Текст и перевод песни Sharifah Aini - Burung Pungguk

Burung Pungguk

Oh, burung pungguk
Malang nasibmu
Rupamu buruk
Tak siapa yang mahu

Bila malam telah tiba
Di langit, bulan bercahaya
Kau berbunyi, berhiba-hiba
Merindukan bulan purnama

Sungguh suaramu
Menawan hati
Kedengaran di pohon kayu
Bagaikan bintang dikasihi

Tetapi wahai pungguk
Kau tak diacuhkan
Walaupun kau merajuk
Meratapi diri

Bulan hanya bagai mengatakan
"Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, kasihan"

Ha-ha-ha-ha
A-ha-ha-ah-ah
Ha-ha-ha-ha
A-ha-ha-ah-ah

Malangnya nasibmu
Wahai burung pungguk
Tidak seperti burung nuri
Di dalam sangkar

Dikasihi lelaki dan perempuan
Untuk menghibur hati yang rawan
Dikasihi lelaki dan perempuan
Untuk menghibur hati yang rawan

Oh, burung pungguk
Malang nasibmu
Rupamu buruk
Tak ada yang mahu

Hoopoe Bird

Oh, Hoopoe bird,
Your fate is unfortunate,
Your appearance is ugly,
No one wants you.

When night has fallen,
In the sky, the moon shines,
You cry, you mourn
Longing for the full moon.

Indeed your voice is
Captivating,
Heard in the trees,
Like a star loved by all.

But hey Hoopoe,
You're being ignored.
Though you sulk away,
Bemoaning yourself.

The moon just seems to say,
"Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, pity."

Ha-ha-ha-ha
A-ha-ha-ah-ah
Ha-ha-ha-ha
A-ha-ha-ah-ah

Your fate is unfortunate,
Oh, Hoopoe bird.
Unlike the parrot
In a cage

Loved by men and women
To cheer up sad hearts,
Loved by men and women
To cheer up sad hearts.

Oh, Hoopoe bird,
Your fate is unfortunate,
Your appearance is ugly,
No one wants you.
