Paroles et traduction Titiek Puspa - Si Hitam

Si Hitam

Dulu pernah aku punya seorang kawan
Namanya lucu tapi cukup mengesankan
Pula badannya kecil dan kulitanya hitam
Baik budi seperti seorang seniman kuingat namanya, oh si hitam

Tapi dia kini tak pernah lagi muncul kembali
Kabarnya dia telah lama pergi
Dan kini menjadi kiai

Oh, si Hitam, si Hitam, kawanku sayang
Walau kini kau tak pernah menjelang datang
Tapi namamu selalu di dalam ingatan
Karena budimu baik seperti seniman salamku padamu ooh si Hitam

Tapi dia kini tak pernah lagi muncul kembali
Kabarnya dia telah lama pergi
Dan kini menjadi kyai

Oh, si Hitam, si Hitam, kawanku sayang
Walau kini kau tak pernah menjelang datang
Tapi namamu selalu di dalam ingatan
Karena budimu baik seperti seniman salamku padamu ooh si Hitam

The Black One

I used to have a friend
His name was funny but quite impressive
He was small and had dark skin
He was kind-hearted like an artist I remember his name, oh the black one

But he never showed up again
I heard he had been gone for a long time
And now he became a kiai

Oh, the black one, the black one, my dear friend
Even though you never come anymore
But your name is always in my memory
Because you are kind like an artist My greetings to you oh the black one

But he never showed up again
I heard he had been gone for a long time
And now he became a kiai

Oh, the black one, the black one, my dear friend
Even though you never come anymore
But your name is always in my memory
Because you are kind like an artist My greetings to you oh the black one
