Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Nyeri ku dengan jari-jarinya
Singing my life with his words
– Nyanyian hirup abdi ku kecap-kecapna
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Telling my whole life with his words
– Ngabejaan sakabeh hirup mah jeung kecap na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
I heard he sang a good song
– Kuring ngadéngé manéhna nyanyi lagu alus
I heard he had a style
– Kuring ngadéngé manéhna boga gaya
And so I came to see him
– Jadi kuring datang ka manéhna
To listen for a while
– Ngadangukeun bari
And there he was this young boy
– Jeung aya manéhna budak ngora ieu
A stranger to my eyes
– Jalma nu teu dipikawanoh ku panon kuring
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Nyeri ku dengan jari-jarinya
Singing my life with his words
– Nyanyian hirup abdi ku kecap-kecapna
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Telling my whole life with his words
– Ngabejaan sakabeh hirup mah jeung kecap na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
I felt all flushed with fever
– Kuring ngarasa sagalana flushed kalawan muriang
Embarrassed by the crowd
– Emb ku balaréa
I felt he found my letters
– Kuring ngarasa manéhna manggihan surat surat kuring
And read each one out loud
– Jeung maca unggal hiji kaluar nyaring
I prayed that he would finish
– Kuring ngadoa yén manéhna bakal rengse
But he just kept right on
– Tapi manéhna ngan terus katuhu dina
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Nyeri ku dengan jari-jarinya
Singing my life with his words
– Nyanyian hirup abdi ku kecap-kecapna
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Telling my whole life with his words
– Ngabejaan sakabeh hirup mah jeung kecap na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
He sang as if he knew me
– Manéhna nyanyi saolah olah manéhna terang kuring
In all my dark despair
– Dina sagala putus asa poék kuring
And then he looked right through me
– Jeung saterusna manéhna melong katuhu ngaliwatan kuring
As if I wasn’t there
– Seolah-olah ku tak ada
And he just kept on singing
– Jeung manéhna ngan terus nyanyi
Singing clear and strong
– Nyanyi jelas jeung kuat
Strumming my pain with his fingers
– Nyeri ku dengan jari-jarinya
Singing my life with his words
– Nyanyian hirup abdi ku kecap-kecapna
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
Telling my whole life with his words
– Ngabejaan sakabeh hirup mah jeung kecap na
Killing me softly with his song
– Killing me lembut jeung lagu-na
