Negaraku....Negarakuku

Recently i received a link to youtube from a friend of mine. The video clip is called "Negarakuku" which literally means "Dick country" in my own interpretation.
Well,i called it "Dick country" coz back in childhood ---
Kuku = dick
I think the songwriter of the song thought like that tooo,haha

The song was actually modified from the original Malaysia National Anthem "Negaraku" into a rap style R&B version "NegarakuKU". It's shocking but at the same time impressive that the songwriter/singer made that song out criticizing the government and the native Malays. But he told the press that he was trying to promote Malaysia by telling people about the dark side of the country. IT WAS A BRAVE MOVE, U'VE GOT GUTS MAN!!!

According to him, Hong Kong produced films about the Gangsterism there, and attracted alot of tourists to visit Hong Kong just to see the real thing(but in his mtv there's neither famous actor nor actress, how to attract people to come and visit ler ,hihi)

I'm not a big racist but i wouldn't agree more coz i found it so true but somehow he exaggerated it. The whole song deserves a 80/100. HAHA and i especially like this part :-

这个国家 我很喜欢 早上五点 还有Morning Call会叫我起床 有时几间一起唱
听起来好像情歌对唱 声音熬来熬去像唱R&B一样 虽然他们有时唱到走声
虽然他们有时还会唱到破声
有些声音像公鸡 可是比公鸡早起床 这样我们才会知道准备上课上班

Translation :-
"I like this country very much
Morning call at 5 am to wake me up
We sing together if there's time
Sounds like love song duet
The voice 'ao' here 'ao' there like singing R&B
Though sometimes they sing out of tune
Though sometimes they sing till voice breaks
Some sing like cock
But wake up earlier than cock
Like this,we know when is to be prepared to go to school or to work"

This is so funny. Also, i know how he feels coz i used to live near a mosque.
Morning call at 5, it's so freaking true......

The song ended up with "Please don't sue me, I don't have money" *big laugh*

The video is in my Kochi-Vid panel but if it failed to open, try this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsyJemOf0xg

SORRY FOLKS IT'S IN CHINESE


Here's the lyric in chinese :

我爱我的国家 Negarakuku (2007大馬觀光年主題曲)
Negaraku NegarakukuNegaraku
NegarakukuNegaraku Negarakuku
我爱我的国家 有国才有家有家才有我 站在这边跟你大声唱歌
你麦kia虽然我每次骂粗话我的歌 就像榴莲一样 硬硬尖尖 只是看你敢不敢打开 看看里面的真相他可以很臭 也可以很香只是看你有怎样的鼻炕
我们的警察叫做MATA 因为他们的眼睛很亮新年一到 他们就很努力拿住笔
可是很少会跟你开单因为他们口很渴 需要喝茶还有Kopi O
要不要加糖如果加糖 他们的嘴巴会甜甜跟你微笑你需要离开的时候他会跟你TATA
Negaraku tanah tumpahnya darahku
Rakyat Hidup bersatu dan maju
这种现象 不需要改善也不用加强 警民合作一杯咖啡感情不会散
我西北SUKA至少不会回家收到三万我爸爸一定赌懒 我一定欠干
没有车给我驾怎么办 这次西北够力
没有车 我要怎样出去玩
没有车 我要怎样打野战
没有车 我要怎样看阿瓜
这个国家 我很喜欢早上五点 还有Morning Call会叫我起床有时几间一起唱
听起来好像情歌对唱 声音熬来熬去像唱R&B一样 虽然他们有时唱到走声
虽然他们有时还会唱到破声
有些声音像公鸡 可是比公鸡早起床 这样我们才会知道准备上课上班
不要怪 政府只是照顾土族 不要怪 我们没有受到公平照顾
这样才能证明我们华人不怕吃苦 这样才能训练我们逆境寻找出路
不要觉得他们的标准 很奇怪因为这样反而表现我们 很厉害没有被宠坏的小孩 才不会依赖
不然你看有人到现在 还没有断奶
Rahmat Bahagia Tuhan Kurniakan
Raja Kita Selamat Bertakhta
Rahmat Bahagia Tuhan Kurniakan
Raja Kita Selamat Bertakhta
躲在政府部门里面的人更厉害他们做什么事情都可以慢慢来
就算排队的人等到要骂 臭Lelai他们的心情还是一样自由自在
有时Kuih都拿出来他吃他的娘惹 Kuih 你的队继续排就算你真的骂臭Lelai 也不要紧
因为旁边的Guard他在做梦 他不会鸟你的啦
他们把头包起来 慢慢走慢慢过马路 你家车经过还要小小让路最重要活得开心
最重要活得舒服不要学华人一样整天忙忙碌碌 西北辛苦这个精神我们真的不能不佩服
因为这个就是他们生活的态度(态度 态度)
这首歌我都在讲好话相信你们赌懒我的人 现在你们一定很喜欢
世界很和平 很有希望没有人受伤 也没有很乱你很高贵 你很高雅大便很香
不会骂粗活你们最HighClass 整天耍浪漫听光良品冠 可是人家都已经跑去了台湾
独中生毕业 要进Local大学西北难其实这件事情我们更不需要赌懒
这个其实是政府的一个伟大计划 他要我们到处跑 出国自己找希望然后学习东西回来报答国家
这个计划真的是 好到没有话讲世界各地都会看到Malaysia的Gina 好像逃难一样 西北爽
2007 马来西亚搞观光华人文化统统拿出来宣传 独中生政府根本不想管文凭丢Longkang
像我一样中化毕业去了台湾学了东西 准备回去报答国家我站在台北路边拿住Guitar
可是我的嘴巴 还是一样唱
Rahmat Bahagia Tuhan Kurniakan
Raja Kita Selamat Bertakhta


