Текст и перевод песни Rhoma Irama - Rupiah

Rupiah

Tiada orang yang tak suka
Pada yang bernama rupiah
Semua orang mencarinya
Di mana rupiah berada

Walaupun harus nyawa sebagai taruhannya
Banyak orang yang rela cuma karena rupiah

Memang sungguh luar biasa
itu pengaruhnya rupiah

Sering karena rupiah
Jadi pertumpahan darah
Sering karena rupiah
Saudara jadi pecah

Memang karena rupiah
Orang menjadi megah
Kalau tidak ada rupiah
Orang menjadi susah

Hidup memang perlu rupiah
Tetapi bukan segalanya
Silakan mencari rupiah
Asal jangan halalkan cara

Buat apa berlimpah kalau jadi bencana
Sedikit pun jadilah asal membawa berkah

Dari itu jangan serakah
Di dalam mencari rupiah

Rupiah

There's no one who doesn't love,
That sweet sound of Rupiah,
Everyone's searching for it, darling,
Wherever Rupiah may be.

Even if their life is on the line, my dear,
So many are willing, just for Rupiah.

It's truly extraordinary,
The influence of Rupiah.

Often because of Rupiah, sweetheart,
Bloodshed flows like a river,
Often because of Rupiah, love,
Brothers turn against each other.

Indeed, because of Rupiah,
People become grand and tall,
But if there's no Rupiah, my sweet,
Hardship befalls us all.

Life indeed needs Rupiah, darling,
But it's not everything, you see,
Go ahead and seek your Rupiah, dear,
But don't justify any means.

What's the use of abundance if it brings disaster?
Even a little is enough, my love, if it brings blessings.

So don't be greedy, sweetheart,
In your pursuit of Rupiah.
