Dayung Sampan


Dayung sampan, dayung dayung sampan

Barlabuh tantang bendar China

sampai Singapura


Dayung sampan, dayung, dayung sampan,

Dayung mendayung sampan sampai ke Singapura

Dayung, dayung, ... hoi.

Row the Sampan


Row the sampan, row row the sampan

Anchored in the port in a Chinese town,

You have come to Singapore.


Row the sampan, row row the sampan,

An oar to row your sampan to Singapore.

Row, row, ... hoi.
