Translation of the song lyrics Orang Merdeka - Slank

Orang Merdeka (original)

Bicara bebas bicara bebas
Banyak orang gak suka
Hidup merdeka hidup merdeka
Banyak orang gak suka
Mereka pada jadi Polisi
Mereka pada jadi Priyai
Punya pendapat punya pendapat
Banyak orang gak suka
Cetuskan ide cetuskan ide
Banyak orang gak suka
Mereka pada kritik dan sirik
Mereka pada sok kritis dan sinis
Mau bikin ini mau bikin itu
Banyak sensor-sensoran
Mau buat ini mau buat itu
Banyak pemberangusan
Mereka pada sok berbudaya
Mereka pada sok beragama
Walau kalian walau kalian
Ngoceh ‘semau gue'
Ku akan tetap ku akan tetap
Jadi orang yang merdeka
Syalalalala, syalalalala
Aku orang merdeka
Syalalalala, syalalalala
Aku orang merdeka

Orang Merdeka (translation)

Talk freely talk freely
Many people don't like it
live free live free
Many people don't like it
They become police
They become Priyai
Have an opinion have an opinion
Many people don't like it
Generate ideas spark ideas
Many people don't like it
They are critical and envious
They are critical and cynical
Want to make this want to do that
Lots of sensors
Want to do this want to do that
Lots of suppression
They are cultured
They are religious
Even though you are you
Chattering 'as I want'
I will stay I will stay
Be a free person
Shalalalala, shalalalala
I'm a free person
Shalalalala, shalalalala
I'm a free person
