Chapter 4: Lyrics and Dance Steps<br />
The tukang karang lyrics are sung to tunes borrowed from Western,<br />
Malay and Hindustani popular music. In the absence of scripts,<br />
the tukang karang had to improvise his lyrics ex tempore. Recent<br />
years have seen the increasing use of fixed scripts, sometimes following<br />
censorships by government licensing bodies. The first copies of<br />
each song in the Boria dance must introduce each group and duplicate,<br />
and this will be the chorus to this song in a Boria dance. Example<br />
as below:<br />
Boria Anak Tanjung<br />
Salam sejahtera kami ucapkan,<br />
Kepada hadirin yang kami muliakan,<br />
Kegebatan boria kita dengarlan,<br />
Boria Anak Tanjung mohon dendangkan.<br />
At the end of the event, Boria groups often ask for forgiveness if<br />
there is one during the dance event at that time. If we heard the<br />
sound function or words like in the example, it is a sign Boria dance<br />
event at that time was running out and completed. Example:<br />
Tamatlah sudah madah karangan,<br />
Kalau tersilap dimarah jangan,<br />
Budaya boria dibuat sebagai pegangan,<br />
Boria Anak Tanjung melambaikan tangan.
