Sikih

Sikih by Rubin Jala

(with English transliteration)

Mine ku liang raan me sembayang
Me masa buku Ago nakap dalan
Iih pameran nah peta adtang gituan
O Tuhan mada dalan

(As I went down in the valley to pray
Studying the Bible looking for the good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
O Lord, show me the way)

Ina adtur ale akan
me tauh nalan maben binen
Ina adtur ale akan
Me tauh liang raan me sembayang

(O sisters beloved one,
Let's go down, carry our binen,
O sisters beloved one,
Down to the valley to pray.)

Ama’ Laih pu ayam
me tauh nalan ngabin binan
Ama’ Laih pu ayam
Me tauh liang raan me sembayang

(O brothers dearest one,
Let's go down, wearing our parang,
O brothers dearest one,
Down to the valley to pray. )

Tama’ Sina’ lun uan
Muit tauh ngabi me nalan
Tama’ Sina’ lun uan
Me tauh liang raan me sembayang

(O fathers mothers loved one,
Bring us all to walk on,
O fathers mothers loved one,
Down to the valley to pray. )

O Kinanak nuk berat bekang
Ngapun sala’ lubid ngi turan
O Kinanak nuk berat bekang
Me tauh liang raan me sembayang

(O Brothers with a heavy load
Leave your burden and roll it down
O Brothers with a heavy load
Down to the valley to pray.)
