Has anyone seen a wandering girl in townA
She is a beautiful dancer I used to knowB
My baby said she would never leave meC
But she broke every promise that she madeD
-
I am speaking about an Indonesian girlE
She likes to wear pretty dainty flowers in her hairF
I have been pining for love since she left meC
Will somebody help me to find herG
-
If you see her remind her of the one who is hurtingH
Ask her about the man she left behindI
Please tell her that I am anticipating her safe returnJ
And tell her that I love her all the sameK
-
If my darling knew how much I miss herG
She would come back and make me jollyC
If she knew how long I shall wait for herG
She would come back and turn my gray sky into blueL
-
From my heart I truly regret my mistakesM
If I could take back the foolish things I said and didN
I swear I would do it right awayO
Never again will I be selfish neither will I be vainP
-
Will she ever forgive my childish waysQ
Will she even consider starting overG
I wish I knew what she is doing nowR
Most of all I wish I knew where she isS
-
In time she may recall the pretty dainty flowersT
The ones in the lush flower gardenU
She will return and pick fresh roses for her hairF
And she will not wander off againV
-
Why did I treat my baby so inconsideratelyL
I was wrong and I admit my faultsW
My jealous heart could not see her innocenceX
She had always been faithful to meC
