Makan – Jalil Hamid
Mari kita cerita pasal makan
Negara kita mewah kerana banyak makan
Negara lain kebulur mati tak makan
Org kita mati kerna banyak makan
Org kita makan macam-macam
tidak kira pagi,petang siang malam
semua benda alamak! boleh di telan
Batu besi parang kayu papan
Makan sayur pucuk paku
masak rebus ibu kayu
goreng ikan selah papan
masak gulai ikan parang
buah keras buat lauk
pisang emas, pisang tanduk
batang buruk cuco kodok
Makanan pelik-pelik
tahi minyak, tahi itik,
supir mandi badak berendam
mata kucing mangga siam
cuci mulut lepas makan
kita kunyah jambu batu.
Makan pokok meniaga jadi lingkup
makan bunga itu haram dan terkutuk
makan hati boleh membawa mati
makan suap tidak boleh dibiarkan
There you go the English translations, Enjoy!
Let us discuss about eating,
Our country is rich of foods,
Others have died of eating nothing,
While our people died of eating too much!!
We eat everything,
Be it morning, afternoon day or night,
Oops! we eat almost everything!
Stones, metal,knives, boards, woods!
Eat ferns bud,
Fry fish selah papan (what's selah papan? Help!)
Make a Wolf Herring curry,
Candle Nut for side dish,
Pisang emas, pisang tanduk (types of banana we have in Malaysia),
Batang buruk, cuco kodok (Malaysian traditional snacks, yummy!)
There are strange foods,
Tahi minyak, tahi itik (another Malaysian traditional snacks)
Supir mandi, badak berendam (again, Malaysian traditional snacks - I think it is Putri rather than Supir)
Cat's eye fruit, Siamese mango,
These are all desserts,
Finally we eat guava!
If you 'eat' your capital, your business goes down,
Extreme interests is not good and cursed,
Depress could lead you to fatal,
Bribery should never be allowed.
