Oh kanak-kanak

Oh kanak-kanak

Lyrics

(Folk song from Brunei)

O kanak-kanak,
Apa kau bawa,
Telur dua biji,
Mintaku sebiji,
Marah karang nini,
Kemana ninimu,
Mengambil daun,
kanapa daun,
membuat balai,
kanapa balai,
tempat baaum-aum,
ambuyat semangkuk agung

English Translation - Oh children

Oh children,
What have you brought?
Two eggs?
I ask for one.
I’m angry with my grandmother.
Where is your grandmother?
To pick leaves,
to make leaves,
to make a pavilion,
to make a pavilion,
to make a place to smell,
to make a bowl of incense.
