Gedebang, gedebungThump, thump.
Pecah perut, lenggang-lenggokSides splitting with laughter, swaying to the beat.
Dah bergema suara takbirThe ‘takbir’ prayer call is echoing now.
Tiba sudah hari rayaHari Raya has finally arrived.
Adik, abang (Adik, abang)Younger brother, older brother (Little brother, big brother).
Lekas siap (Cepat siap)Get ready quickly (Hurry up and get ready).
Tolong bonda masak serba lengkapHelp Mother cook the full feast.
Ho-ohHo-oh.
Bagai serai kita serumpunWe’re a cluster of lemongrass, united as one.
Bagai sirih tersusunLike ‘sirih’ betel leaves, neatly arranged.
Ada ketupat, ada rendangThere’s ‘ketupat’ rice cakes and ‘rendang’ meat.
Nasi himpit dan kuah kacangCompressed rice and peanut sauce.
Kuih-muih sudah terhidangThe assorted cookies are already served.
Kita jemput sekampung datangWe’ll invite the whole village to visit.
Duit raya di dalam sampul‘Duit raya’ gift money is in the envelopes.
Adik-beradik sama berkumpulAll the siblings are gathering together.
Ada bunga api, ada mercunThere are fireworks and firecrackers.
Biar meletup, pom, pom, pom, pomLet them explode, pom, pom, pom, pom.
