Translation of the song lyrics Balik Telapak Tangan - Slank

Balik Telapak Tangan (original)

Mulutmu harimaumu pikir dulu sebelum kamu
Besar pasak dari pada tiang hitung dulu sebelum kamu
Bicara sesuatu cukup yang kau perlu
Berbuat sesuatu hanya yang kau mampu
Tak semudah balik telapak tangan
Tak semua bisa kamu dapatkan teman
Tong kosong nyaring bunyinya
Masak dulu sebelum kamu
Berakit ke hulu berenang ke tepian
Sakit dulu sebelum kamu
Ucapkan sesuatu cukup yang kau tahu
Dapatkan sesuatu kerja keras dulu
Tak semudah balik telapak tangan
Tak semua bisa kamu dapatkan teman

Balik Telapak Tangan (translation)

Your mouth is a tiger, think before you
The peg is bigger than the post, count before you
Speak something just what you need
Do something only what you can
It's not as easy as turning the palm of the hand
You can't get all friends
Empty drum gives loud sound
Cook before you
Riding to the upstream swimming to the shore
It hurts before you
Say something enough that you know
Get something work hard first
It's not as easy as turning the palm of the hand
You can't get all friends
