Lyrics

Aku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Aku pasti bukan aku seorang saja yang nampak
Ada juga bercadang bertanya tuan punya
Tapi bercampur risau dengan tak tergamak
Nanti dikata tak bersyukur, dikata tak sedar diri
Jadi aku menyendiri, memerhati dan akhirnya mengakui
Yang kita sendiri
Membiarkan bunga raya melayu ke kanan
Dan dibiar bunga tak cantik mekar di kiri
Aku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Tanah air kita yang punya
Kita siram, kita baja tapi angin api kita lupa
Mereka merancang masa menjilat bangsa
13 harimau bertukar menjadi mangsa
Kita lupa nenek moyang kaya-raya
Jangan sekali-kali digadai harta-bendanya
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Takkan Melayu hilang di dunia
Ya… tapi apa guna tak hilang di dunia
Kalau kewujudan tidak dirasa
Petah berbahasa kudrat tak berjasa
Orang berbudi kita hanya tahu merasa
Selalu lari bila dirapat
Selalu malu bila soalan diaju
Selalu segan memberi pendapat
Rela mengikut dari meneraju
Belum nyanyi sudah bersorak
Suka berjanji dalam borak
Bukan kata tak ada otak
Cuma tak berfikir di luar kotak
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Ku lihat layu dalam Melayu
Aku jadi sayu
Bunga menangis dia mendayu
Mahu jadi cantik tetapi ragu
Aku merayu
Bangunlah semula hidup kembali
Jangan tunggu matahari mati
Cepatlah mekar sebelum terlerai
Perjuangan kita belum selesai
Perjuangan kita belum selesai
Perjuangan kita belum selesai

Lyrics translation

I see wither in Malay
I'm sure I'm not the only one who seems
There are also intend to ask mr. have
But mixed with worry with no janice, how can
Later say don't be grateful, say don't realize it themselves
So I aloof, memerhati and finally admitted
We own
Let the bunga raya in malay to the right
And left behind the flower not beautiful bloom on the left
I see wither in Malay
The ground water we have
We flush, we are steel but the wind the fire we forget
They designed the lick nation
13 tiger metamorphosed into the prey
We forget the ancestors of the rich
Never pawned belongings
I see wither in Malay
I see wither in Malay
I see wither in Malay
Wouldn't the Malay lost in the world
Yes... but what in order to don't lost in the world
If existence is not considered
Petah-speaking ourselves, not meritorious
An ethical person we only know the feel
Always run away when dirapat
Always a shame when a question diaju
Always hesitate to give an opinion
Willingly follow of meneraju
Yet singing is cheering
Like the promise in borak
Not a word no brain
Just don't think outside the box
I see wither in Malay
I see wither in Malay
I see wither in Malay
I'm so wistful
Flowers cry he music
Want so pretty but with confidence
I seduce
Get up original back to life
Don't wait for the sun to die
Hurry up and bloom before the break the spell
Our struggle is not yet finished
Our struggle is not yet finished
Our struggle is not yet finished
