Nak berkhabar tingginya budi kita ya tuan
Nak berkisah kaya tutur bicara
Kalau tinggi untung jadi bintang
Oh..oh..oh...oh..
Kalau rendah masih jadi intan

Teratak mahligai bak dipayung teduhnya
Bila budi melingkar anak asuhan
Adat yang lama berbudi berbahasa
Akar kehidupannya

Yang kurik itu kundi
Yang merah saga
Baik budi indahlah bahasa
Oh..oh..oh...oh
Pantun lama tinggi kiasannya

(solo):
Berpantun seloka sambil menari canggung
Serentak melangkah rentak timur diarak
Gurau senda
Sopannya dijaga
Sepakat makin kukuh terikat

Dihitung beratus-ratus bilangan
Digali beratus-ratus terpendam
Di lubuk yang mana
Tak terjangkau ingatan
Makin dibongkar makin banyak yang terpendam

Tersurat kurik itulah kundi
Tertulis merah itulah saga

Kundi dalam tarian indah lenggok tarinya
Aduhai indahnya
