Someone asked for a translation, which I don't know. Someone on another website has translated the lyrics to English as below, but if this needs corrections let me know and I will update it:
(advice to family member on wedding day)
Tururu (lalala), Tururu, Tururu
Tururu, Tururu, Tururu
Now that you are married, my aunt
Now that you are married, my brother
Behave, be respectful, be humble
Tururu (lalala), Tururu, Tururu
Tururu, Tururu, Tururu, Ah!
Tururu(lalala), Tururu, Tururu, King’s child
Tururu, Tururu, Tururu, King’s child!
Now that you are married, my sister
Now that you are married, brother
Behave, be respectful, be humble
Tururu (lalala), Tururu, Tururu
King’s child, King’s child, The King’s child can be a servant in a foreign land
(proverb to teach humility)
We used to gallivant around like cattle, my sister
We would pass time in song and carnival
Do not engage in silly talk or gossip
When you get to your new home
For the King’s child can be a servant in a foreign land,
The King’s child can be a servant in a foreign land
Tururu(lalala), Tururu, Tururu, King’s child
Tururu, Tururu, Tururu, King’s child!
We used to gallivant around like cattle, my sister
We would pass time in song and carnival, sounds…
Do not engage in silly talk or gossip
When you get to your new home
For the King’s child can be a servant in a foreign land,
The King’s child can be a servant in a foreign land
Behave, be respectful, be humble
Behave, be respectful, be humble
