Lyrics
Dalam perdjalanan hidup, kamilah berpisa, tjari hiduplah djauh darimuh
Sekarang beta djauh disini, engkau djauh disana, dan angin dunia beribut
Tetapi djangan tumpah air matamuh
Beta minta hidupmuh sentosa
Djangan rindu rindu hatimu
Karna perdjalanankuh berdosa
Beta tidalah mejangkal didik peraturan moyang moyangku sungguh hati
Tetapi satu kali bimbang, satu kali djatu biarpun djiwakuh tidah mau mengakhu
Tetapi djangan tumpah air matamuh
Beta minta hidupmuh sentosa
Djangan rindu rindu hatimu
Karna perdjalanankuh berdosa
Perdjalanan Dosa
Translation
Within the road of life we are separated, burdened through having to earn a living far from one another
Now I am here, far away from you
And you are there, far away from me
And the winds of life keep on raging
Shed no tears
I only ask and hope you live out of harm’s way
Please don’t long for me
For my path has become one of sin
I do not deny the teachings and ways of my ancestors
This I can say with all my heart
But once you waver and once you fall it is over
Even if your soul does not want to admit it
Shed no tears
I only ask and hope you live out of harm’s way
Please don’t long for me
For my path has become one of sin
