[Verse]
Protes sang gajah berdemonstrasi keras -The elephant protests loudly
Lahan petani kini jadi target deras - Farmers' land is now a heavy target
Kami hidup di tanah ini bertahun - We have lived on this land for years
Kalian buat sawit - You make palm oil
Kami tak menegur - We don't reprimand
[Verse 2]
Tanah ini kami punya sejak mula - We have owned this land since the beginning
Kini jadi jalan - Now it's a road
Kami bertanya apa guna - We ask what's the benefit
Sawah-sawah bertambah tanpa arti -The rice fields are increasing without meaning
Membunuh keluarga - Killing families
Sungguh keji - How cruel

[Chorus]
Kami gajah bersuara - We elephants speak
Dengar rintihan - Hear the groans
Habitat direnggut - Habitat is being taken away
Hanya untuk pembangunan - Only for development
Makan dan berlari - Eating and running
Di mana tempat kami - Where is our place
Pelan-pelan mati - Slowly dying
Di tanah yang kami miliki - On the land we own

[Verse 3]
Kalian bawa mesin besar seperti naga - You bring big machines like dragons
Menghancurkan rumah kami tak tersisa - Destroying our homes until nothing is left
Sawit yang kalian tanam bertambah luas - The palm oil you plant is getting wider
Kami yang mati pelan-pelan semakin jelas - We who die slowly are getting clearer

[Bridge]
Suara kami mungkin tak keras - Our voices may not be loud
Tapi lihat mata kami yang memelas - But look at our pitiful eyes
Jangan jadikan kami korban percuma - Don't make us victims in vain
Dengarkan jeritan kami dari hutan tua - Hear our screams from the old forest

[Chorus]
Kami gajah bersuara - We elephants speak
Dengar rintihan - Hear the groans
Habitat direnggut - Habitat is being taken away
Hanya untuk pembangunan - Only for development
Makan dan berlari - Eating and running
Di mana tempat kami - Where is our place
Pelan-pelan mati - Slowly dying
Di tanah yang kami miliki - On the land we own
