Bengawan Solo (INDONESAN)
by Gesang Martohartono

Bengawan Solo, riwayatmu ini
Sedari dulu jadi perhatian insani

Musim kemarau, tak seb'rapa airmu
Di musim hujan air.. meluap sampai jauh..

Reff:
Mata airmu dari Solo
Terkurung gunung seribu
Air mengalir sampai jauh
Akhirnya ke laut..

Itu perahu, riwayatmu dulu
Kaum pedagang s'lalu naik itu perahu..


Bengawan Solo, riwayat mu ini
Sedari dulu, jadi perhatian insani
Music kemarau, tak berapa airmu
Di musimhujan air meluap sampai jauh

Chorus:
Mata airmu dari Solo,
Terkurung gunung seribu
Air mengalir sampai jauh
Akhirnya kelaut

Itu perahu, riwayatnya dulu
Kaum pedagang selalu
Naik itu perahu
  

Solo, the Mighty River (ENGLISH)
by Gesang Martohartono


The mighty river Solo, your legend this,
From ages past, you captivated the goddess Sari,
In seasons dry, your water is low,
In rainy seasons, the water overflows into the horizon.

Chorus:
The spring of Solo
Locked in thousands of mountains.
Its water flows intot he distance,
At last to the sea.
That boat, legend of the past,
of traders, always going
by that boat.
