Orang Jakarta Lyrics Translation – Arumtala

Arini Kumara tells the story of a Jakartan navigating the city’s chaos with ease. A standout line translates to, ‘No matter what people might say, about Jakarta being cruel, my home is right there.’ The poet mentions grabbing coffee in Senopati and hopping on the MRT, showing pride in the city’s rhythm.

Jadi Orang JakartaBeing a Jakartan,
Mau kemana-manano matter where you’re headed,
Berdesakan di jalan,getting crowded on the streets,
Biasa!it’s just normal!
Ngopi di SenopatiGrabbing coffee in ‘Senopati’,
Lanjut naik MRTthen hopping on the MRT,
Sampai Bundarah HIreaching the ‘Bundaran HI’ circle,
ke mall!heading to the mall!
Terserah orang mau bilang,No matter what people might say,
Kejamnya Jakaryaabout Jakarta being cruel,
Satu yang kutau pasti,there’s one thing I know for sure:
rumahku disanamy home is right there.
Lika-liku JakartaThe twists and turns of Jakarta,
Selalu banyak ceritaare always full of stories.
Apakah engkau jugaDo you feel the same way,
Sama?too?
