AcoustiClub | Indonesian Folk Song - Sio Mama (O, Mama) Cover @AcoustiClub | Uploaded January 2021 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
The song Sio Mama was created by Melky Goeslaw. This song was once popularized by the singer Emilia Contessa, Nanaku, and the late Glenn Fredly.

This song tells about the longing for an Ambonese child in overseas land and not seeing a mother in the village.

The meaning of this song is when a child remembers the time when his mother held him lovingly while cooking sago, a typical Ambonese dish.

here is lyrics and the meaning :

b'rapa puluh tahun lalu
several tens of years ago
beta masih kacile
when I was still a child
beta inga tempo itu
I remember that time
Sio Mama gendong-gendong betae..
Mom always carries me
sambil mama bakar sagu
while mom grilled sago
Mama manyanyi (Sio) bujuk-bujuk
Mama sang lullabies
la sampe basar bagini
until I am grown up as it is today
beta seng lupa Mama e…
I won't forget mom
Sio Mama e
Mom..
beta rindu mau pulang'e
I miss going home
Sio Mama e
Mom..
mama sulia… kurus lawange
Mom looks very thin
beta balom balas mama
I haven't repaid your kindness yet
Mama pung cape sio doloe
all mom’s exhaustion
Sio tete manise ee
Oh, my God
jaga beta pung mama ee..
take care of my mother
***
