Kembalikan dondang dendang
Bersua rindu yang lama
Serikan dondang dendang
Abadikan dondang dendang
bergema di serata benua
Selangkah megikut rentak
Rentak budi rentak bersajak
Kata madah hati pujangga
Bagai panah mencari jiwa
Firasat tinggalan ibunda
Searah menyusun gerak
Gerak tari gerak selambak
Sungguh indah seni pusaka
Bagai wajah penyeri rupa
Tersurat bicara rahsia
C\O
Mana kias mana senandung intan
Yang tak lekang dek panas
Takkan usang dek hujan
Mana kias mana senandung intan
Yang tak lekang dek panas
Takkan usang dek hujan
Usah sunyi lena didodoi zaman
Atau hanya tinggal kenangan
Masyhurkan dondang dendang
Kembalikan dondang dendang
Bersua rindu yang lama
Serikan dondang dendang
Abadikan dondang dendang
bergema di serata benua
Masyhurkan dondang dendang
Ceritakan dondang dendang
selama hasrat membara
Alunkan dondang dendang
Iramakan dondang dendang
Selagi hayat dijulang masa
Muyahayo muya lanakayo
Muya haye kalo labetaya
Le asale ala lade ama
Pi duniwa niwa la dunia
Le asale ala lade ama
Pi duniwa niwa la dunia
