbish

But we are just mere servants
What use are the middle ten nights
When we can't resist
The lively bazaars!

Murtabak king!
Spicy chicken dishes!
Wrapped in spicy rendang!

Truly bombastic songs
Raya songs in the markets
Even though it's just a week away
The ghosts roam free and merry
But let us first welcome Syawal, a gift from
Our master

(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta)
(Ta-ta, ra-ta-ta, ta-ta)

Fancy Raya clothes
Songket in rainbow colors at the ready
Handsome style
On Hari Raya morning

Pockets ready, but empty
After Raya, they'll be overflowing
Tummy
Flat now, soon to be plump

Lemang, rendang, licked clean off the plates
Fireworks light up the night with family and friends
And iron cannons!

Fancy Raya clothes
Songket in rainbow colors at the ready
Handsome style
On Hari Raya morning

Pockets ready, but empty
After Raya, they'll be overflowing
Tummy
Flat now, soon to be plump

Fancy Raya clothes
Songket in rainbow colors at the ready
Handsome style
On Hari Raya morning

Pockets ready, but empty
After Raya, they'll be overflowing
Tummy
Flat now, soon to be plump

A year's worth of sins
Ask for forgiveness and pardon
Rather than that
Elevate one's soul and body

Uncle Mat's window is broken
The window must be replaced
Echoing
Happy Hari Raya
