Cambodian Songs/Lyrics

Have questions or resources regarding Khmer Culture? This forum is all about the Kingdom of Cambodia's culture. Khmer language, Cambodian weddings, French influence, Cambodian architecture, Cambodian politics, Khmer customs, etc? This is the place. Living in Cambodia can cause you to experience a whole new level of culture shock, so feel free to talk about all things related to the Khmer people, and their traditions. And if you want something in Khmer script translated into English, you will probably find what you need.

Aok Sokun Kanha - Lerk Ti Mouy

លើកទីមួយខ្ញុំខូចចិត្តព្រោះរឿងស្នេហា
Lerk Ti Mouy Khnom Koch Jet Pruah Rurng Sneha
For the first time im devastated because of love

លើកទីមួយមានអារម្មណ៍ថាឯកាខ្លាំង
Lerk Ti Mouy Mean Ahromn Tha Ai Ka Klang
For the first time i have a feeling that im very alone

លើកទីមួយបេះដូងយំ
Lerk Ti Mouy Behdong Yom
For the first time my heart cries

ទឹកភ្នែកស្រក់ហូរចុះផ្ទាំងផ្ទាំង
Dtuk Pnaek Srok Hur Joh Ptang Ptang
Tears pouring down the surface

ព្រោះមិនអាចរារាំងឃាំងឃាត់ចិត្តសង្សារ
Pruah Min Aich Rea Rang Khang Khoat Jet Songsa
Because i cant control my feelings for my boyfriend


លើកទីមួយឆ្កួតចិត្តព្រោះគេដល់ថ្នាក់ហ្នឹង
Lerk Ti Mouy Chkout Jet Pruah Ke Dil Tnoak Hnurng
For the first time im madly confused because he has reached that stage

លើកទីមួយខ្ញុំស្រវឹងព្រោះមនុស្សសាវា
Lerk Ti Mouy Khnom Srovung Pruah Mnus Sava
For the first time im crazy because of a fickle person

លើកទីមួយស្រែកខ្លាំងខ្លាំង
Lerk Ti Mouy Sraek Klang Klang
For the first time i scream so much

ឱ្យបានធូរស្បើយនៅក្នុងឱរា
Aoy Ban Tur Sbery Nov Knong Ara
To be able to relieve whats inside my chest

ចង់ប្រាប់ថាពេលនេះខ្ញុំពិបាកទ្រាំខ្លាំងណាស់
Jong Brap Ta Pel Nih Khnom Pi Bak Tram Klang Nas
Want to say that its very difficult for me to endure now


លើកទីមួយខ្ញុំឈឺចាប់ខ្លាំង
Lerk Ti Mouy Khnom Chhur Chab Klang
For the first time im hurting so much

លើកទីមួយយំលែងខ្មាសគេ
Lerk Ti Mouy Yom Laeng Kmas Ke
For the first time i cry to stop being timid

លើកទីមួយធ្វើចិត្តភ្លាមភ្លាមមិនបានទេ
Lerk Ti Mouy Tver Jet Pleam Pleam Min Ban Te
For the first time im not able to carry out my feelings straight away!

ព្រោះមិនធ្លាប់ជួបរឿងបែបនេះពីមុនមក
Pruah Min Tloap Juab Reurng Baep Nih Pi Mun Mok
Because before im not used to meeting this way


លើកទីមួយខ្ញុំឈឺចាប់ខ្លាំង
Lerk Ti Mouy Khnom Chhur Chab Klang
For the first time im hurting so much

លើកទីមួយយំលែងខ្មាសគេ
Lerk Ti Mouy Yom Laeng Kmas Ke
For the first time i cry to stop being timid

មិនដឹងថាត្រូវចំណាយពេលយូរប៉ុន្មានទេ
Min Dung Ta Trov Jomnay Pel Yur Bon Man Te
I dont know how much time that i must spend?

ទើបខ្ញុំអាចកាត់ចិត្តបានពីរូបគេ
Terb Khnom Aich Kat Jet Ban Pi Rub Ke
Then im able to stop loving him

បើស្នេហ៍គេខ្លាង
Ber Snei Ke Klang
Although i love him very much

Aok sokun Kanha - Mtes Na Min Hel (the Chilli is a reference to the Girls that she is jealous of, and whether they are a threat "spicy" or not)

តើម្ទេសឯណា ដែលថាមិនចេះហឹរ។
Ter Mtes Aii Naa Dael Tha Min Jeh Hel
Where are the Chilli's that i know are not spicy

បើមេ្ទសមិនចេះហឺរ
Ber Mtes Min Jeh Hel
if i know the chilli is not spicy

អូនក៏មិនប្រចណ្ឌដែរ។
Oun Kor Min Prochan Dae
then i am not jealous

តែគ្មានទេៗ
Tae Kmean Te Kmean Te
but without, without knowing!

