Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Serdadu

Serdadu

Isi kepala di balik topi baja
Semua serdadu pasti tak jauh berbeda
Tak peduli perwira, bintara, atau tamtama
Tetap tentara

Kata berita gagah pekasa
Apalagi sedang kokang senjata
Persetan siapa saja musuhnya
Perintah datang karang pun dihantam

Serdadu seperti peluru
Tekan picu melesat tak ragu
Serdadu seperti belati
Tak dirawat tumpul dan berkarat

Umpan bergizi, oh titah bapak menteri
Apakah sudah terbukti?
Bila saja masih ada
Buruknya kabar burung
Tentang jatah prajurit yang dikentit

Serdadu seperti peluru
Tekan picu melesat tak ragu
Serdadu seperti belati
Tak dirawat tumpul dan berkarat

Lantang suaramu otot kawat tulang besi
Susu, telur, kacang ijo, ekstra gizi
Runtuh dan tegaknya keadilan negeri ini
Serdadu harus tahu pasti

Serdadu baktimu kami tunggu
Tolong kantongkan tampang serammu
Serdadu rabalah dada kami
Gunakan hati jangan pakai belati

Serdadu jangan mau disuap
Tanah ini jelas meratap
Serdadu jangan lemah syahwat
Nyonya pertiwi tak sudi melihat

Isi kepala di balik topi baja
Semua serdadu pasti tak jauh berbeda
Tak peduli perwira, bintara, atau tamtama
Tetap tentara

Lantang suaramu otot kawat tulang besi
Susu, telur, kacang ijo, ekstra gizi
Runtuh dan tegaknya keadilan negeri ini
Serdadu harus tahu pasti

Soldier

Inside the head under the steel helmet
All soldiers are surely not much different
No matter if they are an officer, non-commissioned officer, or private
Still a soldier

According to the news, they are brave and mighty
Especially when they are cocking their weapons
To hell with whoever the enemy is
When the order comes, even reefs will be hit

Soldiers are like bullets
Pull the trigger, they will shoot out without hesitation
Soldiers are like daggers
If not taken care of, they will become dull and rusty

Nutritious bait, oh the decree of the minister
Has it been proven?
If there is still
The bad news
About the soldiers' rations being embezzled

Soldiers are like bullets
Pull the trigger, they will shoot out without hesitation
Soldiers are like daggers
If not taken care of, they will become dull and rusty

Your voice is loud, you have iron muscles and bones
Milk, eggs, mung beans, extra nutrition
The fall and rise of the justice of this country
The soldier must know for sure

Soldiers, we are waiting for your service
Please put away your fierce look
Soldiers, touch our hearts
Use your heart, not a dagger

Soldiers, don't be bribed
This land is clearly mourning
Soldiers, don't be weak-willed
Mother Earth doesn't want to see it

Inside the head under the steel helmet
All soldiers are surely not much different
No matter if they are an officer, non-commissioned officer, or private
Still a soldier

Your voice is loud, you have iron muscles and bones
Milk, eggs, mung beans, extra nutrition
The fall and rise of the justice of this country
The soldier must know for sure
