negriku negeri antah berantah
politiknya antah berantah
kebijakannya antah berantah
ekonominya antah berantah

Indonesia: Let It Go, Let It Flow
in the midst of deaf race
with soft wave of breeze

take both or be empty
no way to walk but in the deep mud
let it go, let it flow
be tough in the realm of sorrow
in the midst of blasphemy and swear
no words are right but lies
for no one in the world will care
to the empty promises they put their ties
let it go, let it flow
though your life is betted on the gallows
