Translation of the song Rintihan Jack [Jack's Lament] artist The Nightmare Before Christmas (OST)

Jikalau ditanya tak ramai yang mempertikai

If you ask me, well not many people will deny it

Kehandalanku tak boleh lawan

No one can challenge me, speaking of my own greatness

Kalau membuat kejutan di malam terang

I can make a surprise even on the bright night

Ku bisa buat tanpa ku mencuba

I can do it without trying

Dengan sedikit sahaja keseramanku orang dewasa pun meneriak

Even the adults will scream with just a little bit of my spookiness

Ku hayunkan tangan dan ku menyergah

I wave my hand and I bawl

Mereka pun segera cabut lari

And they immediately scramble away

Namun setiap tahun tak pernah lain

There is no difference in every year

Ku mula bosan dengan satu rutin

I am starting to get bored with just a routine

Aku Jack, Raja Labu sudah muak hidup begini

I am Jack, the Pumpkin King is sick with this kind of life

Oh, kehampaan di tubuhku kian kuat, kian tumbuh

Oh, the feeling of emptiness in my body is getting stronger and getting bigger

Bagai ada seruan jauh

It seems like a call from afar

Keinginan tak kutahu

About my desire that I do not know

Aku Raja Seram dan jembalang cahaya

I am the King of Spookiness and phantom of light

Dan aku kan mencari mangsa

And I will seek for my victims

Semua menggeruni baik di Kentucky mahupun di England dan Perancis

Everyone is scared of me, either the one that is in Kentucky or England and even in France

Sebagai hantu kucabut kepalaku sambil membaca karya Shakspeare

As a ghost, I just take off my head while reading Shakspeare's work

Tiada apa pun bisa melaung seperti mana yang kulaungkan

No one is able to shout just like how I am shouting

Namun siapa yang kan mengerti sang Raja Labu yang sering tersengih

But who is the one that can understand The King of Pumpkin that keeps grinning?

Bosan bertahkta jika mereka tahu

If only they know how boring it is to be on the throne

Kan dia lepaskan jika dia mampu

They would let go of it if they are able to do so

Oh kehampaan di tubuhku mencari benda yang baharu!

Oh, the emptiness in my body is looking for something new!

Pujian datang setiap tahun

Every year, praises will come to me

Namun aku tetap pilu

But then, I still remain in grief
