036“Learn Some Iban With Cibol”
posted by cibol on February 15th, 2008
This post is dedicated to kopi soh and angeles.
In response to Kopi Soh’s request for singing a song for them, I actually really wanted to sing some songs for you people la but then hor .. maybe because of too much of pantun on cocka-doodle I lost my voice liw.
Since everyone has been putting up songs all very romantic one, most of them in English so today I decided to go with something different. How about an Iban song? I’m sure many of us don’t really know how does this language sounds like. So hor .. I’m taking kopi soh and angeles onto stage and let’s all joget together with this song. Ha ha ha ..
By the way just as an intro : This song is sang by Ricky El, the guy is quite femes here. Don’t play play hor … Now I will try my very best to traslate the song to all of you. Ha ha ha .. Enjoy!
Bujang Runggu Ensing
Kasih meh tudah diri
(oh so pity of me)
Bangat nadai pemandai
(not so clever in studies)
Enda landik di tunjuk jari
(teach oso no use)
Tusah amai ka ngiga bini
(so hard to find a wife)
Indu dara amat lawa
(all the leng lui so sombong)
Enggai ka laki nadai kereja
(don’t wan people who don’t have job)
Enti aku tu nyadi Cigu
(If I am a teacher)
Nya baru sida setuju
(then only they will agree)
Nadai ngawa ku lama bujang
(It’s ok if I become a bachelor for so long time)
Asal ati aku terperindang
(as long as I’m happy)
Enda iboh dikumbai Bujang Skrang
(no need to lebel me as Bujang skrang)
Ila meh aku kereja
(in the future I will work)
Ngagai tasik saudi arabia
(Go oversea to Saudi Arabia)
Gaji besai, duit di bai ku pulai
(Big pay, money I bring home)
Baru sida ya nemu
(then only they know)
Nyesal diri enggai ka aku
(feel so rugi last time dunwan me)
Taja pan nadai pemandai
(Eventhough I don’t do well in study)
Ulih ga nyadi tauke besai
(I can also become big tauke)
Di peda ta runggu ensing
(See me like a sick bird)
Ti terebai apus ga sungai
(If I fly, can last the long strecth of the river)
Indu dara nyau nyeling nyeling
(All leng lui’s eyes now on me)
Agi laku ga bujang tuai
(This old bachelor still laku one after all)
P/S : Suituapui, I know you terrer kala-oke wan. come up and sing. Got lyrics liw!!

February 16th, 2008 at 6:01 pmi dun really like iban songs.. alway with almost same tune, and there’s no production value to it.. ha ha, like everyone’s singing karaoke…
In a way yes, it is but to look at it at their point of view, their songs are for their people in a sense - that’s the market. Well to say it as of no production value at all is I’d say rather harsh. I’m not a big fan either. But put it this way, there’s a wide range of music that people listen to and this is the music that they listen to. They as in The Ibans. So, this is one kind of music, which is the culture. The main point here is, having fun and that’s it.
