Текст и перевод песни Iwan Fals - Situa Sais Pedati

Situa Sais Pedati

Bergerak perlahan dengan pasti
Di jalan datar yang berlumpur
Sesekali terdengar geletar cemeti
Diiringi teriakan lantang
Si tua sais pedati

Gerak pedati sebentar berhenti
Tampak si tua sais pedati
Mulai membuka bungkusan nasi
Yang dibekali
Sang istri

Gerak pedati lalu jalan lagi
Singgah di setiap desa
Tanpa ragu-ragu, tanpa malu-malu
Napas segar terhembus dari sepasang lembu
Yang tak pernah merasakan sesak polusi

Dia tak pernah memerlukan
Dia tak pernah membutuhkan
Solar dan ganti oli
Bensin dan ganti busi
Apalagi charge aki

Dia tak pernah kebingungan
Dia tak pernah ketakutan
Akan kata orang tentang gawatnya
Krisis energi

Gerak pedati dan lenguh lembu
Seember rumput dan geletar cemeti
Seakan suara azan yang dikasetkan
Sementara itu sang bilal (gawat)
Pulas mendengkur

Situa Sais Pedati

Moving slowly and surely
On the flat, muddy road
Occasionally the sound of a whip crack can be heard
Accompanied by loud shouts
The old cart driver

The cart's movement stops for a moment
The old cart driver can be seen
Starting to open a package of rice
That was given to him by
His wife

The cart then continues on its way
Stopping at each village
Without hesitation, without shame
Fresh breath blows from a pair of oxen
Who never experience the tightness of pollution

He never needs
He never needs
Diesel and oil changes
Gasoline and spark plug changes
Let alone battery charging

He never gets confused
He never gets scared
Of what people say about the severity of the
Energy crisis

The movement of the cart and the groaning of the oxen
A bucket of grass and the crack of the whip
Like the sound of the call to prayer on cassette
Meanwhile, the muezzin (serious)
Sleeps soundly