ម្ទេសត្រូវតែហឺរហើយ។
Mtes Trov Tae Hel Hery
the chilli must already be spicy


អូនប្រចណ្ឌប្រុសស្នេហ៍
Oun Prochan Bros Snei
im jealous of the boy i love

ព្រោះតែស្រឡាញ់ថ្លៃ។
Pruah Tae Srolanh Tlai
only because i love him dearly

អូនប្រចណ្ឌរាល់ថ្ងៃ
Oun Prochan Rol Tngai
im jealous every day

ខ្លាចចរណៃបានទៅគេ។
Klach Jaronai Ban Tov Ke
the fear that beautiful women went with him

ទេអូនមិនព្រមទេ
Te Oun Min Prom Te
no, i dont approve!

អូនត្រូវតែប្រចណ្ឌ។
Oun Trov Tae Prochan
i must be jealous

Have you heard this one Jamie?

The neighbours play it about 10 times a day. I guess it's called the Duck Dance song.

started translating this one the other day, not completely proof read it yet, but think i got it pretty close first time, really catchy song...



បាត់សូន្យឈឹងបាត់ដំណឹងពីស្រីខ្មៅ
Bat Son Chhurng Bat Domnurng Pi Srey Kmao
completely lost track, lost awareness of the black girl

ចេញពីស្រុកទៅម្តេចមិនឃើញខ្មៅមកវិញ
Jenh Pi Srok Tov Mtech Min Khernh Kmao Mok Vin
she left the village and ive not seen the black girl come back?

ទ្រាំមិនបានក៏ទៅតាមដល់ភ្នំពេញ
Troam Min Ban Kor Tov Tam Dol Phnom Penh
not able to endure it so i go to pursue her in Phnom Penh

បើខ្មៅមិនវិលវិញបងទោម្នេញលុះមរណា
Ber Kmao Min Vil Vinh Bong Taomnenh Luh Mor Na
if the black girl doesnt return i will be frustrated until death


គ្មានឡានម៉ូតូ ជិះដំរីមក
Kmean Lahn Moto, Jih Domrey Mok
without car or moto, i come riding an elephant

ខ្មៅអូនទៅជ្រកកន្លែងណា
Kmao Oun Tov Jrok Kanlaeng Na
black girl where have you gone to take shelter?

ទូរស័ព្ទមិនចូល ជ្រួលពេញឱរ៉ា
Turosap Min Jol Jrual Penh Ara
i call telephone to not enter, full of panic

យ៉ាងណាយ៉ាងណាគិតយ៉ាងណា
Yang Na Yang Na Kit Yang Na
how, how, think how?


ខ្មៅអើយ ខ្មៅបងមកតាមរកស្រីខ្មៅ
Kmao Ery! Kmao Bong Mok Tam Rok Srey Kmao
Oh Black girl! black girl i come to search for the black girl

ខ្មៅអើយ ខ្មៅបងមកតាមរកខ្មៅគ្រប់ផ្សារ
Kmao Ery! Kmao Bong Mok Tam Rok Kmao Krub Psar
Oh black girl! black girl i come to search the whole market for the black girl

ជ្រកឌឿងហែមគ្មានចន្លោះកន្លែងណា
Jrok Durng Haem Kmean Janloah Kanlaeng Na
take shelter in the buildings without any space anywhere?

ព្រោះស្នេហាបងនៅចាំចាំចាំលុះក្ស័យ
Pruah Sneha Bong Nov Jam Jam Jam Luh Ksaey
because of love i stay waiting, waiting, waiting until i die


ងាកឆ្វេងស្តាំក៏មិនឃើញស្រមោលខ្មៅ
Ngeak Chhveng Sdam Kor Min Khernh Sromaol Kmao
Looking left and right i dont even see the black girls shadow!

សួរម៉ូតូឌុបទៅគាត់ក៏ថាមិនដឹងអី
Suar Moto Dob Tov Goat Kor Tha Min Dung Ey
asked the motodop to go then he said he didnt know?

ភ្នំពេញអើយ ឡានម៉ូតូខាប់ពេញដី
Phnom Penh Ery! Lahn Moto Kap Penh Dey
Oh Phnom Penh! Car, moto or a jar full of long peppers

ធ្វើម៉េចបានរូបស្រីជិះដំរីតាមរកខ្មៅ
Tver Mech Baan Rub Srey Jih Domrey Tam Rok Kmao
in what way can i get the girl? i ride the elephant to pursue the black girl!

In spite of its potential to spoil my sympathy for the track, could somebody fork out a translation?

Nah, didn't know that one. Will give it a go in a sec. Already found out that the song I posted is about originality, but a more detailed translation would be cool. Thx in advance.
