Текст и перевод песни Doel Sumbang - Si Badut

Si Badut

Di satu kelurahan Senin pagi bulan Mei
Pos pertahanan sipil dikerumuni orang
Si badut anak tukang becak ditangkap petugas hansip
Lantaran maling oblong punya Babah Akyong

Si badut dipukuli sampai babak-belur
Tiada ampun buatnya
Si badut digunduli dan ditelanjangi
A-du-du-duh kelewatan

Si badut maling oblong dihajar setengah modar
Sedangkan Bapak Lurah yang korupsi banyak
Aneh, kok kagak diapa-apain

Rupanya
Hukum di kelurahan itu
Cuma makan teri belaka
Sedangkan kakapnya
Asoy, bebas berenang
Gawat, gawat, gawat

The Clown

On a Monday morning in May in a certain district
The civil defense post was swarmed with people
The clown, son of a pedicab driver, was arrested by the neighborhood watch
For stealing a loaf of bread from Mr. Akyong's shop

The clown was beaten black and blue
No mercy for him
The clown was shaved bald and stripped naked
Oh my, that's too much

The clown who stole the bread was beaten half to death
While the neighborhood chief who committed countless acts of corruption
Strangely, nothing was done about it

Apparently
The law in that district
Only eats small fish
While the big fish
Oh dear, swim free
Terrible, terrible, terrible
