Lyrics

Malay originalEnglish translation Filipino translation

Tak sabar kami menanti
Waktu rehat tiba lagi
Heboh, kecoh dan meriah
Bila dengan kawan sekolah

Jadi mari bersama kami
Disini
Lawak, gelak, rancak, borak
Semua di waktu rehat

We just can't wait any longer
Break time finally arrives
Excitement, sizzle and joy
When together with schoolmates

So come on and join us now
Together
Fun, laughter, lively, chatting
All during break time

'Di matiis na kami'y maghintay
Oras pahinga darating na
Tuwa, gulo at sigla
Kapag may kaibigang pang-eskwela

Kaya tara't samahan kami
Dito
Tawa, galak, husay, siksik
Lahat sa oras pahinga

Adam song, "Budak Baru"

Lyrics

| Aku Bedabaru Manjani kawa Ining dabadiru Meinkena nala Akumala beinyat sahuman Kamula bakulat and kaman