Here's the translation :-

2007 Visit Malaysia Year Theme SongI Love My CountryNegaraku
(Repeat) Check it out, yo, yo, yo.
(Repeat) Negaraku, Negarakuku.
I love my country, only when you have a country you have a home
Only with a home then there will be me, standing here with you Loudly singing, don’t be afraid
Even though I curse all the time My song, is just like the durian Tough and spiky, only To see if you dare to open it, to look at the truth inside
It can be very stinky, it can be very fragrant It only depends on what kind of nostrils you have.
Our police is called Mata Because they have very shiny eyes Once it’s New Year, they will be very hard working Holding pens but they will rarely write you a receipt
Because they are thirsty, they need to drink tea Also kopi-O, want to add sugar?
If they add sugar, their mouths will sweetly smile at you
When you are leaving They will even go “Tata.”
NegarakuTanah tumpahnya darahku
Rakyat hidup bersatu dan maju.
This phenomenon, doesn’t need any improvements
Neither does it need strengthening, the police and the people work together
A cup of coffee keeps our relationship temperate I so very suka(like)
At least I won’t go home and receive a saman (fine or ticket)
My dad would sure be pissed I would also kiang kan (swear word in Hokkien for “deadmeat”), With no car to drive What to do, this time so very kao lat (an expression, something like bad)With no car, how do I go out and play?
With no car, how do I wage “wild war”? (I don’t know what it means but I assume it has something to do with a girl)
With no car, how do I go and watch ah kua? (transvestites/shemales)
This country, I like it very much.
5 in the morning There’s even a morning call to wake me up
Sometimes a few of them will sing together When you listen to it, it’s like a love duet
The voice ululates like an R&B song
Even though sometimes they sing until it’s out of tune
Even though sometimes they even sing until their voices break
Some sound like cockerels, but they wake up earlier than them
This way we can know the time to get ready for class and for work
Don’t blame, the government only takes cares of the natives
Don’t blame, we don’t receive equal care
Only this way we can prove that we Chinese are not afraid of hard work
Only this way we can train ourselves to find a solution during hard times
Don’t feel weird about their standards Because this only shows that we are smart (or capable)Children who are not spoilt will not be dependant
Because you see some children are still not weaned off breast-feeding.
Rahmat bahagiaTuhan kurniakan
Raja kitaSelamat bertakhta.
People who hide in government departments are even better (even more capable)
They can do everything so slowly Even when people are queuing, are cursing chao lelai ("lelai" is the imitation of local vulgar word "cibai",i think he censored by using lelai...haha! "chao" means stinky)
They’re chill and unfazed Sometimes they even bring out their kuih(cakes)
They eat their nyonya kuih More people will continue queuing up
Even when you curse chao lelai it doesn’t matter Because the guard at the side is dreaming
And he won’t tolerate with you one lah.
They wrap up their heads; walk slowly and cross the road slowly
When you pass in the car you even have to let them pass first The most important thing is to live happily; the most important thing is to live comfortably
Don’t be like the Chinese Busy the whole day, very tough We really cannot NOT admire this spirit Because this is their attitude in life.
(Attitude, attitude)
I’ve been saying good things in this song I believe those of you who are pissed at me will like me now The world is peaceful, and full of hope No one is hurt, there aren’t any riots
You’re so classy, you’re so elegant Your shit smells so nice, and you don’t curse
You guys are the most high class, every day it’s just romancing
Listening to Guang Liang Pin Guan (this local Chinese artiste) But they already ran to Taiwan Private school students graduate It’s so very tough to get admitted into local universities Actually we don’t have to get pissed about this issue Actually this is the a very noble plan by the government They want us to explore the world, to find new opportunities for ourselves
To learn things and come back and repay the country This is plan is so great, I can’t quibble about it All over the world you can see Malaysia’s children They’re like refugees, so very happy
2007, Malaysia’s having Visit Malaysia Year The Chinese culture is brought out and paraded The government doesn’t even care about private school students The certificate is thrown into the longkang (drains), just like me
Graduated and went to Taiwan Learned about things, and got ready to come back to repay my country I stood on the streets of Taipei with my guitar But my mouth still sings.
Rahmat BahagiaTuhan kurniakan
Raja kita Selamat bertakhta.
