Attractive Enigma
D'Cromok Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ulek dengan jala jemala
Ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan tuannya puteri
Ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan jala jemala
Ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan puterinya dua
Puteri dua bersanggol sendeng
Puteri dua bersubang gading
Puteri dua berselendang kuning
Umbok mayang diumbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Nok ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan puterinya empat
Puteri empat berbaju serong
Puteri empat bersanggol sendeng
Puteri empat bersubang gading
Puteri empat berselendang kuning
Umbok mayang diumbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Nok ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan puterinya enam
Puteri enam berbaju serong
Puteri enam bersanggol sendeng
Puteri enam bersubang gading
Puteri enam berselendang kuning
Umbok mayang diumbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Nok ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan puterinya tujuh
Puteri tujuh berbaju serong
Puteri tujuh bersanggol sendeng
Puteri tujuh bersubang gading
Puteri tujuh berselendang kuning
Umbok mayang diumbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Nok ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan tuannya puteri
Tuan puteri berbaju serong
Tuan puteri bersanggol sendeng
Tuan puteri bersubang gading
Tuan puteri berselendang kuning
Umbok mayang diumbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Nok ulek mayang diulek
Ulek dengan tuannya puteri
Ku tahu asal usul mu
Yang laut balik ke laut
Yang darat balik ke darat
Nasi berwarna hamba sembahkan
Umbok mayang ku umbok
Umbok dengan jala jemala
Pulih mayang ku pulih
Pulih balik sedia kala
The song "Attractive Enigma" by D'Cromok is a traditional Malay folk song from Terengganu, a state in Malaysia. The lyrics describe the process of preparing and weaving the Ulek Mayang, a typical Terengganu dance prop made from palm leaves, and the accompanying dance performed by a group of women. The song begins with the weaving of the Ulek Mayang by the tuan puteri (princess) and her attendants, followed by the dance performed by increasing numbers of puteri (princesses) wearing traditional Malay dress.
The lyrics also reference the cyclical nature of life and the belief that everything returns to its origin. This is exemplified in the line "Yang laut balik ke laut, yang darat balik ke darat" (What comes from the sea returns to the sea, what comes from the land returns to the land). The final verse speaks of the restoration and renewal of the Ulek Mayang.
Overall, the lyrics of "Attractive Enigma" celebrate the beauty of traditional Malay culture and the importance of honoring and preserving cultural traditions.
