Indonesian Folk Music Medley 2024

You beat me to it smhhh
I remember hearing this when it first released bc my friends (who knew me as a language and culture enthusiast) and I saw the lyrics and was immediately struck with so, so many errors to the point where it was actually just sad, a lot of Indonesian folk songs lyrics online are sloppily made because most of them are made by news websites who prioritises clicks over accuracy, and those sloppy lyrics became widespread due to it, so at the time I consulted all of my friends who spoke said languages and we worked to actually try to write the correct lyrics, and this is what we came up with

Pabila kita ya tuan, suka menyanyi
Badanlah sehat, ya tuan, hati gembira

Tuténaya tuténaya parisina

[Bengawan Solo]
Bengawan Solo, rwayatmu ini
Sedari dulu jadi perhatian insani
Musim kemarau, tak b'rapa airmu
Di musim hujan, air meluap sampai jauh

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
