Ben Ladin - Hikayat Ben Ladin

Hikayat Ben Ladin - Tales of Ben Ladin

Malay - English

Benladin... Benladin

Mereka keluar masuk gua
Mencuba mencari dimana ada
Mencuba meneka dimana saya
Mata kasar takkan dapat jumpa
Niat enson matakaji semar ngiseng

They went in and out of the cave
Searching every crooks
Searching my whereabouts
Normal eyesight will never find me
Niat enson matakaji semar ngiseng*

*a spell from a famous Malaysian old movie

Aku lah Benladin
Hikayat Benladin

I am Benladin
Tales of Benladin

Suara dah bergema
Suara sakti hamba
Dalam gelombang bawa aura ke udara
Separa manusia separa luar biasa

My voice echoed
My phenomenal voice
The wave brought vibe (character) to the air
Half human half exceptional

Gurau senda dengan kata-kata sang pujangga
Kalau main api janganlah tambah gasolin
Mesti hati-hati janganlah seperti lilin
Jika mahu terang biar terang dengan betul
Jangan jadi arang jadi arang buat kotor

Made jokes with words of the poet
Play with the fire but don't add the gasoline
Careful, don't be a candle
If you want to make it obvious make it clear
Don't be a charcoal just bringing dirt

Kerna atas muka ada selendang suci
Maka hias ia biar terpampang seri
Akulah ilustrasi definisi gergasi
Terhasil dari ekperimentasi radiasi bunyi

Coz on the face is a holy mask
So beautify it, let the 'light' shine
I'm the illustration of of monstrosity
The product of a sound radiation experimentation

Buka mata minda luas seperti lautan
Usah fikir bukan-bukan, kata bukan-bukan

Open your eyes as wide as the sea
Don't think of nonsense, or say empty words

Nenek tua si bongkok tiga
Cubalah nenek cari cucu dimana ada**

Old grandma with 3 hunches
Try and find where am I (the grandchild)**

**based on a children game of a witch (Nenek tua-Old grandma) trying to find the next target (cucu-grandchildren) for her curse. It is a play of word to sarcastically ask the other party to find him as referred to the starting of the song

BTW, I'm editing in my phone so the style is very different. I'll update it once I have the opportunity to use my laptop! Sorry!
