Paroles et traduction Yusni Hamid - Damak

Damak

Sayanglah damak tetap sumpitan
Menyumpit burung di dalam hutan
Ahai, damak, damak sayang

Sayanglah damak tetap sumpitan
Menyumpit burung di dalam hutan
Ahai, damak, damak sayang

Hati tak dapat melupakan tuan
Sedikit pun tidak, hai, tuan endahkan
Hati tak dapat melupakan tuan
Sedikit pun tidak, hai, tuan endahkan

Anaklah burung terbangnya malam
Terbangnya hinggap di pohon lalang
Ahai, damak, damak sayang

Hatiku sedih merindulah dendam
Orang kunanti tak kunjunglah datang

Bamboo

My dear, your mouth resembles a blowpipe
Used to shoot birds in the forest
Oh, my love, my precious bamboo

My dear, your mouth resembles a blowpipe
Used to shoot birds in the forest
Oh, my love, my precious bamboo

My heart cannot forget you
Not even for a moment, oh, my love, please care for me
My heart cannot forget you
Not even for a moment, oh, my love, please care for me

My love, you are a bird that flies at night
And lands on the tall grass
Oh, my love, my precious bamboo

My heart is sad and full of longing
The one I wait for never comes
